*2nd International Workshop on User-Adaptive Visualization Interfaces -
WUAVI 2014 <http://reinecke.people.si.umich.edu/wuavi/>
http://reinecke.people.si.umich.edu/wuavi/
held in conjunction with UMAP 2014 <http://www.um.org/umap2014/> in
Aalborg, Denmark 7-11 July 2014
--------
Overview
--------*
*This workshop follows up on two previous workshops: WUAV 2013
<http://www.cs.ubc.ca/%7Esteichen/WUAV2013/index.html>, a workshop held
during UMAP 2013, that focused on user-adaptive visualizations, and Many
People, Many Eyes
<http://people.seas.harvard.edu/%7Ereinecke/manyeyes/>, a workshop held
at CHI 2013 on the influences of visual perception on user interface
design. This year's workshop aims to extend the scope of these two
workshops by looking at how to provide adaptive support that can
increase user performance and satisfaction with other interfaces that
have strong visual components, such as infographics and interactive
websites. We will call these interfaces visualization interfaces,
whereby the term visualization encompass graphical elements such as
illustrations, colorful metaphors, charts and infographics. The goal of
this workshop is to continue to build the foundations for a new research
community specifically focused on this novel and promising topic of
user-adaptive visualization interfaces. It aims to bring together
researchers from the areas of visualization, UMAP, HCI, accessibility
and cognitive/perceptual psychology, in order to share and discuss
multidisciplinary knowledge relating to research on user-adaptive
visualization interfaces. The core research questions follow those
targeted at WUAV 2013, but are expanded to cover a greater diversity of
visualization interfaces: 1) what individual user differences should be
considered for adaptation that can support effective and satisfying
visual processing 2) when is this adaptive support appropriate and/or
necessary 3) how to adapt, i.e., what techniques to use and at what
level of intrusiveness, and 4) how to evaluate adaptations. Given the
expanded scope of this year's workshop, an overarching new objective
will be to begin exploring potential answers to the above questions with
an eye to generalizing across different types of visualization
interfaces. For full details on the workshop focus, please visit the

Submissions
-----------*
*We encourage submissions from diverse backgrounds, including
visualization (encompassing InfoVis, SciVis and Visual Analytics), UMAP,
HCI, accessibility, and cognitive/perceptual psychology. Other
specialists who are interested in applications based on novel
visualization interfaces, e.g., web or game designers, industrial
solutions or applications for education and entertainment, are very
welcome to contribute. We invite papers describing more developed ideas
and methods, submitted via *long papers (max. 6 pages)*, as well as
novel work-in-progress, submitted via *short papers (max. 3 pages)*. For
non-academic submissions, we invite *short experience reports (max. 3
pages)* reflecting on the process of developing or applying
visualization interfaces. All submission must adhere to the Springer
LNCS format
<http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0> and must
be made through the WUAVI 2014 EasyConference website
<https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wuavi2014>. Papers will be
selected based on originality, quality, and ability to promote
discussion. Accepted papers will be included in the workshop proceedings
and published on the CEUR proceedings site
<http://ceur-ws.org/index.html>. At least one author of each accepted
paper must attend the workshop. For full details on the submission
format and procedure, please visit the workshop website at
