To all members of the Mobile HCI community,
As Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Mobile HCI (IJMHCI) it gives me great pleasure to draw to your attention an exciting new submission category for the journal. This new category is specifically targeted at the newest members of the academic/scientific community.that is, recent PhD graduates. A lot of PhD work gets published in public venues in a somewhat disjointed fashion as a series of papers, each covering distinct sub-components of the bigger PhD research picture. The IJMCHI invites (on an ongoing basis) researchers who have recently (within 12 months) graduated with a PhD in a Mobile HCI-related topic to submit a comprehensive overview article of their PhD research. This category of submission to the IJMHCI will provide a unique opportunity to showcase, in a comprehensive and centralized fashion, the newest work of the newest members of the Mobile HCI research community. Submissions to this category will be processed on a rolling basis (i.e., no deadline) and must be accompanied by a letter of reference from the PhD supervisor to confirm that the PhD has been successfully awarded within the previous 12 months. The intention is that future issues of the IJMHCI will regularly contain a PhD overview article that will serve to introduce new members to the community and bring their fresh, new research themes and associated challenges into the collective consciousness of the community at large. To this end, if you are a PhD student nearing completion or having just graduated, please do submit to the IJMHCI under this submission category. Alternatively, if you are the supervisor of eligible PhD students, please encourage your students to submit an overview article to the IJMHCI to showcase their research in a comprehensive fashion to the Mobile HCI community.
The general CFP and submission information is noted below. I hope this CFP also encourages the rest of the community to consider submitting to the IJMHCI - and we look forward to receiving your submissions in the future!
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Joanna Lumsden

MISSION OF IJMHCI:
Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts for possible publication in the International Journal of Mobile Human Computer Interaction. The primary objective of IJMHCI is to provide comprehensive coverage and understanding of the issues associated with the design, evaluation, and use of mobile technologies. The journal will focus on human-computer interaction related innovation and research in the design, evaluation, and use of innovative handheld, mobile, and wearable technologies in order to broaden the overall body of knowledge regarding such issues. It will also consider issues associated with the social and/or organizational impacts of such technologies.
COVERAGE OF IJMHCI:
Journal topics include (but are not limited to) the following:
. Non-speech audio-based interaction techniques for mobile technologies
. Speech-based interaction techniques for mobile technologies
. Graphical interaction techniques for mobile technologies
. Gestural interaction techniques for mobile technologies
. Tactile interaction techniques for mobile technologies
. Multimodal interaction on mobile technologies
. Other emerging interaction techniques for mobile technologies
. Design methods/approaches for mobile user interfaces
. Issues of heterogeneity of mobile device interfaces/interaction
. User interface migration from desktop to mobile technologies
. Mobile commerce application design, evaluation, and use
. Mobile healthcare application design, evaluation, and use
. Mobile learning application design, evaluation, and use
. Mobile advanced training application design, evaluation, and use
. Mobile assistive technologies design, evaluation, and use
. Mobile technology design, evaluation, and use by special (needs) groups - e.g., elderly, children, disabled
. Mobile interactive play design, evaluation, and use
. Context-aware/context-sensitive mobile application design, evaluation, and use
. Wearable technology/application and interaction design, evaluation, and use
. User aspects of mobile privacy, security, and trust
. Technology acceptance as it relates to mobile technologies
. User interface architectures for mobile technologies
. Mobile HCI lab design/set-up
. Lab-based evaluations and evaluation techniques
. Field-based evaluations and evaluation techniques
. Lab v. field evaluations and evaluation techniques
. Ethical implications of mobile evaluations
. Case studies and/or reflections on experience in any of the above - e.g. descriptions of successful mobile user interfaces, evaluation set-ups, etc.
. All other related issues that impact the design, evaluation, and use of mobile technologies.
SUBMITTING TO IJMHCI:
Prospective authors should note that only original and previously unpublished manuscripts will be considered. INTERESTED AUTHORS SHOULD CONSULT THE JOURNAL'S GUIDELINES FOR MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSIONS at http://www.igi-global.com/IJMHCI PRIOR TO SUBMISSION.
