[Deadline extended] CfP for the workshop "New trends in Sports and HCI" at MobileHCI 2022

by Eleonora Mencarini

*** Apologies for cross-posting*** Dear colleagues, The deadline of the “New trends in sports and HCI” workshop at MobileHCI’22 has been postponed to *June 9, 2022, AoE*. CALL FOR PAPERS The field of HCI for sports is evolving under the push of new technological developments and worldwide natural events, such as the Covid-19 pandemic and climate change. Recent technological advancements have widened the possibilities of HCI in the sports domain by paving the way to augmented humans, inbodied interactions, esports, new forms of sociality thanks to virtual reality and the metaverse, and new ways for engaging the audience thanks to AI. Whereas contextual factors, such as the Covid-19 pandemic and climate change, seem to pull the sports trends in opposite directions: on the one hand, they foster the indoorisation and individualization of sports, as we can see by the spreading of home training systems such as bike rollers and related apps; and, on the other hand, they encourage practicing outdoor sports to take advantage of the ‘restorative power’ of nature. With this workshop, we invite the HCI community to discuss the current trends for portable technologies for sports and trace future directions for HCI research in this field. TOPICS OF INTEREST - Possible topics for submissions may include (but are not limited to):‬‬ - Wearable/mobile technologies for sports - Interactive systems for the indoorisation of outdoor sports - Phenomenology of sports (how to report the sports experience) - Augmented feedback for sports - Augmented human capabilities in sports - Immersive technologies for sports - Exergames - Gamification techniques for sports - Superhuman sports HOW TO APPLY? We invite paper submissions (*minimum 12.500 characters long/about 5 pages*) in the form of a research, reflection, pictorial, provocation, or design fiction using the ACM SIGCHI template via Easy Chair. A program committee will assess the submissions based on their potential to spark an interesting discussion. Proceedings of the accepted submissions will be published with CEUR and indexed in Scopus. IMPORTANT DATES *[NEW] submission deadline: June 9, 2022, AoE* Notification: June 24, 2022 Workshop: October 1, 2022 ATTENDANCE The “New Trends in HCI and Sports” will take place *online*. The workshop activities and discussions will be organized accordingly. ORGANIZERS Eleonora Mencarini, FBK (Italy) Amon Rapp, University of Torino (Italy) Ashley Colley, University of Lapland (Finland) Florian Daiber, DFKI (Germany) Micheal D.

