The International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction EWHCI '93 was thethird conference in a series which started in 1991 in Moscow. Like its predecessors, it was occasioned by the long separation of workers in HCI from one another and the new opportunity to learn from one another and to start cooperations with each other. The conference was international,with papers and participants from 16 countries. This volume contains a selection of the best papers presented at the conference. The papers are grouped into parts on: foundations of HCI; techniques, tools and paradigms for interface design; information visualization; empiricalstudies; multimedia; hypertext; customizing interfaces; teaching and learning; applications.
