CALL FOR PAPERS
http://zimmer.csufresno.edu/~shliu/SAC09-HCI
This is the first year that ACM SAC includes a Human Computer Interaction track. We encourage original, unpublished and novel papers in this track.
Human
Computer Interaction (HCI) is the interdisciplinary study of the design,
development, and evaluation of user interfaces. On the user side,
communications, graphic design, linguistics, anthropology, and cognitive
psychology bring techniques relevant to maximizing user productivity,
facilitating learning, and minimizing error. On the computing side, techniques
from computer graphics, programming languages, operating systems, and software
engineering (SE) make possible the realization of these carefully designed
interfaces. Although interface specialists and software engineers routinely
work in interdisciplinary teams, this track emphasizes software engineering
perspectives in HCI. That is, we are interested in methodologies, techniques,
and tools of software design and development that assist developers and users
in absorbing and managing information on a variety of computational
devices. This is particularly
challenging in domains such as safety critical systems, or on hardware
constrained mobile devices.
We
encourage submissions on throughout the software life-cycle to support HCI
activities. More specifically:
Techniques for
- Domain-Specific
or End-User Programming
- Formal
Models of Interfaces Requirements and Design
- Model-Driven
Approaches (Visual Languages and Environments)
- Quality
Engineering (Software/User Testing and Metrics)
- Requirements
Engineering
- Software
Architecture and Design
- Software
Reuse and Evolution for HCI
- Software
Tools and Environments to Support HCI Software Development
- Web
Technologies
in domains such as
- Education
and Training
- Mobile
Computing
- Interfaces
for Users with Disabilities
- Safety
Critical Systems
- Ubiquitous
Computing
- Virtual
and Augmented Reality
Paper Submission
Guidelines:
Contributions should
be original and not published elsewhere. Reports of innovative computing
applications in the arts, sciences, engineering, and business areas; reports of
successful technology transfer to new problem domains; and reports of
industrial experience and descriptions of new innovative systems are
encouraged. Submissions should be made through the conference management
system, eCMS system at http://sac.cs.iupui.edu/SAC2009/.
The manuscript file format should be PDF with body not exceed 4,000 words
(approximately 15 pages, double-spaced, 12-point size). The final camera-ready
copies should follow ACM/SAC format (Templates available at http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2009/downloads09.htm). The total number of final pages without
any extra page charge will be five. Authors are allowed up to 8 pages following
the templates.
A double blind review process will be followed for all submissions. Hence, the author(s) name(s) and address(s) must NOT appear in the body of the submitted paper, and self-references should be in the third person. Only the title should be shown at the first page, without the author's information
