[LAST DAYS] - CFP Track Accessible Devices and Technologies (ADT '26) - ACM SAC 2026

by Salvatore Gatto

Track on Accessible Devices and Technologies (ADT ‘26) Thessaloniki, Greece, March 23 - 27, 2026 Part of the 41stACM/SIGAPP Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC ‘26) https://unipd.link/ADT-2026 <https://unipd.link/ADT-2026> https://www.sigapp.org/sac/sac2026/ <https://www.sigapp.org/sac/sac2026/> Theme and Scope Modern devices and technologies can represent a digital barrier for users with disabilities, but they can be exploited to become enabling tools for them. … [View More]Accessibility of devices and technologies is a critical topic to allow inclusion of all users, especially due to the European laws that impose accessibility for new products and the definition of an updated version of WCAG (Web Accessibility Guidelines). This track invites scientists, engineers, and decision-makers from government, industry, and academia to present technical papers on their research and development results in areas of accessibility. This track can interest many researchers since it would give the chance to face a wide range of topics, i.e., web or mobile technologies, with different points of view, taking into account specific technological constraints and digital barriers. It is well-known that the so-called “curb cut effect” can be applied to any technological and digital context (in terms of devices, content, and services): technologies that were originally meant to benefit people with disabilities can help any other users. Moreover, the history and the evolution of several technologies have been influenced and/or motivated by the special needs of people with disabilities. This track will invite scientists, engineers, and decision-makers from government, industry, and academia to present technical papers on their research and development results in areas of accessibility, including but not limited to the following topics: * Accessible devices/assistive technologies: assistive technologies refer to all the assistive, adaptive, and rehabilitative devices for people with disabilities that enable users to perform tasks they were formerly unable to accomplish. On the one hand, the widespread diffusion of new devices and technologies stimulates researchers to find and apply new solutions to make them accessible to anyone. On the other hand, experiences in accessibility-related fields have been exploited and have provided benefits to users equipped with non-conventional devices when they emerged in the market. * Accessible solutions for e-learning, e-commerce, e-banking, etc: e-services and content often require specific technologies, being bounded by specific constraints when accessed by people with disabilities equipped with assistive technologies. Specific interaction modalities may affect interactive service access, while richness and quantity of content may affect the users’ ability to process information. * Accessible content: e-books, accessible TV, accessible broadcasting, etc. * Accessibility of games. * AI for Accessibility: AI can be exploited both for personalization (i.e., integrating AI-based personalization to support specific and special needs) and “enabler” (i.e., exploiting LLM to support the creation of accessible applications). Submission Guidelines We would like to invite authors to submit papers on research on the Accessibility area, with particular emphasis on assessing the current state of the art and identifying future directions. Original papers addressing any of the listed topics of interest (or related topics) will be considered. Each submitted paper will be fully refereed and undergo a double-blind review process by at least three referees. Accepted papers will be included in the ACM SAC 2026 proceedings and published in the ACM digital library, being indexed by Thomson ISI Web of Knowledge and Scopus. Submissions fall into the following categories: * Original and unpublished research work; * Reports of innovative computing applications in the arts, sciences, engineering, and business area; * Reports of successful technology transfer to new problem domains; * Reports of industrial experience and demos of new innovative systems. The track accepts full papers (max 8 pages), posters (max 2 pages), and SRC abstracts (max 2 pages). Submissions should be properly anonymized to facilitate blind reviewing. Papers that will recevie high reviews (that is acceptable by reviewer standard) but will not be accepted due to space limitations can be invited for poster session. Authors of accepted papers must be prepared to sign a copyright statement and must pay the registration fee and guarantee that their paper will be presented at the conference. No-show of scheduled papers will result in excluding the papers from the ACM Digital Library. See the track website https://unipd.link/ADT-2026 <https://unipd.link/ADT-2026>for more details. Important Dates * October 10, 2025 (EST): Submission of regular papers and SRC research abstracts * November 21, 2025: Notification of papers, posters, and SRC research abstracts * December 5, 2025: Camera-ready copies of accepted papers/SRC * December 12, 2025: Authors registration due Organization * Ombretta Gaggi, University of Padua * Silvia Mirri, University of Bologna * Mike Paciello, AudioEye, WebABLE * Catia Prandi, University of Bologna Submission Portal Please submit your contribution through our online submission portal available at https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sac2026 <https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sac2026>(regular papers) andhttps://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sacsrc2026 <https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=sacsrc2026> (SRC abstracts).

