by Mahyar Tourchi Moghaddam

Call for Papers for the Second Submission Round of EICS 2024: The 16th ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems, June 24-28, 2024 - Cagliari, Italy https://eics.acm.org/2024/ Submission deadline for the 2nd Round of PACM EICS 2024 for Full Papers and Technical Notes: October 26, 2023 EICS 2024 is the sixteenth international ACM SIGCHI conference devoted to engineering interactive computing systems and their user interfaces, addressing one or more software quality factors, such as usability, user experience, reliability, security, etc. Work presented at EICS covers all stages of the engineering life-cycle of interactive systems -inception, requirements, design, specification, coding, data analytics, validation and verification, deployment, and maintenance. EICS has the longest tradition of bringing together researchers who contribute to better ways of creating interactive computing systems, stemming from the conference on command languages in the seventies. The conference is best known for rigorously contributing and disseminating research results that hold the midst in between user interface design, software engineering, and computational interaction. EICS focuses on models, languages, notations, methods, techniques, and tools that support designing, developing, validating, and verifying interactive systems. The conference brings together people who study or practice the engineering of interactive systems, drawing from design, HCI, software engineering, requirements engineering, software development, modeling, and programming. Submissions advance the state of the art of the engineering of interactive systems. Topics include, but are not limited to: * Modeling, specification, and analysis of interaction and interactive systems * Model-based development of interactive software * Requirements engineering for interactive systems * Methods, processes, principles and/or tools for building interactive systems (e.g., design, implementation, prototyping, evaluation, verification and validation, testing) * Software architectures for interactive systems * Formal methods within interactive systems engineering * Certification issues of methods, tools, and processes to create interactive systems * Frameworks, toolkits, domain-specific languages, and APIs for interactive systems * Languages and notations for describing user interfaces and interactions * Integrating engineering issues in the design process of interactive systems * Engineering design tools * Engineering evaluation tools * Supporting design in interactive development processes * Computational-Interaction Systems and Techniques * Interactive data-driven systems * Engineering interactive applications with emerging technologies (e.g., adaptive, context-aware, tangible, haptic, touch and multitouch input, voice, gestures, EEG, multimodal input, mobile and wearable systems, AI, (augmented, mixed, virtual) realities...) * Engineering hardware/software integration in interactive systems (e.g., fabrication and maker processes, physical computing, cyber-physical systems…) * Engineering interactive systems for various user categories (e.g., children, elderly, people with disabilities…) * Engineering interactive systems for various application domains (e.g., health, home, entertainment, desktop, avionics, space, nuclear, civil protection, law enforcement, emergency services, and calamity management...) * Engineering interactive systems for specific properties (user experience, usability, safety, security, dependability, …) * Engineering smart interactive systems (e.g., recommending, adaptive, intelligent) * Building Human-centred AI systems (integrating explainable AI, intelligible design, human-in-the-loop, adaptive and context-aware, interactive agents…) A newcomer’s guide to EICS is available at https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3300960 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FULL PAPERS and TECHNICAL NOTES SUBMISSIONS EICS Full Papers and Technical Notes are published as articles in the Journal Proceedings of the ACM on Human-Computer Interaction (PACM HCI - EICS series). There are three submission deadlines per year, and authors can choose when to submit. Papers follow the traditional journal model of reviewing: papers may be accepted after submission and review, or may be recommended for revisions and re-submission to the next round to enable authors to refine papers based on reviewer recommendations. Submissions for the journal of this venue should present original and mature research work within the scope of the conference. Note that accepted journal papers can be either regular research papers, or technical notes. Technical Notes are shorter, more focused contributions that focus specifically on system contributions and technical work. Elucidating technical details of complex interactive systems, preferably ensuring the work can be reproduced or put to practice, is a primary objective of a Technical Note. Tech Notes require an illustrative example of the system, and they can, but do not need to, be validated by formal user evaluations or user studies. Validation can also be done through, e.g., simulation, feasibility, or comparisons. Tech Notes will be judged on their technical merits and relevance to interactive systems concerns. There are no length restrictions on Full Papers and Technical Notes, nor any limit to the number of references that may be included. We advise authors to ensure the length of their papers is in function of the contributions. Concise and clear is often to be preferred over lengthy and verbose. Full Papers and Technical Notes should be written in the ACM format; see https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions The PACMHCI-EICS deadline for the Second Round of Full Papers and Technical Notes submissions is 26 October 2023. Papers are submitted using <https://new.precisionconference.com/>https://new.precisionconference.com<https://new.precisionconference.com/> EICS’24 Full Papers and Technical Notes chairs Carmen Santoro and Anke Dittmar

