The Work-in-Progress Posters offer a great venue to show exciting new
work that is in an early stage and can benefit from discussion with
colleagues. We encourage practitioners and researchers to submit
their work-in-progress to present their valuable ideas, get feedback
on their work and stimulate discussions and collaborations among
colleagues. Accepted submissions will be available to the CHI
community as a 6 page paper in the electronic Conference Extended
Abstracts Proceedings and as a poster presentation.
This submission category aims to attract attention from a broad range
of disciplines covering a spectrum of topics and methodologies. We
encourage submissions from all of CHI's communities: design,
education, engineering, management, research, and usability. Topics
related to the conference main theme are especially encouraged:
art.science.balance
The Work-in-Progress venue is not an archival publication that
constrains future submissions. Your Work-in-Progress Poster is not
considered to be a prior publication of the work and may be reused
for later publications if appropriate.
Work-in-Progress submissions consist of a camera ready 6 page
unanonymized paper in the Extended Abstracts format. The final
submitted PDF must be smaller than 4Mb in size. This document must be
submitted as via the PCS submission system by 8 Jan 2008 (5:00PM PST).
The six-page submission should include:
* a concise description of the idea
* if appropriate, the completed analytical exploration or
experimental assessment of your work
* potential implications of the work to the field of HCI
* recommendations for further investigation and incorporation into
practice
Each submission will be reviewed based on the originality of the
work, the quality of the written presentation and its contribution to
the field of HCI. The submission's suitability for presentation as a
poster will be considered as well.
Work-in-Progress Posters will be presented at the Conference
Reception. We expect that most conference attendees will visit the
posters and interact with presenters during this time. Accepted Work-
in-Progress submissions will be distributed in the electronic CHI
Extended Abstracts. They will be placed in the ACM Digital Library,
where they will remain accessible to thousands of researchers and
practitioners worldwide.
We Need Reviewers Too!
We also invite you to register as a reviewer for the Work-In-Progress
submissions. Your feedback as an expert is of great value to ensure
the quality of the work presented at this track. It provides you with
an exciting opportunity to learn about new, state-of-the-art and
thought-provoking work that is still in its formative stages and
allows you to help your fellow HCI colleagues to push this work
forward. Please visit http://www.chi2008.org/reviewing.html to learn
more about reviewing.
We strongly encourage all of you to participate. More information is
available at the conference website: http://www.chi2008.org/
works_in_progress.html. Do not hesitate to contact us (chi2008-

Florence.
