This book constitutes extended revised selected papers presented during the 8th Workshop of Human-Computer Interaction Aspects to the Social Web, WAIHCWS 2017, held in Joinville, Brazil, in October 2017, and during the 9th Workshop of Human-Computer Interaction Aspects to the Social Web, WAIHCWS 2018, held in Belém, Brazil, in October 2018.

The two volume set IFIP 16478-16479 presents a series of revised papers selected from workshops that took place during the 20th IFIP TC13 International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, INTERACT 2025, held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil during September 10–12, 2025.The 56 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 94 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: HCI Education and Education for HCI: Current Opportunities and Challenges; Human-Centered Software Engineering: Balancing Interaction, Artificial Intelligence, and Human Value; Navigation for people with disabilities and older people: current challenges and opportunities; Technology Design for and with Neurodivergent Users: Considerations from Research Practices; Engineering Methods for HCI and UX in AI-Driven Systems; Transparent autonomy and human work interaction design; Addressing Global HCI Challenges at the Time of Geopolitical Tensions through Planetary Thinking and Indigenous Methodologies; Effective Map-based Interfaces and Interactions.

The views of leading researchers on the emerging topic of post-mortem digital legacy and posthumous interaction are explored in this book which combines the technical, cultural and legal aspects associated with this new branch of HCI. The technical aspects of emerging technologies, both for the web and mobile platforms, are analysed and useful information is provided for system development, requirements engineering, and data management and storage. The authors address the cultural aspects of virtual identity, ethical problems, cross-culture differences regarding memories and death, bereavement, taboos and beliefs, and the visual/verbal representations of death. The legal aspects covered include regulation, property, privacy and conflicts between international and local jurisdictions. The coverage of Digital Legacy and Interaction: Post-Mortem Issues is relevant to the development of systems that consider the influence of death, bereavement and mortality on Human Computer Interaction. The interdisciplinary approach that guides this book is intended to foster enriching and innovative discussions amongst HCI scholars and professionals. Cristiano Maciel and Vinícius Carvalho Pereira are researchers at LAVI (Laboratory of Interactive Virtual Environments) and professors at UFMT (Federal University of Mato Grosso, Brazil).
