Springer Hot Topics series
Affect and Emotion in HCI
===============================
Deadline: 25 June 2007
http://emotion-in-hci.net/emotionbook2007/
You are cordially invited to submit articles for an upcoming book on
affect and emotion in HCI, which Springer will publish in the LNCS
Hot Topics series.
Motivation
----------
It's now ten years since the first publication of Rosalind Picard's
book on Affective Computing. Since then, research in affect and
emotion in HCI has evolved from an eccentric hobby of some visionary
scientists to an accepted discipline within HCI research.
The field has developed a body of work that requires some
aggregation and reflection, and is poised to make some potentially
dramatic advances. The aim of this book is to provide a summary of
the field and then present the latest research results and
technology developments, and of the visions, hopes, and concerns
related to this novel technology.
Scope of the book
-----------------
To give a balanced report with as wide a spectrum as possible, we
solicit contributions from the following fields:
1) Theoretical foundations
Models and representations of emotions, from an HCI perspective;
Ethical and legal issues.
2) Emotion and affect as input
Sensor systems, multimodal sensor networks, and sensor fusion;
Data analysis.
3) Emotion and affect as output
Desktop applications and agents;
Web-based services and applications;
Presence and smart environments;
Mobile applications;
Robots.
4) User experience studies and usability.
5) Community
Reports on Networks of Excellence,
National and international research programmes;
Standardisation efforts.
The listed topics are non-exclusive, please feel free to send in
contributions not listed here, or contact the editors for input on
your suggestions.
Please note that this book will focus on emotion/affect aspects in
HCI only, so contributions on general aspects of emotion theory,
sensor systems or user interface design are discouraged.

August 07 2007 notification of acceptance
Sept 09 2007 camera-ready papers due
