[Save the date] UI Engineering Live Talks - Célia Martinie - May 26, 14:00 CET

by Davide Spano

Dear colleagues, we are starting a new activity at the IFIP WG 2.7/13.4: the UI-Engineering Live Talks. The group will organize a bimonthly webinar given by a group member or by an invited expert. Group members will participate in the online meetings, while the live stream on YouTube will be publicly available. Our group member Célia Martinie will give the inaugural talk on the 26th of May at 14:00 CET. We would be delighted by your participation. Title: Considering modelling techniques in HCI engineering education Speaker: Célia Martinie, IRIT, France Link: https://www.youtube.com/live/WKkEGSON1AM?feature=share Abstract: Teaching HCI requires to take into account the field’s diverse perspectives (e.g. interaction design, human factors, software development…), as well as its constant state of change (e.g. new contexts, new devices, new programming languages…). Teaching HCI engineering particularly focuses on preparing students to the design, development and implementation of usable and effective interactive computing systems. Amongst the engineering approaches that can be taught for that purpose, model-based techniques are interesting because they match the industry needs for techniques to develop usable and reliable interactive computing systems. Beyond this concrete motivation for teaching students how to build and use models, models are also interesting because they help students to reason and understand problems, and can even make them better at identifying and solving problems. However, students do not always understand the benefits of using modelling techniques, and can find them abstract, cumbersome and worthless to use. The purpose of this presentation is to discuss the importance of teaching modelling for HCI engineering, especially in a context where new technologies and new methodology trends are continuously emerging. Several strategies can be envisioned to increase the involvement of students with modelling techniques and I will detail one possible strategy. -- [image: photo] Prof. Lucio Davide Spano Dipartimento di Matematica e Informatica Università di Cagliari Via Ospedale 72, 09124, Cagliari, Italy Tel: +39 070 675 8760 Website <https://www.unica.it/unica/page/it/luciod_spano> | RG <https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Lucio_Spano> | ORCHID <https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7106-0463>

