[EICS 2023] Second Round CfP for the 15th ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems (EICS)

by Carmen Santoro

Call for papers for the Second Submission round for EICS 2023 : The 15th ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems June, 2023 - Swansea, UK https://eics.acm.org/2023/ Submission deadline for the Second round of PACM EICS 2023: October 24, 2022 EICS 2023 is the fifteenth 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 - 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. New from this year: 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 above lengthy and verbose. Full Papers should be written in the ACM format, see https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions The PACM-EICS submission deadline for the Second round of submissions is 24 October 2022. Papers are submitted using https://new.precisionconference.com PACM-EICS Full Papers and Technical Notes chairs for EICS 2023, Kris Luyten and Carmen Santoro

Deadline Extended: Workshop on Designing Accessible Systems for Users with Multiple Impairments

by Sayan Sarcar

*Based on popular demand, we have extended the submission deadline to Friday 30th September* We invite researchers and assistive technologists to share their perspectives related to challenges in designing accessible systems and assistive technologies that consider the multidimensional and often complex needs of users with multiple impairments. Workshop date: 23rd October 2022 (via Zoom) Historically, the accessibility community has focused on designing assistive technologies and systems related to single categories of impairments. While this approach is justifiable and contributes to the advancement of the field, many researchers argue that designing technologies for one impairment at a time contributes to an oversimplification of disability and does not reflect the real-world experiences of a significant number of users who live with multiple impairments. How can the accessibility field leverage theories and concepts from other disciplines (e.g. disability studies, medical humanities, social work, engineering, education) to support more appropriate and inclusive technologies for users with complex needs? How can future assistive technologies consider diverse sensory, cognitive, and physical characteristics? Please note that any prior experience with users with multiple impairments is not a requirement for participating in this workshop. More information about abstract submission and registration can be found here: https://www.mpdas-assets22.org/home Deadline to submit your contribution: *30th September 2022* Looking forward to having you join us! -- Workshop Organizing Committee
