The Graphics Interface (GI) conference is the oldest continuously-scheduled conference devoted to computer graphics, and human-computer interaction. GI was held biannually between 1969 and 1981, and has been held annually since then. Prior to 1982, the conference was called Canadian Man-Computer Communications Conference (CMCCC).[1][2]

This conference is sponsored by the Canadian Human-Computer Communications Society.

Awards

The Canadian Human-Computer Communications Society honours the memory of Michael A. J. Sweeney through an annual award to the best student paper presented at each year's Graphics Interface conference.

Alain Fournier [3] and Bill Buxton [4] Ph.D. Dissertation Annual Awards are given to best dissertations in Computer Graphics and Human-Computer Interaction defended in a Canadian University, and are announced officially during the Graphics Interface conference.