36th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE 2024): Last Call for Workshop Proposals

by Announce

*** Last Call for Workshop Proposals *** 36th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE'24) June 3-7, 2024, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus https://cyprusconferences.org/caise2024/ (*** Submission Deadline: October 13, 2023 AoE ***) CAiSE is a well-established, highly visible conference series on Advanced Information Systems (IS) Engineering. It covers all relevant topics in the area, including methodologies and approaches for IS engineering, innovative platforms, architectures and technologies, and engineering of specific kinds of IS. CAiSE conferences also have the tradition of hosting workshops in related fields. Workshops are intended to focus on particular topics and provide ample room for discussions of new ideas and developments. CAiSE 2024, the 36th edition of the CAiSE series, invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the main conference, related to the CAiSE topics, covering new emerging topics and targeting innovative papers in special focus areas. Prospective workshop organisers should specify whether they plan an event with a presentation-oriented track, a discussion-oriented track, or both. Presentation-oriented track This track focuses on accepted papers with presentations followed by Q&A sessions, akin to conferences. The proceedings of these workshops are intended to be published in a joint volume in the Springer LNBIP series. Submissions must  conform to the Springer LNCS/LNBIP format and should  not exceed 12 pages. According to the Springer standards, the overall acceptance rate cannot exceed 45%-50%. Discussion-oriented track This track emphasizes discussions facilitated by paper presentations revolving around novel ideas and early-stage research. Since the main criterion for paper acceptance in such workshops is relevance and potential for raising discussion, they are not expected to have their proceedings in the Springer LNBIP volume. The edition of a joint proceedings volume next to the LNBIP one for the discussion-oriented track is underway. Proceedings shall be submitted to CEUR-WS.org for online publication. Details on this aspect will be provided separately. Proposal submission Workshop proposals should be submitted via EasyChair at the following address:  https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=caise2024  Please select the Author role and the CAiSE 2024 Workshops track. Prior contact with the workshop chairs (caise2024-workshops(a)easychair.org) is encouraged. The organizer(s) of approved workshops will be responsible for advertising their workshop, eliciting high-quality submissions, organizing the reviewing process of their workshop’s papers according to the principles and guidelines of CAiSE, and collecting camera-ready copies of accepted papers (verifying that they comply with the formatting rules). Organizers (including co-organizers) are expected to attend their entire workshop. Detailed instructions for workshop proposers The proposal (up to 1000 words) should cover the following points: • Workshop title, duration (1 day or 2 days), preferred date (3-4 June 2024) • Workshop type (presentation-oriented or discussion-oriented, or both). • Information on the organizers (PC chairs, other organizers who will be present at the workshop or are otherwise involved, including the person responsible for web presence and communication). Please include names, addresses, and affiliations, indicating the main responsible person. The submission should include a one-paragraph biographical sketch for each organizer, describing relevant qualifications and experience. Please specify at least one PC chair. PC chairs will not be allowed to submit papers to the workshop, but other organizers (who will have no oversight over the review process) are encouraged to do so. • Purpose: What are the main goals of the workshop? Please list the workshop topics. How does the focus of the workshop differ from the main conference? How does the focus of the workshop differ from other potential CAiSE events? (Proponents are advised to look at the workshops and working conferences held at CAiSE 2022 and CAiSE 2023 and differentiate your scope from theirs.) • Organization of the workshop: Specify the type of contributions, distribution into sessions, type of sessions, etc. Mention if you plan to have any keynote speaker (please note that the conference organization will not cover fees, travel expenses, accommodation and registration costs of keynote speakers). Include any special requirements regarding infrastructure and room layout. • Tentative list of PC members. • An estimate of the number of papers to be accepted, and the number of attendees. If applicable, short information on previous editions of the workshop series (this should include submission, acceptance, and attendance information). Short information on your plans for advertising your workshop and making it highly visible. Services provided by CAiSE • EasyChair installation for the management of the workshop submissions (each organizer will be made chair of their own workshop). • Publication of papers in an LNBIP volume for presentation-oriented tracks, and in a CEUR-WS.org online volume for discussion-oriented tracks. • One free workshop-only registration if more than 10 people are registered for the workshop. Organizers willing to attend the whole event (main conference) will have to register for the conference at their own expense. • Local organizational infrastructure and administrative support (registration, badges, refreshments, beamers, screens, etc.). In particular, all venue issues (rooms, meals and catering, social dinner, etc.) as well as the management of the registrations and the financing/administrative issues will be handled by the CAiSE Organization Board and are not under the responsibility of the workshop organizers. • Advertisement of the workshop on the CAiSE 2024 homepage and mailings. Please note that the workshop may be canceled if the number of registrations is less than 10. Also, in the case of workshops with topics that are similar, two or more workshops may be suggested to merge together.