Research areas could involve the design, building, or evaluation of technologies involving or relating to human-centric AI and issues of human-centric AI, such as trust and fairness. This goal aligns with the theme of the 2022 VL/HCC main conference. Other areas within the remit of VL/HCC are also welcome. *Why You Should Participate* - Present your work to a smaller, more attentive audience - Get detailed, critical, constructive feedback from a diverse panel of experts - Meet other students working on similar problems - Travel funding may be available to help cover your cost of attending VL/HCC (details below). *Who Can Participate?* The consortium is open to both master's and PhD students worldwide. Participation is particularly encouraged from PhD students who are close to proposing a thesis, as well as from members of groups identified by NSF as underrepresented in the sciences and engineering. If multiple applicants from a particular university apply for the consortium this year, then no more than two per university will be selected to participate. To be eligible, each applicant may have participated no more than once in the VL/HCC graduate consortia of past years. *Application Process* Email the following items with *_VLHCC22-GC_* in the subject line to *Andrew Fish at [andrew.fish `at' brighton.ac.uk <http://brighton.ac.uk>]* and *Thomas LaToza [tlatoza `at' gmu.edu <http://gmu.edu>]:* - A 2-page research abstract, formatted as a PDF in the standard IEEE Conference Proceedings format. NOTE: Accepted participants' abstracts will be included in the conference proceedings. To make it easier for you to write a successful abstract, we provide examples from past years below. Your curriculum vitae (CV), as a second PDF file. This CV should mention whether you have previously participated in any graduate consortia at any conferences. - A letter of recommendation sent directly by your thesis advisor. This letter should summarize your accomplishments and describe how far along you are in your master's or PhD program, why attending the GC this year would be important for you, and please ask them to mention if you have already attended VL/HCC GC in any past year. In addition, if you are a member of a group designated by NSF as underrepresented, then the letter may mention this fact. *Selection Process* For one-third of the slots, students who have participated once before will be given priority. The remaining slots will be given to students who are new to the event. Each student from the returning group will be linked with new students in a mentoring arrangement. See _Who Can Participate?_ above for additional selection criteria. *Posters* Selected students will be asked to present a poster on their work at the Showpieces Reception during the main conference. Details will be provided to accepted applicants. *Travel Support* We expect to be able to offer partial funding for travel expenses for US participants to attend, contingent on the availability of funds. *Schedule* The consortium event will be a full day the Monday before the main conference. All participating students are expected to attend the main conference as well as the graduate consortium. Other conference attendees are invited to attend the consortium, to listen to the presentations, to interact with participants, and to give feedback to presenters. More details will be provided, closer to the event, including times and locations. *Examples of Successful Applications* To be successful, a submission to the VL/HCC Graduate Consortium generally has to have the following parts: 1. The paper starts with a sentence or two that describes a real-world setting. 2. It then identifies a problem in that setting. 3. The remainder of the paper's introduction outlines an approach for solving that problem. 4. In a subsequent section, the paper describes a prototype or preliminary study showing the feasibility of that approach. 5. The paper explains why more work is still required in addition to this prior work. 6. The paper concludes by describing future work that will build on this prior work in order to finish completing the approach. 7. Somewhere along the way, the paper explains how the approach builds on, or differs from, other related work. We have annotated three excellent submissions that exemplify the pattern described above (PDFs available via links at https://conf.researchr.org/track/vlhcc-2022/vlhcc-2022-graduate-consortium). We hope that you will find these examples thought-provoking and helpful as you design your own submission this year. - [Information on the Web: How End Users Make Use of Data] - [Roles in Online Collaborative Problem Solving] - [Re-forming the Internet with its End Users] *Panel Members and Organizers* - Andrew Fish, University of Brighton (chair) - Thomas LaToza, George Mason University (chair) - Margaret Burnett, Oregon State University - Brittany Johnson-Matthews, George Mason University -- Emanuele Panizzi Associate Professor Computer Science Department Faculty of Information Engineering, Informatics, and Statistics Sapienza University of Rome, Italy

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 include, but are not limited to: * Modeling, specification and analysis of interaction and interactive systems * Model-based development of interactive software * Requirements engineering for interactive systems * Methods, processes, principles and/or tools for building interactive systems (e.g., design, implementation, prototyping, evaluation, verification and validation, testing) * Software architectures for interactive systems * Formal methods within interactive systems engineering * Certification issues of methods, tools, and processes to create interactive systems * Frameworks, toolkits, domain-specific languages and APIs for interactive systems * Languages and notations for describing user interfaces and interactions * Integrating engineering issues in the design process of interactive systems * Engineering design tools * Engineering evaluation tools * Supporting design in interactive development processes * Computational-Interaction Systems and Techniques * Interactive data-driven systems * Engineering interactive applications with emerging technologies (e.g., adaptive, context-aware, tangible, haptic, touch and multitouch input, voice, gestures, EEG, multimodal input, mobile and wearable systems, AI, (augmented, mixed, virtual) realities...) * Engineering hardware/software integration in interactive systems (e.g., fabrication and maker processes, physical computing, cyber-physical systems…) * Engineering interactive systems for various user categories (e.g., children, elderly, people with disabilities,…) * Engineering interactive systems for various application domains (e.g., health, home, entertainment, desktop, avionics, space, nuclear, civil protection, law enforcement, emergency services and calamity management...) * Engineering interactive systems for specific properties (user experience, usability, safety, security, dependability, …) * Engineering smart interactive systems (e.g. recommending, adaptive, intelligent) * Building Human-centred AI systems (integrating explainable AI, intelligible design, human-in-the-loop, adaptive and context-aware, interactive agents…) A newcomer’s guide to EICS is available at https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3300960 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FULL PAPERS and 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. New from this year: 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 above lengthy and verbose. More information about the next PACM-HCI (EICS series) review and publication process can be found at http://eics.acm.org/pacm. Full Papers should be written in the ACM format, see https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions The PACM-EICS submission deadline for the first round of submissions is 22 July 2022.
