Tutorials at the second IIiX symposium

Information Interaction in Context 2008 began with two half day tutorials. The role of a tutorial is to give a detailed introduction to a single topic related to the themes of the symposium. The first tutorial by Ayse Göker and her colleagues focused on information interaction in mobile environments. The second tutorial by Peter Ingwersen proposed and demonstrated a research framework for semi-controlled field studies in interactive IR. The contents of tutorials are summarized below.
