Call For Papers - CFP

Dundee, UK, 6th-10th September 2010

http://www.hci2010.org

For over 25 years the BCS HCI conference has brought together researchers,

developers and industrialists from around the world to discuss the wide

range of topics and ideas encompassed within Human Computer Interaction. As

a result, networks have been created, partnerships formed, new research has

been generated, and good work has been disseminated. Next year the

conference takes place in Dundee, Scotland, from 6th to 10th September, and,

in addition to the usual wide range of topics, has the special theme “Play

is a Serious Business”. The theme reflects the development of the University

of Abertay as a Centre of Excellence in Computer Games Education, and the

cluster of industrial companies involved in all aspects of the Computer

Games industry in Dundee, and there will be opportunities for delegates to

interact with games designers and developers, and their products, at the

conference.

This call seeks submissions from academics, researchers, students,

industrial and commercial practitioners in the following forms:

* Full research papers ? maximum of 8 pages, on recent, unpublished research

on any HCI research topic.

* Industrial practice papers ? the conference will have two industrial

practice threads running alongside the HCI research threads on at last one

day, these threads being “Mobile HCI” and “Computer Games”, and

practitioners are invited to submit papers, up to a maximum of 8 pages, on

any aspect of research, development or industrial practice related to these

two topics.

* Encounter papers ? these are short, maximum 4 pages, papers and

presentation outlines that will be presented to delegates in an interactive

format involving a direct promenade-style interaction with the authors (more

detail will be provided on the conference website). These papers can reflect

any of the topics identified in the call, and should be identified as

fitting one of four themes for these papers:

- Student work (please note, a separate call for papers for the PhD Forum

will follow)

- Research ideas

- Research in progress

- Commercial and industrial applications

Each of these themes will appear in separate encounter paper sessions at the

conference, so please ensure when making your submission that you clearly

indicate which theme your paper represents.

All papers should be formatted to the ACM standard, see

http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates , and will appear

on-line in the BCS EWiCS series and the ACM Digital Library. Submissions

should be made through the EasyChair system, which will open for submissions

early next year and will be linked from the conference website with detailed

instructions.
