ASSETS 2004 (October 18-20, 2004) focuses on computer-based system design and its application to the special needs of persons with disabilities. The conference's scope spans special needs associated with speech, motor, hearing, and vision impairments; cognitive limitations; emotional and learning disabilities; and aging. Researchers and developers, from both academia and industry, are invited to meet to exchange ideas and present reports on new hardware and/or software advances related to these areas.
The conference program covers a multitude of topics relevant to assistive technologies and universal accessibility and is structured around technical papers, poster sessions, demonstrations, panels, the doctoral consortium, and a host of social events.
ASSETS 2004 will be held at the Georgia Tech Global Learning Center at Technology Square, a state-of-the-art meeting and accommodation facility that combines all the amenities and modern technologies of tomorrow with a prime midtown Atlanta location. The hotel and conference center is fully accessible to all participants.
