Submission Venues Papers

We invite original paper submissions that describe novel user interfaces, applications, interactive and intelligent technologies, empirical studies, or design techniques. Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. IUI 2013 especially encourages submissions on innovative and visionary new concepts or directions for interface design. We do not require evaluations with users, but we do expect papers to include an appropriate evaluation for their stated contribution.

Posters

Posters provide an opportunity for sharing valuable ideas, eliciting useful feedback on early-stage work and fostering discussions and collaborations among colleagues. We invite submissions on all topics of the conference. All submissions should convey a scientific result or work in progress that is not yet ready to be published as a full length research paper at a refereed conference.

Demonstrations

The demonstrations track complements the overall program of the conference. Demonstrations show implementations of novel, interesting, and important intelligent user interface concepts or systems. We invite submissions relevant to intelligent user interfaces and which address, but are not limited to, the topics of the conference. All submissions are intended to convey a scientific result or work in progress and should not be advertisements for commercial software packages.

Workshops

Workshops will be held on the first day of the conference. We invite submissions of full-day (6 hours) and half-day (3 hours) workshop proposals on any of the conference topics.

Student Consortium

The IUI 2013 Student Consortium provides an opportunity for Masters and Doctoral students to present and receive feedback about their research work in an interdisciplinary workshop, under the guidance of a panel of mentors, selected from senior people in the field. We invite students who feel they would benefit from this kind of feedback on their dissertation to apply for this unique opportunity to share their work with students in a similar situation as well as senior researchers in the field. The strongest candidates will be those who have a clear topic and research approach, and have made some progress, but who are not so far along with their thesis that they can no longer make changes.

Step 1 (Reading-Listening-Writing-Speaking)

1. Before watching the video piece “Online Virtual Events and Business Conferences ” look through the virtual events definition to answer the question:

What is a virtual event?

A Virtual Event is a gathering of people sharing a common virtual environment on the web, rather than meeting in a physical location. Virtual events are highly interactive, looking and feeling a lot like their physical counterparts. Popular uses of virtual events include virtual tradeshows, virtual job fairs, virtual conferences, virtual sales meetings, and virtual company-wide gatherings. Virtual events are used to deliver presentations, trainings, departmental meetings and sessions led by stakeholders and company executives to product management and human resources.

2. Watch the video piece “Online Virtual Events and Business Conferences – How to Keep Audience Engaged” and answer the question:

What are two reasons of virtual event popularity?

Step 2 (Listening-Writing-Speaking)

1. While watching the second time write down five ways to guarantee improvement in your audience engagement and be ready to comment them.

2. In groups of two-three students check and add each other’s notes (you have five minutes for this activity). After the group discussion, one student from each of the group will be requested to make a short presentation of the summary you‘ve made (not more that three minutes for every presentation; not more that 12 minutes for all the presentations).

3.Write down the summary you have discussed using the key words from the video. (You have time until the end of the class to do the assignment).
