Preface
It is our great pleasure to introduce this tribute to Clarisse Sieckenius de Souza’s research. When Clarisse established the Semiotic Engineering Research Group (SERG), in 1996, she managed to bring together not only her own students but also students from other areas who were inspired by her unique ideas and rigorous reasoning. We feel privileged to have been there in its inception and to have followed semiotic engineering’s evolution. It started as a theory of human-computer interaction (HCI), with a particular view of HCI as designer-to-user metacommunication, thus typifying HCI as a kind of computer-mediated communication (de Souza 2005). Later, semiotic engineering proposed to use some of its evaluation methods in scientific research in HCI (de Souza & Leitão, 2009) and, more recently, a set of epistemic tools to inform human-centered computing (de Souza et al. 2016). In this volume, several researchers who have in some way been touched by or contributed to Clarisse’s work have come together to participate in a range of conversations arou
