INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT USER INTERFACES (IUI 2006) --
First Call for Papers.
Sydney, January 2006
Instructions for formatting long and short papers will be available at
the conference website in July, 2005. See the website at that time for formatting information.
IUI 2006 seeks high-quality, original submissions of reports on research
about intelligent user interfaces. It encourages participation from
around the globe by both academic and industrial researchers and developers.
All submissions will be reviewed by a distinguished
international program committee.
Please note: We have placed the submission deadline as close as possible to the publication date.
It will therefore be impossible for us to grant
even the smallest extension. For clarity and fairness, the server will
stop accepting submissions just after 11:59 pm Pacific Daylight Time
(i.e., San Diego time). Please plan accordingly when preparing your
submissions!
TRACKS SUBMISSION DEADLINES
Long Papers Submissions due Monday, 19 September 2005, 11:59 pm PDT
Short Papers Submissions due Monday, 19 September 2005, 11:59 pm PDT
Tutorials Proposals due Monday, 15 August 2005
Workshops Proposals due Monday, 15 August 2005
All paper submissions and reviews will be handled via www.conferencereview.com
Why submit to IUI 2006?
The series of annual conferences on Intelligent User Interfaces is the
principal international forum for the presentation and discussion of
outstanding research and applications involving intelligent user interfaces.
Its proceedings, which are available both as hard copy and via the ACM Digital
Library, are widely read and cited.
The central track of the technical program comprises plenary presentations of
full-length papers, which are selected by the program committee after in-depth
analysis and discussion. A complementary set of short paper presentations and
demos stimulates discussion on work in progress.
The conference experience also includes a variety of other activities:
workshops, tutorials, invited talks by leading figures, and an occasional panel. Just as important are the lively informal discussions that are
encouraged by the fact that most of the conference events are attended by all
of the participants.
Topics
Topics of interest for IUI include all aspects of intelligent user interfaces.
Successful papers will include aspects of both intelligence and interface. The following are sample topics:
Interpretation of user input
Processing of multimodal input
Natural language and speech processing
Affective interfaces
Generation of system output
Intelligent visualization tools
Intelligent generation of multimedia presentations
Ubiquitous computing
Intelligent interfaces for ubiquitous computing
Smart environments
Help
Intelligent assistants for complex tasks
Support for collaboration in multiuser environments
Intelligent information and knowledge management
Categories of intelligence
User-adaptivity in interactive systems
Personalization and recommender systems
Modeling and prediction of user behavior
Planning and plan recognition
IUI Design
Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design and generation
Proactive and agent-based paradigms for user interaction
Example- and demonstration-based interfaces
User studies
User studies concerning intelligent interfaces
Evaluations of implemented intelligent user interfaces
The programs of previous IUI conferences are available via the conference web
site (see www.iuiconf.org/pastiui.html).
IUI 2006 encourages submissions from those who have done relevant work
but who have not previously submitted to an IUI conference. In case of
doubt about the relevance of your work, do not hesitate to ask the program chairs (papers at iuiconf.org) or the short paper chairs
(short-papers at iuiconf.org) for advice.
Submission of Long and Short Papers
There are two categories of paper submission:
LONG PAPER submissions should report on substantial contributions of
lasting value. Each accepted long paper will be presented in a plenary session
of the main conference program. An accompanying demonstration can be presented
in a poster/demo session. The maximum length is 8 pages in the two-column ACM
conference format.
SHORT PAPER submissions typically discuss exciting new work that
is not yet mature enough for a long paper. Each accepted short paper will be
presented in a poster/demo session. The presentation may include a system demonstration. The maximum length is 3 pages.
Each submission will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. Each long paper submission will also be read by a "meta-reviewer":
a senior program committee member who will produce a coherent summary of the
reviews.
An Outstanding Paper Award will be presented to the one or two strongest
papers submitted to the long paper track. These papers will be selected
by the program committee on the basis of the significance of the contribution,
the relevance to the IUI conference, and the quality of the writing.
The Outstanding Paper(s) will be publicized before and after the conference,
and the authors will receive a modest monetary award and a framed award
certificate in recognition of their contribution to the field.
Accepted papers from both categories will be included in the conference
proceedings, to be published in hard copy by the ACM Press and electronically
in the ACM Digital Library (http://portal.acm.org/dl.cfm).
Instructions for formatting long and short papers will be available at the conference website in July, 2005. See the website at that time for formatting information.
Multiple submissions policy: A paper should not be submitted to IUI 2006 if the same paper - or a substantially similar version - has already been
accepted for publication by another conference, if it is currently under
review for another conference, or if it will be submitted to another
conference by 1 November 2005.
To submit a long or short paper, please visit http://www.conferencereview.com
and follow the instructions given there. (Note to Linux users: Although the Conference Reviewing System has not been officially validated for use under
Linux, according to the experience of the program cochairs it is unlikely that you will actually encounter difficulties.)
Time line for long and short papers:
Monday, 19 September 2005, 11:59 pm PDT: Submission of manuscripts for review
Monday, 7 November 2005: Notification about acceptance or rejection
Monday, 21 November 2005: Submission of camera-ready copy for accepted papers
Workshops
The purpose of the workshops is to provide an informal forum for practitioners
and researchers to discuss their current work and issues of common interest.
The formats of the workshops will be determined by their organizers, who are
encouraged to foster discussion and exchange of ideas by including mechanisms
other than traditional paper presentations, differentiating their workshops clearly from typical conference sessions.
For further information about the submission of workshop proposals, see the separate workshop page.
Time line for workshop proposal submissions:
Monday, 15 August 2005 Submission of proposal
Monday, 29 August 2005 Notification about acceptance or rejection
Monday, 5 September 2005 Submission of call for participation
Tutorials
The purpose of a tutorial is either to offer an introduction to a fairly
broad topic for newcomers to intelligent user interfaces or to enable
experienced participants to deepen their knowledge of a more specific topic.
For further information about the submission of tutorial proposals,
see the separate tutorial page.
Time line for tutorial proposal submissions:
Monday, 15 August 2005 Submission of proposal
Monday, 29 August 2005 Notification about acceptance or rejection
Monday, 5 September 2004 Submission of tutorial description
