HCIR 2010: the fourth international workshop on human-computer interaction and information retrieval

This report describes the 2010 workshop on Human-Computer Interaction and Information Retrieval. Now in its fourth year, the event was held in August 2010 in conjunction with the Information Interaction in Context Symposium. The workshop brought together researchers from academia, industry, and government and a range of disciplines to present and discuss their research. We had a record 70 attendees, making this the largest of our workshops to date. New for this year, we ran a challenge, and six research groups participated.
