Call for Participation for
the 9th IEEE International Symposium on Wearable Computers
October 18 - 21, 2005 in Osaka, Japan
http://www.iswc.net
Advance regisration ends at 11:59 PM (JST) on September 22.
ISWC 2005, the ninth annual IEEE International Symposium on Wearable
Computers, will bring together researchers, product vendors, fashion
designers, textile manufacturers, users, and all other interested
parties to share information and advances in wearable computing.
ISWC 2005 offers several sessions of technical presentations, poster
sessions and demonstrations, a fashion show featuring technical
design, a gadget show, and an impressive student corner.
Topics:
- Applications of wearable systems in consumer, industrial, medical,
educational, and military domains.
- Use of wearable computers as components of larger systems, such as
augmented reality systems, training systems or systems designed to
support collaborative work.
- Hardware, including wearable system design, input devices, wearable
displays, batteries, techniques for power management and heat
dissipation, industrial design, and manufacturing issues.
- Software architectures, including ones that allow wearable computers
to exploit surrounding infrastructure.
- Human interfaces, including hands-free approaches, speech-based
interaction, sensory augmentation, human-centered robotics, user
modeling, user evaluation, health issues and interfaces for
combining wearable and ubiquitous computing.
- Networks, including wireless networks, on-body networks, and support
for interaction with other wearables, ubiquitous-computing systems or
the Internet.
- Formal evaluation of wearable computer technologies for example
performance of wearable computer technologies or comparisons of
existing technologies.
- Wearable sensors or networks of sensors for context-awareness or
sensing cognitive state.
- Wearable communities and wearable technology for social-network
computation, visualization and augmentation.
- Operating systems, including such issues as scheduling, security,
and power management.
- Social implications and privacy issues.
- Wearable computing for people with disabilities.
- Fashion design, smart clothes, and electronic textiles.
