SIGDOC’s Mission

SIGDOC is the ACM Special Interest Group on Design of Communication. Our mission is to advance the state of knowledge, encourage the research, and support the interdisciplinary practice of the design of communication. We provide a forum for researchers, teachers, and practitioners of technical writing, information architecture and design, user experience, usability studies, computer documentation, disability studies, game studies, and other relevant fields to share research and best practices by participating in our annual conference, ad hoc committees, or multiple publication outlets—particularly our flagship publication, Communication Design Quarterly.
