!!!Final Call for papers!!! EXTENDED DEADLINE
Workshop on
PERVASIVE AWARENESS SYSTEMS: FROM THEORIES TO END-USER DEVELOPMENT
(http://www.idi.ntnu.no/~divitini/nordichi2008/)
Lund, 19 October 2008
in conjunction with NORDICHI2008
!!!!SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO SEPTEMBER 12, 2008!!!
We would like to invite you to submit a 3-4 page position paper to the NORDICHI workshop on Pervasive Awareness Systems.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers working both in industry and academia on pervasive awareness systems to discuss the theoretical and technological challenges related to the design, adaptation, and deployment of pervasive awareness systems.
The workshop aims to address issues related to:
* The theoretical foundations of pervasive awareness systems to understand better what user-needs are served, how different theories can support us in understanding and designing pervasive awareness systems, what risks are related to the use of these technologies
* The middleware and platforms for pervasive awareness applications and social media together with related prototyping environments/toolkits
* The interaction mechanisms and tools for enabling end-user communities to create their own awareness systems. In doing so, awareness systems can be made to fit the idiosyncratic needs of different communities, relevant to their own particular life-styles, culture and communication needs.
The workshop is organized by the EU ASTRA project.
IMPORTANT DATES:
Deadline for workshop submissions: 12 September 2008.
Notification of acceptance by: 18 September 2008
Print ready by: 5 October 2008