*** First Call for Research Papers *** International Conference on Software and Systems Reuse, Product Lines, and Configuration (VARIABILITY 2026) 29 September - 2 October 2026 https://conf.researchr.org/home/variability-2026<http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/GPLists_2021/lm.php?tk=aGNpdGFseQkJCWhjaXRh…> The International Conference on Software and Systems Reuse, Product Lines, and Configuration (VARIABILITY 2026) invites high-quality contributions from researchers and practitioners in … [View More]software engineering, systems engineering, and related disciplines focussing on a broad spectrum of methods, concepts, and tools for variability. VARIABILITY aims to be the premier forum for the exchange of ideas, experiences, and results in all aspects of software and systems variability management, reuse, software configuration, and customization. As software and systems become increasingly configurable, reusable, and adaptable, managing their variability across all lifecycle phases is more critical—and more challenging —than ever. VARIABILITY 2026 seeks to bring together the diverse communities that address these challenges from theoretical, technical, and practical perspectives. VARIABILITY results from a merge of three prominent conferences focussing on software and systems variability, configuration and reuse: SPLC (the International Systems and Software Product Line Conference, 29 successful editions), VaMoS (the International Working Conference on Variability Modelling of Software-Intensive Systems, 19 successful editions), and ICSR (the International Conference on Systems and Software Reuse, 22 successful editions). VARIABILITY is by design open as a conference. It welcomes new fields of variability- intensive research, such as artificial intelligence, hybrid software-hardware systems, etc. For this first edition of VARIABILITY, we strive to continue the success of the predecessor conferences ICSR, SPLC, and VaMoS by welcoming high-quality submissions for the research track in numerous closely related areas, such as systems and software product lines, systems and software reuse, configurable systems and software, product configuration, and systems and software variability. We will award the best research paper and the best artifact paper.

by Eleftheria Lito Michanetzi

Call for Papers for the Second Submission Round EICS 2026 – The 18th ACM SIGCHI Symposium on Engineering Interactive Computing Systems June 30 – July 3, 2026 Patras, Greece https://eics.acm.org/2026/ Submission deadline (2nd Round, Full Papers & Technical Notes): October 24, 2025 About EICS EICS 2026 is the eighteenth international ACM SIGCHI conference devoted to engineering interactive computing systems and their user interfaces, addressing one or more software quality factors, … [View More]such as usability, user experience, reliability, security, etc. Work presented at EICS covers all stages of the engineering life-cycle of interactive systems - inception, requirements, design, specification, coding, data analytics, validation and verification, deployment and maintenance. EICS has the longest tradition of bringing together researchers who contribute to better ways of creating interactive computing systems, stemming from the conference on command languages in the seventies. The conference is best known for rigorously contributing and disseminating research results that hold the midst in between user interface design, software engineering and computational interaction. EICS focuses on models, languages, notations, methods, techniques and tools that support designing, developing, validating and verifying interactive systems. The conference brings together people who study or practice the engineering of interactive systems, drawing from design, HCI, software engineering, requirements engineering, software development, modeling, and programming. Submissions advance the state of the art of the engineering of interactive systems. Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to: - Contributions should advance the state of the art in engineering interactive systems. Topics include (but are not limited to): - Modelling, specification, and analysis of interaction and interactive systems - Requirements engineering for interactive systems - Methods, processes, principles, and tools for building interactive systems (design, prototyping, evaluation, testing, etc.) - Software architectures for interactive systems - Formal methods within interactive systems engineering - Bridging engineering and design practices - Engineering design and evaluation tools - Computational techniques for designing/evaluating interactive systems - Interactive data-driven systems - Interaction techniques & devices (adaptive, tangible, haptic, voice, gestures, multimodal, VR/AR/MR/XR, wearable systems, etc.) - Integration of hardware/software in interactive systems (fabrication, cyber-physical systems, physical computing) - Systems for diverse user groups (children, elderly, people with disabilities) - Collaborative multi-user interactive systems - AI and interactive