Call for Participation: CHI 2013 Workshop
--- POWERWALL - International Workshop on Interactive, Ultra-High-Resolution Displays ---
Date: 27th April 2013
Venue: Palais de Congrès de Paris, France
Submission Deadline: 11th January 2013
Author Notification: 8th February 2013
Workshop website: http://www.powerwall.mdx.ac.uk (will be available soon)
--- Workshop Description ---
Ultra-High-resolution, wall-size (Powerwall) displays are constructed using an array of TFT panels or projectors. The vast screen real estate presents new ways in which we can view and interact with data. This workshop is not just for academics working with large screen displays, but also for practitioners who wish to discuss large scale data problems that can benefit from this new and growing research area.
Due to CHI being hosted in Paris, we are able to host the workshop in front of the Powerwall display at the National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control (http://www.inria.fr/en/centre/saclay/research/wild-platform/overview). Throughout the day, the display will provide participants with a physical medium for discussing research and presenting work. An outcome of the workshop will be a wiki-site acting as a shared resource that guides others on how to design, build and install Powerwall displays.
Those wanting to attend are required to submit a position paper (maximum of 6 pages in the CHI Extended Abstracts format, http://chi2013.acm.org/authors/format/). Topics include, but are not limit to:
- Interaction
- Visualisation
- Collaboration
- Construction
The submission process will be finalised soon. Please send any inquiries to [log in to unmask]
At least one author from each accepted paper must attend the workshop. Attendees must register for the workshop and for at least one day of the conference.
