This book is concerned with the importance of Human Computer
Interaction (HCI), Usability, user participants, and
Sustainability in the Information Communication Technology (ICT)
industry throughout the world. ICT has become a crucial
instrument for communication, entertainment, commerce and
research and this increased usage is presenting new environmental
and sustainability issues as we try and meet the ever growing
needs of both businesses and individuals.

Sustainability must become central to the design of new
technologies to make a concerted effort to tackle the
environmental concerns we face now and for the future.
Development frameworks, tools and models are used and explored
and the New Participative Methodology for Sustainable Design
(NPMSD) is introduced as a way of identifying key factors needed
in developing more sustainable systems including new smart
technology and portable devices. It is hoped additional research
will be carried out in the future to assess these sustainable
design steps using larger, more diverse countries with developed
and developing economies to further refine such methods.