by amon rapp

*** Apologies for cross postings *** *BehavRec Workshop @RecSys 2023 - Call For Papers - *** DEADLINE July, 18 *** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- International Workshop on Behavior Change and Persuasive Recommender Systems co-located with the 17th ACM Conference on Recommender Systems (RecSys ’23) Singapore, 18th-22nd September 2023 Web: https://behavrec.wordpress.com/ Submission site: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=behavrec23 For any information: amon.rapp(a)unito.it ========= ABSTRACT ========= For solving a variety of personal and societal problems, changing human behavior is crucial. Persuasive and behavior change recommender systems are intentionally designed to provide users with suggestions on how to modify their behavior, habits, beliefs and opinions. Research in this area has advanced over the years attracting interest from both practitioners and researchers also due to the increasing availability of personal data, like medical records, physiological parameters, and psychological states, which may enable novel forms of tailored suggestions that can be delivered anywhere at any time, leveraging multiple technologies (e.g., natural language processing) and different devices (e.g., ambient, wearable and mobile devices). The BehavRec workshop aims to provide a forum for discussing open problems and innovative research approaches in this area. Some questions that motivate the workshop are: What kind of data should be used to design “persuasive” recommendations? How should they be delivered? What kind of strategies should be implemented to design timely and contextualized persuasive recommendations? What kind of theories should we rely on to design effective persuasive recommendations? How to support the user’s motivation and help them sustain the desired behavior in the long term? What contextual factors may affect the effectiveness of behavior change recommender systems and should be considered in design? This workshop will deepen the discussion of novel approaches and applications of recommender systems that might want to persuade users into taking beneficial actions in domains as diverse as health and wellness, safety and security, food and environmental sustainability, education and politics. ====== TOPICS ====== Topics of interest include but are not limited to: ∑ RECOMMENDER SYSTEMS – Persuasive and Behavior change recommender systems – Health recommender systems – Food recommender systems – Recommender systems for education – Persuasive conversational recommender systems ∑ USER INTERFACES FOR PERSUASIVE AND BEHAVIOR CHANGE RECOMMENDER SYSTEMS – Visual interfaces – Context-aware interfaces – Ubiquitous, wearable and mobile interfaces – Conversational interfaces ∑ NEW APPROACHES TO DESIGNING AND DELIVERING PERSUASIVE RECOMMENDATIONS – Controllability, transparency, and explainability – Persuasive recommendation (e.g., argumentation-aware recommendation) – Cultural differences (e.g., culture-aware recommendation) – Context-aware recommendation – How to balance the cost and benefit of behavior change recommender systems – Challenges and limitations of implementing behavior change recommender systems ∑ ETHICS, PRIVACY AND THEORIES – Theories of behavior change and persuasion – How to develop ethical and privacy-sensitive behavior change recommender systems – Frameworks and models for developing personalized persuasive technology – Objective and subjective approaches to behavior change recommendations ∑ EVALUATION – Empirical studies and evaluations of recommender systems for behavior change – Evaluation methods and metrics (e.g., evaluation questionnaire design) – Case studies and examples of behavior change recommender systems – Success and failure stories with regard to behavior change recommender systems – Long-term evaluation and evidence of long-term effects of behavior change recommender systems. ============ SUBMISSIONS ============ We accept four kinds of submissions: (A) Regular papers (5-12 pages + references - single-column CEURART style) (B) Position papers, Ongoing projects and Demos (5-8 pages + references - single-column CEURART style); (C) Journal papers (already published - 2 pages including abstract, highlights, and a pointer to the complete paper single-column CEURART style); (D) Manifestations of interest (max 2 pages including a bio of the participant and a brief statement about why they are interest in the workshop) Submission site: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=behavrec23 All submitted papers will be evaluated by two members of the program committee, based on originality, significance, relevance, and technical quality. Note that the references do not count toward page limits. Submissions should be single-blinded, i.e. authors’ names should be included in the submissions. We aim to publish all accepted papers, except from the (C-D) submission type in CEUR WS Proceedings, as a joint volume. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the workshop. The templates and format instructions are available here: https://ceur-ws.org/HOWTOSUBMIT.html ================ IMPORTANT DATES ================ Early submission are strongly encouraged. We adopt a rolling review system: early submissions will be immediately reviewed and the notification will be sent out approximately two weeks after the submission. * Paper submission final deadline: July 18, 2023 (GMT) * Paper notification: August 18, 2023 (GMT) * Camera-ready version deadline: September 10, 2023 ============= ORGANIZATION ============= Amon Rapp University of Torino, Torino, Italy Federica Cena University of Torino, Torino, Italy Christoph Trattner University of Bergen, Norway Rita Orji Dalhousie University, Canada Julita Vassileva University of Saskatchewan, Canada Alain Starke University of Amsterdam, Netherlands

[CFP] ACM GoodIT 2023 -- extended deadline for all the track: June, 1

by Catia Prandi

*** Apologies for cross-posting *** === ACM GoodIt 2023 Call for Papers === ACM GoodIT 2023 will focus on the application of IT technologies to social good. Social good is typically defined as an action that provides some sort of benefit to the general public. ### Important Dates -> All tracks Submission extended deadline: June 1 -> Notification of acceptance: July 7th, 2023 ### Link http://goodit.campusfc.unibo.it/ ### Scope The ACM GoodIT conference seeks papers describing significant research contributions related to the application of information technologies (IT) to social good. The latter is defined as something that provides a benefit to the general public, such as clean air, clean water, internet access, education, or healthcare. However, new media innovations and the proliferation of online communities have added new meaning to the term. Social good can now reflect global citizens uniting to unlock the potential of individuals, technology, and collaboration towards a positive societal impact. The conference will feature regular and special tracks papers, work-in-progress and PhD papers. ### Papers length * Full papers (main track and special tracks): papers must not exceed twelve (12) single-column pages, excluding references. Papers with a length disproportionate to their contribution will likely be rejected. * Work in Progress Tracks Papers: papers must not exceed eight (8) single-column pages, excluding references. * PhD Tracks Papers: papers must not exceed five (5) single-column pages, excluding references. ### Publication of papers Submitted papers (in each of the special tracks) must be original works and must not have been previously published. They will be peer-reviewed (three reviews). All accepted and presented papers will be included in the conference proceedings published in ACM Digital Library. At least one of the authors of all accepted papers must register and present the work in presence at the conference; otherwise, the paper will not be published in the proceedings. _________________________________________ Catia Prandi, PhD.