ACM IUI 2024 - Last Call for Papers (Abstracts are due tomorrow)

by Wanling Cai

* We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CfP * * For the online version of this Call, visit: https://iui.acm.org/2024/call_for_papers.html * ACM IUI 2024: 29th International ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces Greenville, South Carolina, USA March 18-21, 2024 ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (ACM IUI) 2024 is the 29th annual premiere venue, where researchers and practitioners meet and discuss state-of-the-art advances at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Ideal IUI submissions should address practical HCI challenges using machine intelligence and discuss both computational and human-centric aspects of such methodologies, techniques and systems. In addition to traditional IUI themes, we add this year a new theme of Large Language Models (LLMS) for the people. As LLMs become more powerful and more accessible, end users can interact with them in various ways and a wide variety of new applications become feasible. This raises new research questions regarding the interaction between users and generative AI models, including the design of new interactions and intelligent systems, when to trust systems powered with LLMs, fairness in LLMs, studying the effect of such models on people’s work and aligning user expectations with model capabilities. As always, contributions to IUI are expected to be supported by rigorous evidence appropriate to the claims (e.g., user study, system evaluation, computational analysis). Contributions are welcome from all relevant arenas, including academia, industry, government, and non-profit organizations. We strongly believe that diverse insights are critical to the vitality of the IUI community and the conference will accept papers for both long and short oral presentations. ** Topics ** IUI topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Usable Large Language Models and Generative AI * End-user interaction with LLMs and Multimodal models (e.g., chatbots, image generation) * LLMs in the workplace * Trustworthy LLMs * Bias in LLMs * The effects of LLMs use on creative tasks * Personalized user interaction with LLMs * Prompt Engineering * User control and steering of LLMs (e.g. RLHF) - Human-centered AI methods, approaches, and systems * Explainable AI methods * Democratization of AI * Persuasive technologies in IUI * Privacy and security of IUI * Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design and generation * User modelling for intelligent interfaces * User-adaptive interaction and personalization * IUI for crowd computing and human computation - Computational innovation * Interactive machine learning * Human-in-the loop AI testing and debugging * Human-centered recommendation and recommender systems * Human-in-the-loop reinforcement learning * Intelligent user interfaces for generative AI - Innovative User Interfaces * Affective interfaces * Intelligent aesthetic interfaces * Intelligent collaborative interfaces * Intelligent AR/VR interfaces * Intelligent visualization and visual analytics * Intelligent wearable and mobile interfaces * Intelligent tangible interfaces - Intelligent Multimodal Systems * Embodied agents * Multimodal AI assistants * Intelligent multimodal interfaces - Evaluations of Intelligent User Interfaces * User experiments and studies * Reproducibility (including benchmarks, datasets, and challenges) * Meta-analysis * Mixed-methods evaluations - Applications IUI * Education and learning-related technologies * Healthcare and wellbeing * Automotive * Assistive technologies * Entertainment * Workplace happiness * Social media * Information retrieval * Internet of things (IoT) * Smart cities * Generative AI ** Papers ** We invite original paper submissions that are not under consideration elsewhere. This year, there is no page limit on the papers (however, we strongly encourage authors to not exceed 10,000 words) and no formal distinction between long and short papers will be made. However, we expect the paper length to be commensurate with the scientific values and contribution of the work. Authors of papers that exceed 12,000 words should add a note at the end of their manuscript explaining how the length of the paper is commensurate with the contribution of the work. Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation indices. A selected set of accepted top quality full papers will be invited to submit their extended versions for publication in an ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS) special issue titled "Highlights of IUI 2024" that will appear in 2025. All accepted papers will be invited for oral presentation as part of the main conference program. Additionally, all authors of accepted papers are invited to present a poster of their work during the poster session. ** Highlights of this year ** We also encourage authors to discuss potential ethical considerations of their work; aspects pertaining to current societal issues; diversity, inclusion, and equality; and other topics under the broad responsible AI topic. Reflection of practical and societal impact * We encourage authors to consider practical and societal implications of their work (as well as its shortcomings) throughout their projects and to include a reflection on those implications in their papers, in particular how the proposed methods and insights could be applied and deployed in a realistic setting and how they can improve people's lives in the real world. * We also encourage authors to discuss potential ethical considerations of their work in terms of diversity, inclusion, and equality; and other topics under the broad responsible AI topic and its societal impact. We recognize that technology is rarely neutral --- simply by making some things easier than others, it reshapes society (Winner, 1980; Green, 2020). Further, given the incredibly short invention-to-application cycles for AI-related technologies, it is becoming increasingly unlikely that “somebody else” will carefully consider how an emerging intelligent user interface technology might impact the world before this technology is deployed. Because it is often difficult to anticipate the cumulative or indirect impacts of an invention, we provide a few concrete suggestions to consider throughout the research process and for reflecting on one’s work at the end. * Our purpose is to help authors ensure that the likely societal consequences of their work are consistent with their intentions and values. For colleagues who are not yet experienced with incorporating societal impacts into their IUI research but who are willing to give it a try, we prepared some simple ideas to consider. ** Submission instructions ** Important dates * Abstract submission- Oct 2th, 2023 * Full Submission - Oct 9th, 2023 * Initial decisions released - Dec 14th, 2023 * Rebuttal period (by invitation only)- Dec 14th-20th, 2023 * Notifications sent - Jan 5h, 2024 * Camera Ready submission - Jan 25th, 2024 Platform * All materials must be submitted electronically to PCS 2.0 http://new.precisionconference.com/~sigchi by the abstract and paper deadline. * In PCS 2.0, first click "Submissions" at the top of the page, from the dropdown menus for society, conference, and track select "SIGCHI", "IUI 2024" and "IUI 2024 Papers", respectively, and press "Go". Anonymization * ACM IUI uses a double-blind review process. All submissions (and supplemental materials) must be appropriately anonymized according to the following guidelines: * Authors’ names and affiliations are not visible anywhere in the paper. * Acknowledgements should be anonymized or removed during the review process. * Self-citations should be included where necessary but must use the third person. For example, "... as shown in our previous user study [2] ... " is not allowed, whereas "... as shown in Smith et al. [2] " is acceptable (because in this case the citation [2] will NOT be perceived as self-citation). * Failure to follow these guidelines may result in submissions being desk rejected without review. * Authors should also be aware of the SIGCHI Policy for Submission and Review at SIGCHI Conferences. Accessibility * Authors are asked to make their paper submissions accessible (so that reviewers with vision impairments can access them, for example). The authors of accepted papers will be required to make their final PDFs accessible. Please use the SIGCHI Guide to an Accessible Submission for detailed instructions. * If you are submitting a video as supplemental material, please provide captions, as described in Technical Requirements and Guidelines for Videos. * Please refer to the Accessibility page for further details and guidelines. Submission format and length * We will adopt the ACM TAPS Workflow. * Prepare your submission for review in a single column format, using the latest templates: Word Submission Template, or the LaTeX template using \documentclass[manuscript,review,anonymous]{acmart} for the LaTeX template. * Papers are of variable length. Paper length must be based on the weight of the contribution. We encourage authors to stay within a 10,000 word limit. Authors of papers exceeding 12,000 words should add a note at the end of their manuscript explaining how the length of the paper is commensurate with the contribution of the work.

