by Giuseppe Caggianese

Dear Colleagues, Due to the several requests of deferral received in the last days, the deadline for Abstract Submissions has been EXTENDED. The new deadline for submitting a paper proposal for the special session on "eXtended Reality as a gateway to the Metaverse: Practices, Theories, Technologies and Applications" is *April 10, 2024 - Extended and Firm Deadline*. Then, you will have time to finalize your work by the deadline of *May 15*. Please see the CfP below for details and forward it … [View More]to colleagues who might be interested in contributing to this special session. Best regards, Giuseppe Caggianese ==================================================================================== Call for Papers - Special Session on: “EXTENDED REALITY AS A GATEWAY TO THE METAVERSE: PRACTICES, THEORIES, TECHNOLOGIES AND APPLICATIONS” https://metroxraine.org/special-session-6 2024 IEEE International Conference on Metrology for eXtended Reality, Artificial Intelligence, and Neural Engineering (IEEE MetroXRAINE 2024) https://metroxraine.org/ October 21-23, 2024 - St Albans, London, UK. ==================================================================================== SPECIAL SESSION DESCRIPTION ------------------------- The fast development of Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) solutions over the last few years are transforming how people interact, work, and communicate. The eXtended Reality (XR) term encloses all those immersive technologies that can shift the boundaries between digital and physical worlds to realize the metaverse. According to tech companies and venture capitalists, the metaverse will be a super-platform that convenes sub-platforms: social media, online video games, and ease-of-life apps, all accessible through the same digital space and sharing the same digital economy. Inside the metaverse, virtual worlds will allow avatars to carry out all human endeavours, including creation, display, entertainment, social, and trading. Thus, the metaverse will evolve how users interact with brands, intellectual properties, health services, cultural heritage, and each other things on the Internet. A user could join friends to play a multiplayer game, watch a movie via a streaming service and then attend a university course precisely the same as in the real world. The metaverse development will require new software architecture that will enable decentralized and collaborative virtual worlds. These self-organized virtual worlds will be permanent and will require maintenance operations. In addition, it will be necessary to design an efficient data management system and prevent privacy violations. Finally, the convergence of physical reality, virtually enhanced, and an always-on virtual space highlighted the need to rethink the actual paradigms for visualization, interaction, and sharing of digital information, moving toward more natural, intuitive, dynamically customizable, multimodal, and multi-user solutions. This special session aims to focus on exploring how the realization of the metaverse can transform certain application domains such us: (i) healthcare, in which the metaverse solutions can, for instance, improve the communication between patients and physicians; (ii) cultural heritage, with potentially more effective solutions for tourism guidance, site maintenance, and heritage object conservation; and (iii) industry, where to enable data-driven decision making, smart maintenance, and overall asset optimisation. More information can be found here: https://metroxraine.org/special-session-6 TOPICS ---------- The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - Hardware/Software Architectures for metaverse - Decentralized and Collaborative Architectures for metaverse - Interoperability for metaverse - Tools to help creators to build the metaverse - Operations and Maintenance in metaverse - Data security and privacy mechanisms for metaverse - Cryptocurrency, token, NFT Solutions for metaverse - Fraud-Detection in metaverse - Cyber Security for metaverse - Data Analytics to Identify Malicious Behaviors in metaverse - Blockchain/AI technologies in metaverse - Emerging Technologies and Applications for metaverse - New models to evaluate the impact of the metaverse - Interactive Data Exploration and Presentation in metaverse - Human-Computer Interaction for metaverse - Human factors issues related to metaverse - Proof-of-Concept in Metaverse: Experimental Prototyping and Testbeds IMPORTANT DATES ------------------------ Abstract Submission Deadline: April 10, 2024 (Extended and Firm Deadline) Final Paper Submission Deadline: May 15, 2024 (Extended and Firm Deadline) Full Paper Acceptance Notification: June 15, 2024 Final Paper Submission Deadline: July 31, 2024 SUBMISSION AND DECISIONS ------------------------ Authors should prepare an Abstract (1 - 2 pages) that clearly indicates the originality of the contribution and the relevance of the work.

CFP: CoPDA 2024 - 8th Int. Workshop on Cultures of Participation in the Digital Age (@ AVI 2024) - EXTENDED DEADLINE April 10th

by Antonio Piccinno

------------------- Call for Papers (NEW SUBMISSION DEADLINE April 10th) ------------------- CoPDA 2024 - 8th International Workshop on Cultures of Participation in the Digital Age: Differentiating and Deepening the Concept of "End User" in the Digital Age https://homes.di.unimi.it/cslab/copda2024/ June 3rd or 4th, 2024 - Arenzano (Genoa), Italy In conjunction with AVI 2024 (https://avi2024.dibris.unige.it/home) ------------ Overview ------------ Recent developments in Artificial … [View More]Intelligence (AI) and meta-design challenge the understanding of the concept of “end user”. The 8th edition of this workshop aims to critically differentiate, dissect, and deepen the roles, experiences, and demands of end users by inviting contributions from different perspectives. The workshop invites contributions to explore the following fundamental issues: - Re-conceptualizing the multi-faceted roles that end users can play. - Investigating how end users are evolving into active participants in the design and development through frameworks (such as meta-design) that encourage creation, modification, and evolution in individual and group activities. - Understanding the skills and literacies (e.g., computational fluency) that end users need to acquire to be successful contributors (e.g., education, after-school clubs, etc.). - Envisioning future scenarios and possibilities for end user roles and experiences in the context of emerging technologies and cultural changes. - Understanding the design trade-offs associated with balancing the potential value of end-user contributions with the necessary effort to ensure that end users will be motivated to contribute over long periods of time. Participants from academia, industry, and user communities are invited to share their ideas, insights, and experiences to increase our collective understanding and approach towards end users in the digital age. Topics of discussion may include (but will not be limited to): - Analysis of the use and historical development of the concept of “end user” - Can meta-design frameworks facilitate and empower end users in becoming designers, shaping and adapting systems to their needs? - What are the major responsibilities for end users in "end-user development” and/versus "end-user software engineering"? - If computational fluency is widely achieved by humans in the digital age — how will this change the concept of "end user" and “learning with digital tools”? - How can the division between professional developers and end users be designed and supported as collaborative interactions rather than a rigid separation? - How do we scale up user participation from individuals to groups to communities? - In which contexts are end users the drivers of the innovation? - Which other frameworks and environments in AI exist in addition to Large Language Models (LLMs) for supporting end users? - How does the role of end users change in the era of LLMs? - Which additional learning demands occur that empower end users to assess LLM possibilities and limits? - Success stories and failures (e.g., empirical studies) involving or analyzing end users as active participants in sociotechnical systems in different domains (education, workplace, at home, leisure, etc.). ----------------- Submissions ---------------- Authors are invited to submit a 6-page position paper using the 1-column CEUR template available at http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip. An Overleaf page for LaTeX users is also available at https://www.overleaf.com/read/gwhxnqcghhdt The papers can be submitted at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=copda2024 All papers will be peer-reviewed by at least two members of the Program Committee.
