CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
======================
UIST 2007 - The 20th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software
and Technology (http://www.acm.org/uist/uist2007/)
October 7-10, 2007
Newport, Rhode Island, USA
EXTENDED DEADLINES: Calls for Posters, Demos, and Doctoral Symposium
are opened until July 2, 2007.
Overview:
=========
This mail contains the calls for
1. Posters,
2. Demos and
3. Doctoral Symposium.
You can review all calls at: http://www.acm.org/uist/uist2007/call/
Important Dates and Deadlines:
==============================
Submission Deadline *EXTENDED*: July 2, 2007
Acceptance Notification: August 3, 2007
1. CALL FOR POSTERS
==================
Posters provide an interactive forum in which authors can present
work to conference attendees during special poster sessions. Posters
provide an opportunity to describe new work or work that is still in
progress, and will be more lightly reviewed than papers or tech notes.
Poster submissions should be in the form of a two-page paper in UIST
format, describing the research problem, contribution, and value to
UIST attendees (PDF format). In addition to the two-page paper,
poster submissions require submitting the poster itself (PDF format).
Authors may include a video (optional). Video files should be at most
three minutes long and 30MB in size. See the video guide and the
general information above for details. Before designing the poster,
we recommend checking out the UIST 2005 Poster Example Gallery.
Accepted poster abstracts will be published together with demos in
both a booklet and a DVD distributed to the conference attendees.
Posters and the optional video may also be published in the DVD, at
the authors' discretion. Poster abstracts and previews should be
submitted electronically to http://www.precisionconference.com/~sigchi.
Posters will be displayed on corkboards during conference break
periods. We expect to be able to accommodate posters of up to 3 feet
by 4 feet (either vertical or horizontal), so we suggest using that
size or smaller for your prototype. (Many authors have found it
easiest to create a slide in PowerPoint and have a copy shop print it
at 400% magnification.) In addition, poster authors are expected to
give a 60-second presentation of their work at the conference (1-
minute madness). Authors will be notified of poster results on or
before August 3.

2. CALL FOR DEMOS
=================
Peer-reviewed demonstrations show early implementations of novel,
interesting, and important interaction concepts or user interface
systems. They can also serve to showcase commercial products not
previously described in the research literature. Demonstrations
should be brief, so that they can be shown repeatedly. We
particularly encourage demos with which attendees can interact.
Accepted demos will be published, together with posters, in a booklet
distributed to UIST attendees. UIST will showcase accepted demos at a
demo reception on Monday evening, October 8. We will also invite
authors of accepted papers and TechNotes to present their work at the
demo reception.
A demo submission consists of an extended abstract that should be no
more than two ACM conference pages in length. Any accompanying video
should be at most three minutes long and 30MB in size. See the video
guide and the general information above for details. Both the demo
abstract and the optional digital video should be submitted
electronically to http://www.precisionconference.com/~sigchi. Authors
who need to submit a physical videotape should contact Andy Wilson
directly. Authors will be notified of demo results on or before
August 3.

3. DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM
===================
The UIST Doctoral Symposium is a forum in which Ph.D. students can
meet and discuss their work with each other and a panel of
experienced UIST researchers in an informal and interactive setting.
We welcome applications from current Ph.D. students studying within
the full range of disciplines and approaches that contribute to the
UIST community. We will give preference to applicants beyond the
proposal stage and well into their dissertation research. Each
applicant should provide a short written paper (no more than four
pages in normal UIST format). This paper should describe ongoing work
and might summarize the student's full dissertation work, or
highlight a particular part in depth.
The Doctoral Symposium committee will select approximately eight
participants who will be expected to give a short presentation of
their work, which will be followed by an extensive discussion. In
addition, each student is encouraged to present a poster describing
their work to the full conference. Participants will be selected
based on their anticipated contribution to the breadth and depth of
the intellectual discussions of the Symposium.
The symposium will start with an informal dinner Saturday evening,
October 6th, continue all day Sunday, October 7, and conclude with
poster presentations at the UIST opening reception Sunday evening.
Doctoral Symposium papers will be published in the UIST conference
companion distributed at the conference. We anticipate that a travel
stipend and free registration to the UIST conference will be provided
to each participant.
Doctoral Symposium papers and poster sketches should be submitted
electronically to http://www.precisionconference.com/~sigchi.Authors
will be notified of DS results on or before August 3.
