[Hcitaly] VL/HCC 2023 call for posters (due June 28), tutorials (due June 30), grad consortium (due July 7)

VL/HCC 2023: IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing https://conf.researchr.org/home/vlhcc-2023 The IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing is the premier international forum for research on this topic. Established in 1984, the mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling, and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people. The 2023 symposium is scheduled to take place October 2-6 in Washington, DC, USA. VL/HCC 2023 is 100% Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC). We invite you to consider submitting work to our posters/showpieces, tutorials, and graduate consortium tracks: (due June 28 AoE) Posters and Showpieces (due June 30 AoE) Tutorials ***NEW*** (due July 7 AoE) Graduate Consortium ---------------------- Posters and Showpieces Submission deadline: June 28, 2023 AoE The Posters and Showpieces track (called the “showpieces track” for short) offers an interactive opportunity to discuss recent research, experiences, challenges, ideas, prototypes, and accomplishments with the VL/HCC community. Formerly called “posters and demonstrations”, the category now includes posters, videos, downloadable apps, handouts, electronic devices, physical prototypes, or any other artifacts that facilitate meaningful interactions with other conference attendees. A broad range of topics are appropriate for showpieces. The following non-exhaustive list illustrates the possibilities: - Current research in progress. This might include: - Original or innovative technologies or prototypes that may or may not be accompanied by an evaluation - Short qualitative or quantitative studies - Reflections, provocations, or proposals about theory or methods - Results presented in the main VL/HCC conference - Results already presented at another conference or published in a journal - Existing commercial products and/or services - Efforts aimed at integrating research into education - Efforts aimed at commercializing research Showpieces can help accomplish many goals, such as: - Helping graduate student presenters to meet faculty from other universities - Building community interest in a novel way of approaching a research topic - Starting conversations that could lead to new collaborations - Demonstrating to industry sponsors that a specific line of research has practical applications - Showcasing products or services available for sale More details: https://conf.researchr.org/track/vlhcc-2023/vlhcc-2023-posters-and-showpiec… Tutorials Submission deadline: June 30, 2023 AoE The 2023 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC) invites proposals for tutorials to be held in conjunction with the symposium. Tutorials allow conference attendees to expand their knowledge by introducing researchers to emerging areas or new technologies, or providing an overview of the state of the art in an existing research area. Tutorials should be on topics related to the conference, such as (but not limited to) end-user programming, visual programming, domain-specific languages, software visualization, and CS education. Tutorial organizers must submit a proposal package and may either be accepted or rejected. The preferred format for tutorials is either a half day or full-day standalone session. However, we are also happy to consider alternative or experimental topics and formats. If the tutorial is accepted, then both the symposium organizers and the tutorial organizers will publicize the event to help ensure that it draws a sufficient number of attendees. Please note that a tutorial may be cancelled due to low registration if the number of participants (including the organizers) is less than fifteen. Please submit proposals via email by June 30, 2023. Decision notifications will be sent by Friday, July 7, 2023 at the latest.

This development paradigm enables the creation and deployment of fully functional applications using visual abstractions and interfaces and requiring little or no procedural code to empower users in creating software applications for constrained domains, even if they lack a programming background. This goal aligns with the theme of the 2023 VL/HCC main conference. Other areas within the remit of VL/HCC are also welcome. Why You Should Participate - Present your work to a smaller, more attentive audience - Get detailed, critical, constructive feedback from a diverse panel of experts - Meet other students working on similar problems - Travel funding may be available to help cover your cost of attending VL/HCC (details below). Who Can Participate? The consortium is open to both Master’s and PhD students worldwide. Participation is particularly encouraged from PhD students who are close to proposing a thesis, as well as from members of groups identified by NSF as underrepresented in the sciences and engineering. If multiple applicants from a particular university apply for the consortium this year, then no more than two per university will be selected to participate. To be eligible, each applicant may have participated no more than once in the VL/HCC graduate consortia of past years.