systems: - Engineering systems embedding AI - Interaction-driven AI technologies - AI in the engineering lifecycle (design, prototyping, evaluation, etc.) Newcomer’s Guide: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3300960 Full Papers & Technical Notes Submissions EICS Full Papers and Technical Notes are published as articles in the Journal Proceedings of the ACM on Human-Computer Interaction (PACM - EICS series). There are three submission deadlines per year, and authors can choose when to submit. Papers follow the traditional journal model of reviewing: papers may be accepted after submission and review, or may be recommended for revisions and re-submission to the next round to enable authors to refine papers based on reviewer recommendations. Submissions for the journal of this venue should present original and mature research work within the scope of the conference. Note that accepted journal papers can be either regular research papers, or technical notes. Technical Notes are shorter, more focused contributions, that focus specifically on system contributions and technical work. Elucidating technical details of complex interactive systems, preferably ensuring the work can be reproduced or put to practice, is a primary objective of a Technical Note. Tech Notes require an illustrative example of the system, and they can, but do not need to, be validated by formal user evaluations or user studies. Validation can also be done through e.g. simulation, feasibility, or comparisons. Tech Notes will be judged on their technical merits and relevance to interactive systems concerns. There are no length restrictions on Full Papers and Technical Notes, nor any limit to the number of references that may be included. We advise authors to ensure the length of their papers is in function of the contributions. Concise and clear is often to be preferred over lengthy and verbose. Full Papers and Technical Notes should be written in the ACM format, see https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions Papers should comply with the ACM policy on Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects, see https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/research-involving-human-particip… Papers are submitted using https://new.precisionconference.com IMPORTANT UPDATE on ACM’s new open access publishing model for 2026 ACM Conferences: Starting January 1, 2026, ACM will fully transition to Open Access. All ACM publications, including those from ACM-sponsored conferences, will be 100% Open Access. Authors will have two primary options for publishing Open Access articles with ACM: the ACM Open institutional model or by paying Article Processing Charges (APCs). Authors from institutions not participating in ACM Open will need to pay an APC to publish their papers, unless they qualify for a financial or discretionary waiver.

The Annual ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI 2026): Last Call for Papers

by Announce

*** Last Call for Papers *** The Annual ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI 2026) March 23-26, 2026, 5* Coral Beach Hotel & Resort, Paphos, Cyprus https://iui.hosting.acm.org/2026/<http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/GPLists_2021/lm.php?tk=aGNpdGFseQkJCWhjaXRh…> The ACM Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (ACM IUI) is the annual premier venue where researchers and practitioners meet and discuss state-of-the-art advances at the intersection of Artificial … [View More]Intelligence (AI) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Ideal IUI submissions should address practical HCI challenges using machine intelligence and discuss both computational and human-centric aspects of such methodologies, techniques, and systems. This area is crucial as AI is increasingly integrated into everyday technology. Understanding and shaping AI systems for human needs is essential to ensure that AI systems are effective and responsible. As these techniques become increasingly powerful, new use cases and human-AI interactions can be explored. This conference offers an opportunity to focus the research community on important problems at the intersection of AI and HCI and bring together experts from various disciplines to discuss and build on these ideas in workshops, breaks, and networking sessions. Contributions are welcome from all relevant arenas, including academia, industry, government, and non-profit organizations. Diverse insights are critical to the vitality of the IUI community, and the conference will accept papers for both long and short oral presentations. Contributions to IUI are expected to be supported by rigorous evidence appropriate to the claims (e.g., user study, system evaluation, computational analysis). Topics IUI 2026 topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Human-centered AI methods, approaches, and systems • Explainable AI methods • Democratization of AI • Persuasive technologies in IUI • Privacy and security of IUI • Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design and generation • User modelling for