Call for Papers: Development and Usage of Novel Input Technologies

Overview

Workshop on Development and Usage of Novel Input Technologies (full day)
Papers can be submitted until May, 8th (deadline extended)
The Workshop takes place at the GI annual conference INFORMATIK 2011 in Berlin, October, 4th-7th 2011
Date of workshop: October, 6th 2011 (planned)
CfP in german

Topic

There is a massive trend to replace traditional input devices such as mouse and keyboard with different kinds of new input devices. For example smartphones and tablets and even some larger systems like interactive tables or interactive walls are controlled via touch or multi-touch screens. Furthermoer, several innovative approaches been introduced in the area of gaming (i.e. Microsoft Kinect and Nintendo Wii) and are currently transferred to other application areas.

The development and usage of advanced input technologies raises many interesting and interdisciplinary questions. The goal of this workshop is to discuss these questions in an open forum that equally attracts scientists, practitioners.

We encourage software engineers, computer scientists, information systems researchers, as well as industry experts to submit their research and attend the workshop. Contributions that deal with software engineering, methods or frameworks for advanced input devices are welcome as well as contributions that examine the usage of such technologies in enterprises or the impact on productivity and motivation of employees. Also contributions that deal with the usage of advanced input technologies in the consumer segment are a very interesting topic for the workshop.

Suggested topics include (but are not limited to):

Development of multi-touch software and other multi-point systems
Case studies: business application
Best practices: development, technology and implementation in enterprises
Quantitative and qualitative studies on the acceptance of new input technologies
Integration into the communications infrastructure
Business Value analysis of technologies
Privacy and privacy protection
Collaborative systems and advanced input technologies

Important Dates

Submission of papers: May 8th, 2011 (deadline extended)
Notification of authors: May 23rd, 2011
Camera-ready papers: July 1st, 2011
Conference: October 4th-7th 2011

Paper Submission

Submitted papers will be double blind peer-reviewed by the program committee. Maximum size for full papers is 15 pages, for short papers 5 pages.

The accepted workshop papers will appear in common proceedings in the GI series 'Lecture Notes in Informatics (LNI) and should be created following the LNI format guidelines (MS Word Template). For more details on those, see: http://www.gi-ev.de/service/publikationen/lni/. The submission is performed electronically via the easy chair system (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=informatik2011). When submitting your paper via easy chair.
