=================== DESCRIPTION ========================

After the big success of TEI'07 we are now organizing TEI'08, the 
second international conference dedicated to research in tangible 
and embedded interaction. Work addressing HCI issues, design, use 
context, tools and technologies, as well as interactive art works 
are all welcome, including especially interdisciplinary 
submissions across these themes. We anticipate that papers will 
be published through the ACM Digital Library (confirmation will 
follow soon).

With technological advances, computing has progressively moved 
beyond the desktop into new physical and social contexts. As 
physical artifacts gain new computational behaviors, they become 
reprogrammable, customizable, repurposable, and interoperable in 
rich ecologies and diverse contexts. They also become more 
complex, and require intense design effort in order to be 
functional, usable, and enjoyable. Designing such systems 
requires interdisciplinary thinking. Their creation must not only 
encompass software, electronics, and mechanics, but also the 
system's physical form and behavior, its social and physical 
milieu, and beyond.

Research on tangible and embedded interaction has gained 
substantial visibility and activity over the past decade and it 
has worn many names, including tangible interfaces, graspable 
interfaces, physical computing, tangible interaction, IT product 
design, appliance design, interactive spaces, etc.; and been 
associated with larger research areas, including mixed, virtual, 
and augmented reality, and ubiquitous and pervasive computing.

The conference brings together this new field, providing a 
meeting ground for the diverse communities of research and 
practice involved with tangibles -- from computing, hardware, and 
sensor technology, to HCI, interaction design, and CSCW, to 
product and industrial design and interactive arts. We invite 
submissions from all of these perspectives, be they theoretical, 
conceptual, technical, applied, or artistic. The conference is 
designed to provide appropriate presentation forms for different 
types of contributions including talks, interactive exhibits, 
demos or performances, and posters. All submission types will be 
included in the proceedings as papers and will be integrated 
within the single-track conference. Interdisciplinary submissions 
are particularly welcome.

=================== TOPICS FOR SUBMISSION ==============

Authors are invited to submit high-quality papers about original 
research that contributes to advancing the field. Appropriate 
topics include but are not limited to:

* Case studies and evaluations of working deployments
* Analysis of key challenges, proposals of research agenda
* Relation of tangible and embedded interaction to other paradigms
* Programming paradigms and tools, toolkits, software architectures
* Novel interactive uses of sensors+actuators, 
electronics+mechatronics
* Design guidelines, methods, and processes
* Novel appl. areas, innovative solutions/systems and industrial apps
* Theoretical foundations, frameworks, and concepts
* Philosophical, ethical & social implications
* Interfaces specific in form and context to particular cultures
* Usability and enjoyment
* Advantages of these kinds of systems, weaknesses, affordances
* Learning from the role of physicality in everyday environments
* Embodied interaction, movement, and choreography of interaction
* Role of physicality for human perception, cognition and experience
* Teaching experiences, lessons learned, and best practices
* Standardization, production, and business applications

=================== SUBMISSION DETAILS =================

Papers must present original material and will be reviewed 
rigorously by at least 3 reviewers in a double-blind process. So 
please anonymize your submission. Papers in all areas will be 
reviewed and assessed based on the contribution they make to the 
field. Submission will be electronic and in ACM SIGCHI format.

Papers can vary in length, using the ACM SIGCHI format and have 
either 8, 4, or 2 pages. All papers will undergo the same review 
process and be published in the same way. Length must match the 
contribution, and the general criteria hold for all papers. 
Papers can be presented as talk, poster, exhibit or demo, 
regardless of length. E.g. an exhibit of a novel design can be 
published as an 8 page paper, while a talk on a novel sensor 
technique might as a paper fit 2 pages - or vice versa. Authors 
can indicate what kind of presentation they prefer or suits their 
contribution.

In case of acceptance, at least one author must register before 
the early registration deadline for the conference in order for 
the final paper version to be published in the conference 
proceedings.
