inspiring visions of future systems that are grounded in today's technical
reality, demonstrate the practical application of research results and the
functionality of ubiquitous computing systems. We also welcome
contributions that visualize the outcome of research and development
projects that are not directly or exclusively linked to a specific system.
We encourage the submission of videos either as new material or as
supplemental to paper submissions (e.g., in order to illustrate particular
aspects of a system). In order to be eligible, videos should not have been
previously presented in any other formal video program.
At the conference, the video program will be interleaved into the regular
paper program. Video authors will have a chance to answer questions from
the audience after their video is presented.

, Word<http://www.sigchi.org/publications/chipubform/sigchi-extended-abstracts-word-template/view>):
For details about template and submission see the “Submission” section
above.
- A self-explanatory video: The video should not require the viewer to
read the abstract.

same video to both Ubicomp and ISWC is not allowed.*
Videos will be judged primarily on the quality of their content, the
clarity of their presentation, quality of production, their interest and
relevance to UbiComp/ISWC. If the video is accepted, a high-quality format,
suitable for DVD production, will be required for the final version. The
