apologies for cross-postings
The submission deadline for BCS HCI 2011 Workshop: Supporting
Collaboration Through Multimodal and Cross-modal Interfaces has been
extended to the 8th of May 2011
http://ccmi.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/hciworkshop
Summary:
With growing possibilities of using various modalities in human-computer
interaction comes new opportunities for supporting richer, more
effective and engaging collaborations. The use of multiple modalities to
support collaboration also presents new challenges for the design,
implementation and evaluation of collaborative systems. This workshop
aims to bring together interested experts to examine and explore the
issues associated with these areas of research. We invite two forms of
submissions to the workshop:
1. Position papers (maximum 2 pages) detailing participants work in
these areas, their perspectives on the challenges, and approaches to
overcoming them.
2. Posters and Demos (maximum 1 page) describing participants multimodal
and cross-modal systems, techniques, user studies, etc.
Important dates:
*8th May 2011 - Submission deadline
extended*
20th May 2011 - Notification of acceptance
2nd June 2011 - Deadline for final copy of accepted contributions
5th July 2011 - Workshop date
Submissions and all enquiries should be addressed to: oussama [at] eecs
[dot] qmul [dot] ac [dot] uk
Workshop goals:
The aim of this workshop is to stimulate exchange and discussion over
the use of multimodal and cross-modal techniques to support
collaborative interaction. We wish to gather researchers and
practitioners interested in the design and implementation of multimodal
and cross-modal collaborative systems in order to:
• Promote networking between researchers and practitioners interested in
the subject.
• Identify and survey current practices and approaches to using
multimodal and cross-modal techniques to support collaboration.
• Identify issues associated with the design, implementation and
evaluation of multimodal and cross-modal collaborative systems.
• Share examples of multimodal and cross-modal systems.
• Explore the potential of establishing a community of practice,
including the identification of funding routes that contribute towards
increasing networking and collaboration opportunities between the community.
A non-exhaustive list of general topics for contributions to the
workshop include:
• Design approaches and principles for multimodal and cross-modal
collaborative systems
• Applications for multimodal and cross-modal collaborative interaction
• Novel multimodal devices and technologies
• Perceptual issues in multimodal and cross-modal interaction design
• Frameworks for evaluating multimodal and cross-modal collaborative systems
Publication of workshop proceedings:
Workshop position papers will be published in a third volume of the BCS
HCI'11 Proceedings. This volume will contain the collected position
papers / slides from the workshop and will be distributed to all
conference and workshop participants.
Journal special issue
A further desired outcome of the workshop would be an invitation to
participants to submit longer versions of their position papers for a
special issue of a Journal on the topic of multimodal and cross-modal
collaboration.
