The deadline for submissions to UIST is approaching rapidly!  UIST is
the premier place to publish HCI systems papers.  Of particular
interest are papers on collaboration, haptics, mobile systems,
multimedia, embedded systems, entertainment, VR, and new Web
technologies,

The due date for both full papers and tech notes is:

        5/9/2000    Common date for UIST papers

Tech notes this year (description below) are being reviewed as part
of the normal paper review process.

You can find our Web pages at http://www.acm.org/uist/.  If you have
any additional questions, feel free to send one of us email or to
email Scott Hudson, the program chair.

And sorry if you've gotten more than one reminder.....

UIST 2000
CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

The 13th Annual ACM Symposium
on User Interface Software and Technology
Sponsored by ACM SIGGRAPH and SIGCHI
and in cooperation with ACM SIGSOFT

November 5-8, 2000
U.S. Grant Hotel
San Diego, CA


The Conference
--------------

UIST is the premier forum for innovations in developing human-computer
interfaces. The symposium brings together researchers and
practitioners from a diverse set of areas including user interfaces,
CSCW, VR, multimedia and the web. Participants are typically
interested in techniques, tools, and technology for constructing
high-quality, innovative user interfaces. The intimate size, single
track, and comfortable surroundings make this symposium an ideal
opportunity to exchange research results and implementation
experiences. Papers, TechNotes, Panels, and Demos are sought on a wide
range of user-interface topics.

Common Deadline: Tuesday, May 9 2000

Approximate Acceptance Notification:
Friday, July 14 2000

No fax or email submissions accepted


Papers
------

Full-length papers (10 pages or 5000 words) are the main medium for
conveying new research results at the UIST symposium. Submissions are
sought that describe original, unpublished work on user-interface
devices, techniques, or metaphors. Appropriate topics include but are
not limited to:

Novel, enabling technologies such as virtual worlds, perceptual user
interfaces, tactile user interfaces, multimedia interfaces, CSCW
interfaces and unconventional input devices.

Innovative interfaces for difficult or challenging applications, such
as large, complex information sets.

Innovative software architectures and development environments that
support the development and use of the above technologies and
interfaces.

Rigorous reviewing is a UIST hallmark: each paper will be reviewed by
at least two members of the program committee, and three external
reviewers. Authors of accepted papers will also be invited to
participate in the demo session.

Paper submissions should be at most 5000 words or 10 ACM conference
pages in length, and any accompanying videotape should be at most 8
minutes long. The title page should include an abstract (fewer than
200 words) and keywords. The submission should consist of 6 copies of
a paper, 6 copies of an NTSC VHS videotape (if there is one), and a
cover letter indicating the primary author's name, affiliation,
address, phone number and e-mail address. Please see General
Information for further details on submissions.

Paper submissions must be received by Scott Hudson, the Program Chair,
no later than Friday, May 9 2000.

Tech Notes
----------

Technique Notes ("TechNotes") offer an opportunity to disseminate
important new interaction and visualization techniques that can be
described in two pages. Although shorter in length, UIST TechNotes are
held to the same quality standards as full length papers. Accepted
TechNotes will be published in the proceedings and presented at the
conference.

Typically, a TechNote is a succinct description, possibly including
screen dumps and accompanying video, of a novel user interface
technique with suffucient detail to assist an expert reader in
replicating the technique. TechNotes should not include exhaustive
implementation details or summaries of user studies. Although similar
to full papers, TechNotes are specifically geared to describing new
techniques employed in user interfaces. For those familiar with the
ACM Transactions on Graphics, a TechNote can be thought of as a
conference version of an "Interaction Technique Notebook" article.

A TechNote submission should be no more than 2 ACM conference pages in
length, and any accompanying videotape should be at most 5 minutes
long. The title page should contain an abstract and keywords, and the
submission should include 6 copies of the TechNote, and optionally 6
copies of a supporting video. A cover letter, to be included as well,
should indicate the primary author's name, affiliation, address, phone
number, and e-mail address. Please see General Information for further
details on submissions.

TechNote submissions must be received by Scott Hudson, the Program
Chair, no later than Friday, May 9 2000.
