* Message from the Workshop Chairs *
We invite you to submit proposals for workshops at Mensch und Computer.
Workshops are a gathering place for attendees with shared interests to
meet in the context of a focused and interactive discussion. Workshops
are an opportunity to move a field forward and build community: a chance
to find people who care about the same issues, questions, and research
agendas as you. Workshops may address any topic relevant to the HCI
community, e.g., questions of basic research and applied research, HCI
practice, HCI education, new methodologies, emerging application areas,
ethics, sustainability, or design innovations. Most workshops (half or
full-day) take place on Sunday before the start of the technical
program, but workshops can also be run on Monday or Tuesday.
As Workshop Chairs, we will create a carefully curated list of workshops
that reflects the needs and desires of the community. Please note that
we might propose modifications and augmentations, such as suggesting
that workshops be combined where appropriate.
The workshop should address timely topics and phenomena; therefore, it
depends on the year in which topics are considered particularly relevant
and interesting. The space and technical limitations will also influence
the number and form of the selected workshops.

ABOUT
------
In 1960, Joseph Licklider envisioned "Man-Computer Symbiosis" where computation would augment human intellect. Today, as AI systems work alongside people in tasks from visual analytics to code generation, we are learning to design truly synergistic systems where humans and AI work flexibly together, leveraging their complementary abilities.
Following our successful first edition at AVI 2024 (https://synergy.trx.li/2024/), this workshop brings together researchers exploring the design, implementation, and evaluation of meaningful human-AI collaboration systems. The workshop will include consortium partners from the new €10M EU project TANGO "It takes two to tango: a synergistic approach to human-machine decision making".
TOPICS
-------
We invite submissions in four key areas:
- Interactive Decision-Making Systems: Real-time collaboration mechanisms, task allocation protocols, and approaches for handling uncertainty
- Adaptive Collaboration Frameworks: Dynamic systems that adjust to cognitive load and learn from human intervention
- Evaluation Methods: Novel approaches to measuring effectiveness of human-AI partnerships
- Implementation Architecture: Practical solutions and patterns for building collaborative systems
We particularly welcome submissions presenting concrete mechanisms, empirical evaluations, novel interaction patterns, and practical implementation challenges.
All submissions should demonstrate:
- Integration of both AI capabilities and human interaction aspects
- Consideration of practical design and implementation implications
- Clear connection to human-AI collaboration, even in theoretical or policy-focused work
SUBMISSION
----------
- Minimum 5 pages, CEUR-WS single column format

*CFP: 1st International Workshop on Web3 Applications and the eVolution
of dEcentralized finance (WAVE) 2025 @ IEEE ISCC 2025*
https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/wave2025/home
2-5 July 2025, Bologna, Italy
Accepted papers will be published by IEEE and will be available via the
IEEE Xplore.
*Motivation and Rationale*
Web3 and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) are two key factors of the new
Internet era. They are redefining the landscape of digital
communications and distributed systems, offering new opportunities for
secure, resilient, and scalable applications. The worldwide adoption of
Web3 is reshaping how users experience Internet services by including
concepts such as decentralization, democratization and rewarding in
existing services. The main engine of Web3 is blockchain technology.
However, there are numerous areas where there is room for improvement.
To begin with, most Web3 applications revolve around DeFi, however, the
decentralisation offered by blockchain technology could help plenty of
scenarios. Promising scenarios are supply chains, health, decentralized
storage, data sharing, power grids, virtual worlds (like the Metaverse)
and many more. Additionally, there are other scenarios where Web3 could
have a meaningful impact, including IoT, vehicular networks, cloud and
edge computing, digital identities, intellectual property management,
digital twins, and integration with the physical world. DeFi is still
quite far from perfect. Indeed, fungible and non-fungible assets are
constantly evolving to include more advanced functionalities as so to
increase their adoption. Moreover, DeFi was shown to be susceptible to
malicious activity, including fake NFTs, sleepminting, washtrading, rug
pull, pump and dump, Maximal Extractable Value and other scams. Finding
solutions to foresee and prevent such malevolent practices becomes
crucial for the true adoption of this technology. Lastly, blockchain
technology has some inherent limitations that are still to be addressed,
including creating efficient consensus protocols for public blockchains,
and secure channels for transaction confirmation among others.
The Web3 Applications and the eVolution of dEcentralized finance (WAVE)
workshop analyses the technological challenges and the potential of Web3
and DeFi applications. By bringing together researchers and
practitioners, the workshop aims to attract contributions that can
discuss how these emerging technologies can shape the future of
blockchain, and address the challenges of their adoption. Papers on both
theoretical and design aspects are welcomed, which describe and evaluate
novel design methods and system prototypes. The workshop also welcomes
work-in-progress and position papers.
*Topics*
We welcome submission on a wide range of topics, including but not
limited to:
Web3 Applications and Technologies
Web3 storage decentralization and data sharing
Novel Web3 applications (IoT, networks, cloud computing)
DLTs and Blockchain Technology
Blockchain security and performance
Adoption of blockchain in innovative scenarios
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and similars (e.g. GameFi, SocialFi)

the bibliography and any possible appendices. Submissions longer than 8 pages will be
rejected without review. All submissions will be reviewed by the Program Committee based on
technical quality, originality, significance, and clarity. For survey track paper, please preface the
descriptive paper title with “Survey:”, followed by the actual paper title. For example, a paper
entitled “A Literature Review of Streaming Knowledge Graph”, should be changed as “Survey: A
Literature Review of Streaming Knowledge Graph”. This is for the reviewers and chairs to clearly
bid and handle the papers. Once the paper is accepted, the word, such as “Survey:”, can be
removed from the camera-ready copy.
For special track paper, please preface the descriptive paper title with “SS##:”, where “##” is
the two digits special track ID. For example, a paper entitled “Incremental Knowledge Graph
Learning”, intended to target Special Track 01 (Machine learning and knowledge graph) should
be changed as “SS01: Incremental Knowledge Graph Learning”.
All manuscripts are submitted as full papers and are reviewed based on their scientific merit.
The reviewing process is single blind, meaning that each submission should list all authors and
affiliations. There is no separate abstract submission step. There are no separate industrial,
application, or poster tracks. Manuscripts must be submitted electronically in the online
submission system. No email submission is accepted. To help ensure correct formatting, please
use the style files for U.S. Letter as template for your submission. These include LaTeX and
Word.