intelligent interfaces • User-adaptive interaction and personalization • IUI for crowd computing and human computation • Human control in daily automations • Trust and reliance in intelligent systems Computational innovation • Interactive machine learning • Human-in-the loop AI testing and debugging • Human-centered recommendation and recommender systems • Generative models • Human-in-the-loop reinforcement learning • Intelligent user interfaces for generative AI Innovative User Interfaces • Affective interfaces • Intelligent aesthetic interfaces • Intelligent collaborative interfaces • Intelligent AR/VR interfaces • Intelligent visualization and visual analytics • Intelligent wearable and mobile interfaces • Intelligent tangible interfaces Intelligent Multimodal Systems • Embodied agents • Multimodal AI assistants • Intelligent multimodal interfaces Intelligent Applications • Education and learning-related technologies • Healthcare and wellbeing • Automotive • Assistive technologies • Entertainment • Workplace happiness • Social media • Internet of Things (IoT) • Smart homes Large Language Models and Agentic AI • End-user interaction with LLMs, agents, and multimodal models (e.g., chatbots, image generation) • LLMs and agents in the workplace • Human-agent interaction and multi-agent systems • Bias in LLMs and agents • The effects of LLMs and agents use on creative tasks • Personalized user interaction with LLMs and agents • Prompt engineering • User control and steering of LLMs and agents (e.g., RLHF, chaining, instruction tuning) Evaluations of Intelligent User Interfaces • User experiments and studies • Reproducibility (including benchmarks, datasets, and challenges) • Meta-analysis • Mixed-methods evaluations Papers We invite original paper submissions that are not under consideration elsewhere. Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation indices. At least one author of all accepted papers must register with full registration fee (not student registration fee), attend in person, and present their paper during the main conference program. One registration covers one paper only. A selected set of accepted top-quality full papers will be invited to submit their extended versions for publication in an ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS) special issue titled “Highlights of IUI 2026” that will appear in 2027. Reflection of practical and societal impact We encourage authors to consider practical and societal implications of their work (as well as its shortcomings) throughout their projects and to include a reflection on those implications in their papers, in particular how the proposed methods and insights could be applied and deployed in a realistic setting and how they can improve people's lives in the real world. We also encourage authors to discuss potential ethical considerations of their work in terms of diversity, inclusion, and equality; and other topics under the broad responsible AI topic and its societal impact. We recognize that technology is rarely neutral --- simply by making some things easier than others, it reshapes society (Winner, 1980; Green, 2020). Further, given the incredibly short invention-to-application cycles for AI-related technologies, it is becoming increasingly unlikely that “somebody else” will carefully consider how an emerging intelligent user interface technology might impact the world before this technology is deployed. Our purpose is to help authors ensure that the likely societal consequences of their work are consistent with their intentions and values. For colleagues who are not yet experienced with incorporating societal impacts into their IUI research but who are willing to give it a try, here are some ideas to consider. Anonymization ACM IUI uses a double-blind review process. All submissions (and supplemental materials) must be appropriately anonymized according to the following guidelines: • Authors' names and affiliations are not visible anywhere in the paper. • Acknowledgements should be anonymized or removed during the review process. • Self-citations should be included where necessary but must use the third person. For example, "... as shown in our previous user study [2] ... " is not allowed, whereas "... as shown in Smith et al. [2] " is acceptable (because in this case the citation [2] will NOT be perceived as self-citation). In addition, non-anonymized versions of the submission should not be posted on any pre-print platform. