PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS

The 11th International Working Conference on Advanced Visual Interfaces

(AVI2012) will be held in the island

of Capri (Naples), Italy, May 22-26, 2012. Started in 1992 in Roma, and

held every two years in different Italian

towns, the Conference traditionally brings together experts in different

areas of computer science who have a

common interest in the conception, design and implementation of visual

and, more generally, perceptual interfaces.

Through the years, the Conference has witnessed the growing interest

within the community for mobile devices such

as smartphones, palmtops and PDAs, in the framework of both traditional

and emerging environments, such as

ubiquitous and pervasive computer applications. Both formal methods and

concrete applications well fit into

the framework of the conference, whose program also includes invited

talks, given by leaders in the field.

Submissions are solicited under, but not limited to, the following

specific topics:

TOPICS

Accessibility and Usability

Adaptive Interfaces

Animated Interfaces

Cognitive blending

Cognitive Models of the User

Context Aware Interaction

Controlled Studies and Usability Testing

End-User Development

HCI and Web 2.0

Information Visualization

Interactive and Collaborative Interfaces

Interface Evaluation

Interfaces for Art, Cultural Heritage and Tourism

Interface Metaphors

Interfaces for Public Participation

Map-based Interaction

Mobile Interaction Design

Multimodal Interfaces

Participatory Design

Perceptual Interfaces

Virtual and Augmented Reality

Visual Analytics Interfaces

Visual Data Mining

Visual Databases

Visual Interface Design

Web-Based Social Interaction

SUBMISSIONS

We strongly encourage submissions that address research and development on

the above and other related topics,

or that propose new approaches suitable for fulfilling the demands

characterizing advanced interfaces of the next

generation.

Four kinds of contribution are solicited:

Research papers, describing original and unpublished work about the above

or closely related topics. Papers should

not exceed 8 pages in the ACM SIG Proceedings format

(http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html).

Short papers, describing promising work in progress. Short papers should

not exceed 4 pages in the ACM SIG

Proceedings format.

Interactive posters including late-breaking and preliminary results,

smaller results not suitable for a full or

short paper, innovative ideas not yet validated through user studies,

early PhD student research, and other research

best presented in an interactive forum. Submissions should include an

extended abstract no longer than 4 pages,

including all figures and references.

System papers (DEMO), including demonstrations of prototypes, up to 2

pages in the ACM conference format. System papers

will be accompanied by a demonstration of the software prototype, and

should include a description of the hw/sw

requirements on a separate sheet.

Papers will be submitted electronically. Detailed information on

electronic submission will be provided at the AVI 2012

web site: http://www.avi2012.it

At least one author is required to attend the conference in order to

present the paper. Papers and Demo descriptions

presented at the Conference will be included in the Proceedings published

by ACM Press (approval pending).
