On behalf of the organizing committee of the Third International Workshop on
Perceptual Quality of Systems (PQS), we would like to invite you to attend
this exciting event that will happen in Dresden, September 6-8, 2009
(http://www.ias.et.tu-dresden.de/akustik/PQS2010/).
Third International Workshop on Perceptual Quality of Systems is a direct
successor to the successful workshop series inaugurated in Herne in 2003,
and in Berlin in 2006.
The quality of systems which address human perception is difficult to
describe. An engineering approach to quality includes the consideration of
how a system is perceived by its users, and how the needs and expectations
of the users develop. Thus, quality assessment and prediction have to take
the relevant human perception and judgement factors into account.
The workshop is intended to provide an interdisciplinary exchange of ideas
between both academic and industrial researchers working on different
aspects of perceptual quality of systems. Papers are invited which refer to
methodological aspects of quality and usability assessment and evaluation,
the underlying perception and judgment processes, as well as to particular
technologies, systems or services.
Contributions are welcomed in (but not limited to) the following areas
(please note that in all of these areas both theoretical and empirical
approaches are encouraged):
Methodologies and Methods of Quality Assessment and Evaluation
Metrology: Test Design and Scaling
Quality of Speech and Music
Quality of Multimodal Perception
Perceptual Quality vs. Usability
Semio-Acoustics and -Perception
Quality and Usability of
* Speech Technology Devices
* Telecommunication Systems and Services
* Multi-Modal User Interfaces
* Virtual Reality
Product-Sound Quality
The workshop will take place in the “Bischof Bennohaus”, a villa-like
conference center located in Bautzen, near Dresden, Germany. All
participants will be accommodated in this center. Accomodation and meals are
included in the workshop fees. A shuttle bus service will collect
participants from downtown Dresden and transport them to the workshop venue.
We invite your papers, posters and demonstrations on these topics, and look
forward to seeing you in Dresden in September 2010.
