/Haven't had the time to submit a paper? There are still plenty of ways to participate in ITS 2012!/ Call for Participation: Workshops, demos, posters, and doctoral symposium ACM Interactive Tabletops & Surfaces 2012 "Surfaces Every Day" ---------------------------- November 11-14, 2012 Cambridge, MA, USA http://its2012conf.org/ Twitter: @its_2012 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/ITS-2012/201803849895141 ------------------------------ *CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: WORKSHOPS* TS 2012 is a premier venue for presenting research in the design and use of new and emerging tabletop and interactive surface technologies. Workshops organizers will select a topic of interest and manage submissions and reviews for proposals (workshop participants should submit their proposals by October 1). Authors are welcome to submit any topic of interest, some suggestions include: * Multitouch on mobile devices * Large (wall-sized) surfaces * Surfaces in public spaces, workplaces, homes * Surfaces in domain specific environments (e.g. safety critical, education, games) * Information or Scientific Visualization on Tabletops * Works in progress * ... and other exciting topics! The workshop chairs are looking for leaders in interactive surface topics to run workshops that will last 4 hours in length and occur the day before the conference starts. We request a short 1-2 page proposal in the ITS posters format. For submission details visit: its2012conf.org/participationTutorials.html Please submit your proposal and questions to the tutorial chairs by *July 31, 5pm pacific standard time (PDT)*. *CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: DEMOS * The ITS demo session provides an interactive forum for authors to present research prototypes and work-in-progress to conference attendees and receive feedback from the leading experts in interactive surface research. Both independent demonstrations and those accompanying accepted papers and posters are welcome. At the conference, we want the ITS participants to literally get in touch with your demos with the goal of having lively discussion and a hands-on experience. Demo proposals should be submitted through our online system in the form of: * a video of up to 3 minutes length * a 2-page extended abstract that will be published in the ACM DL (Latex template, Word template) and * a supplemental text document describing the necessary spatial and technical requirements for your demo (template will be made available soon). Please submit your video and PDF documents through the conference submission system by August 7, 2012. For specific queries, please contact: demos at its2012conf.org *CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: POSTERS * We invite researchers and practitioners to submit their work to the poster category of ITS 2012. Posters provide an interactive forum for authors to present research prototypes and works in progress to conference attendees. Posters provide the opportunity for researchers to get feedback on early-stage work, and to discuss potential collaborations in an informal setting during the conference. Submissions should be in the form of a 4-page extended abstract. The posters themselves will not be submitted with the abstracts - instead they should be brought to the conference by the author. The abstracts will be published in the main conference proceedings and will be included in the conference USB memory stick. They will also be placed in the ACM Digital Library, where they will remain accessible to thousands of researchers and practitioners worldwide. Important Dates * August 7, 5 p.m. PDT: Submission deadline * September 10: Notification to authors * September 20: Camera Ready version due *CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM * The ITS Doctoral Symposium is a forum in which Ph.D. students can meet and discuss their work with each other and a panel of experienced Tabletop researchers in an informal and interactive setting. We will give preference to applicants beyond the proposal stage and well into their dissertation research. Each applicant should provide a short written paper (no more than six pages in ACM landscape format). This paper should describe ongoing work and might summarize the student's full dissertation work, or highlight a particular part in depth. In addition, each student is asked to present a poster describing his or her work to the full conference. Doctoral Symposium papers will be published in the ITS conference companion distributed at the conference.*Accepted authors will have free registration to the conference*. The Doctoral Symposium will take place at the conference venue on Sunday, November 11, 2011 (for accepted authors only!).