36th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE 2024): First Call for Papers

by Announce

*** First Call for Papers *** 36th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE'24) June 3-7, 2024, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus https://cyprusconferences.org/caise2024/ (*** Submission Deadline: November 24, 2023 AoE ***) The CAiSE’24 organization calls for full papers with a special emphasis on the theme of Information Systems in the Age of Artificial Intelligence. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative technology, revolutionizing various industries, and its significance in Information Systems cannot be overstated. AI-powered systems have the potential to streamline operations, enhance decision-making processes, and drive innovation across organizations. From data analysis to automated processes, AI is reshaping the way we leverage information in the digital age. The relevance of AI in IS extends beyond internal operations. AI-powered predictive analytics enables organizations to forecast trends, anticipate customer needs, and optimize resource allocation. This empowers businesses to adapt swiftly to changing market dynamics, gain a competitive edge, and make proactive decisions. AI algorithms can also detect anomalies and patterns that indicate potential security breaches, contributing to robust cybersecurity measures in information systems. However, while acknowledging the benefits, it is essential to consider the ethical implications of AI in information systems. Ensuring data privacy, addressing bias in algorithms, and maintaining transparency are vital aspects that need to be carefully managed and regulated to foster trust and accountability. In addition to offering an exciting scientific program, CAiSE’24 will feature a best paper award, a journal special issue, and a PhD-thesis award: • Best Paper Award‚ prize EUR 1000 (sponsored by Springer) • A small selection of best papers will be invited to submit enhanced versions for consideration in a special issue of Elsevier Information Systems journal dedicated to this conference. • PhD-Thesis Award • Best PhD thesis of a past CAiSE Doctoral Consortium author (co-sponsored by the CAiSE Steering Committee and Springer) Papers should be submitted in PDF format. Submissions must conform to Springer‚ LNCS format and should not exceed 15 pages, including all text, figures, references, and appendices. Submissions not conforming to the LNCS format, exceeding 15 pages, or being obviously out of the scope of the conference, will be rejected without review. See the guidelines here: https://www.springer.com/comp/lncs/authors.html . The results described must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Three to five keywords characterizing the paper should be listed at the end of the abstract. Each paper will be reviewed by at least two program committee members and, if positively evaluated, by one additional program board member. The selected papers will be discussed among the paper reviewers online and during the program board meeting. As the review process is not blind, please indicate your name and affiliation on your submission. Accepted papers will be presented at CAiSE’24 and published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) conference proceedings. We invite three types of original and scientific papers. The type of submission must be indicated in the submission system. Each contribution should explicitly address the engineering or the operation of information systems, clearly identify the information systems problem addressed, the expected impact of the contribution to information system engineering or operation, and the research method used. We strongly advise authors to clearly emphasize these aspects in their paper, including the abstract. Technical papers describe original solutions (theoretical, methodological or conceptual) in the field of IS Engineering. A technical paper should clearly describe the situation or problem tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution suggested and its potential‚ as well as demonstrate the benefits of the contribution through a rigorous evaluation. Empirical papers evaluate existing problem situations including problems encountered in practice, or validate proposed solutions with scientific means, i.e., by empirical studies, experiments, case studies, experience reports, simulations, etc. Scientific reflection on problems and practices in industry also falls into this category. The topic of the evaluation presented in the paper as well as its causal or logical properties must be clearly stated. The research method must be sound and appropriate. Exploratory papers describe completely new research positions or approaches, in order to face a generic situation arising because of new ICT tools, new kinds of activities, or new IS challenges. They must precisely describe the situation and demonstrate why current methods, tools, ways of reasoning, or meta-models are inadequate. They must also rigorously present their approach and demonstrate its pertinence and correctness in addressing the identified situation. The topics of contribution include but are not limited to: • Novel Approaches to IS Engineering ◦ Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning ◦ Robotic Process Automation (RPA) ◦ Big Data, Data Science and Analytics ◦ Blockchain applications in IS ◦ Simulation and Digital Twins  ◦ IS for collaboration and social computing  ◦ Virtual reality / Augmented Reality ◦ Context-aware, autonomous and adaptive IS • Models, Methods and Techniques in IS Engineering ◦ Ontologies and Ontology Engineering ◦ Conceptual modeling, languages and design ◦ Requirements engineering ◦ Process modeling, analysis and improvement ◦ Process automation, mining and monitoring ◦ Models and methods for evolution and reuse ◦ Domain and method engineering ◦ Product lines, variability and configuration management ◦ Compliance and alignment handling ◦ Active and interactive models ◦ Quality of IS models for analysis and design ◦ Visualization techniques in IS ◦ Decision models and business intelligence ◦ Knowledge graphs ◦ Human-centered techniques • Architectures and Platforms for IS Engineering ◦ Distributed, mobile and open architecture ◦ Big Data architectures ◦ Cloud- and edge-based IS engineering ◦ Service oriented and multi-agent IS engineering ◦ Multi-platform IS engineering ◦ Cyber-physical systems and Internet of Things (IoT) ◦ Workflow and Process Aware Information Systems (PAIS) ◦ Handling of real time data streams ◦ Content management and semantic Web ◦ Crowdsourcing platforms ◦ Conversational agents (chatbots) ◦ Microservices design and deployment • Domain-specific and Multi-aspect IS Engineering ◦ IT governance ◦ eGovernment ◦ Autonomous and smart systems (smart city management, smart vehicles, etc.) ◦ IS for healthcare ◦ Educational Systems and Learning Analytics ◦ Value and supply chain management ◦ Industry 4.0 ◦ Sustainability and social responsibility management ◦ Privacy, security, trust, and safety management ◦ IS in the post-COVID world Submit your paper using the Easy Chair link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=caise2024 .
