SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS
***Industrial Track: Putting HCI into Best Practice*** Submissions for the Industrial Track:
We recommend the LNCS stylesheets (Word or LaTex) for submissions. There are no specific length requirements, but the submissions should be adequate to describe the intended presentation.
The spirit of the industrial talks ("management board talks") should be non-scientific and business oriented - interested companies should describe case studies, best practices, challenges in their work relating to HCI/usability. The goal is the exchange of knowledge within and between both, industrial and scientific communities.
Talk format: 20 minutes + 10 minutes discussion.
Submission and communication language: German and English.
Proceedings: Will be printed in-house and distributed in advance.
Subsequent to a presentation, Round Table discussions can be scheduled, focusing on cooperation and match making and typically including the presenter and 5 to 7 interested participants.
Suggestions for possible topics (non-exhaustive):
Multi-platform delivery / device independence - Rich internet applications - E-learning systems and content - Simulations - Serious games - Mobile applications - E-commerce applications and HCI issues - Web 2.0 and e-learning 2.0 - Tool& Methodology Choices, Tradeoffs, Decisions - Business, Cases on HCI (financial issues, financing issues, ROI etc.) - Usability issues (how to do it right) - Remote usability evaluation - Automated usability assessment (experiences/limitations) - Usability in production environments - Clean Room conditions - Human-robot interaction
Looking forward to seeing you in beautiful Carinthia, Gerhard Leitner Martin Hitz Andreas Holzinger http://usab2010.uni-klu.ac.at <http://usab2010.uni-klu.ac.at> [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> >