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in submissions being desk-rejected without review. Accessibility Authors are asked to make their paper submissions accessible (so that reviewers with vision impairments can access them, for example). The authors of accepted papers will be required to make their final PDFs accessible. Please use the SIGCHI Guide to an Accessible Submission for detailed instructions. If you are submitting a video as supplemental material, please provide captions, as described in Technical Requirements and Guidelines for Videos. Please refer to the Accessibility page of the conference site for further details and guidelines. Usage of Generative AI All submissions must comply with the ACM policy on the usage of GenAI: the April 2023 ACM Policy on Authorship and Frequently Asked Questions. Text generated from a large-scale language model (LLM), such as ChatGPT, must be clearly marked where such tools are used for purposes beyond editing the author’s own text. Authors should include a “GenAI Usage Disclosure” section, right before the references, to provide full disclosure of all use of GenAI tools in all stages of the research (including the code and data) and the writing. This section, together with the references, will not be counted toward the word limit. While we do not anticipate using tools on a large scale to detect LLM-generated text, we will investigate submissions brought to our attention and desk reject papers where LLM use is not clearly marked. Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects Any research in submitted manuscripts that involves human subjects must go through the appropriate ethics review requirements that apply to the authors’ research environment. As research environments vary considerably with regard to their requirements, authors are asked to submit a short note to reviewers that provides this context. Please also see the 2021 ACM Publications policy on research involving human participants and subjects before submitting. Additional Policies Authors should also be aware of the SIGCHI Policy for Submission and Review at SIGCHI Conferences and ACM Publications Policies. Submission Format, Length, and Platform We adopt the ACM TAPS Workflow. Please prepare your submission for review in a single column format, using the latest templates: Word Submission Template, or the LaTeX template using \documentclass[manuscript,review,anonymous]{acmart} for the LaTeX template. Papers are of variable length. Paper length must be proportional to its contribution. We encourage authors to stay within a 10,000 word limit. Authors of papers exceeding 12,000 words should add a note at the end of their manuscript explaining how the length of the paper is commensurate with the contribution of the work. Submission Platform All materials must be submitted electronically to the Precision Conference Submission (PCS) Portal (https://new.precisionconference.com/<http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/GPLists_2021/lm.php?tk=aGNpdGFseQkJCWhjaXRh…>) by the abstract and paper deadlines. In PCS, first click “Submissions” at the top of the page, from the dropdown menus for Society, Conference, and Track, please select “SIGCHI”, “IUI 2026”, and “IUI 2026 Papers”, respectively, and then press “Go”. Note: If the corresponding author (the individual who submits the paper, not necessarily the first author) is affiliated with a participating institution that has an open access agreement with ACM, the Article Processing Charges (APCs) will be waived for publishing the paper. Details are under “Publication and Open Access”. Supplemental Materials Submitting supplemental material (e.g., questionnaires, demo videos of applications, data sheets) is optional but encouraged. If supplying a demo video, please follow the SIGCHI Technical Requirements and Guidelines for videos. Publication and Open Access The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. Starting January 1, 2026, ACM will fully transition to Open Access. All ACM publications, including those from ACM-sponsored conferences, will be 100% Open Access. Authors will have two primary options for publishing Open Access articles with ACM: the ACM Open institutional model or by paying Article Processing Charges (APCs). With over 1,800 institutions already part of ACM Open, the majority of ACM-sponsored conference papers will not require APCs from authors or conferences (currently, around 70-75%). Authors from institutions not participating in ACM Open will need to pay an APC to publish their papers, unless they qualify for a financial or discretionary waiver. To find out whether an APC applies to your article, please consult the list of participating institutions in ACM Open and review the APC Waivers and Discounts Policy. Keep in mind that waivers are rare and are granted based on specific criteria set by ACM. Understanding that this change could present financial challenges, ACM has approved a temporary subsidy for 2026 to ease the transition and allow more time for institutions to join ACM Open. The subsidy will offer: * $250 APC for ACM/SIG members * $350 for non-members This represents a 65% discount, funded directly by ACM. Authors are encouraged to help advocate for their institutions to join ACM Open during this transition period. This temporary subsidized pricing will apply to all conferences scheduled for 2026. Important Dates (AoE) • Abstract: October 3, 2025 • Full Paper: October 10, 2025 • Decision Notification: December 12, 2025 • Camera-ready Submission: January 23, 2026 Organisation General Chairs • Tsvi Kuflik, The University of Haifa, Israel • Styliani Kleanthous, Open University of Cyprus, Cyprus Local Organising Chair • George A.
