by Giuliana VITIELLO

Cari Membri di SIGCHI italy, Vi scrivo per segnalarvi che il GRIN sta chiedendo ai rappresentanti di sede di raccogliere suggerimenti sulla lista di riviste pubblicata sul sito dell'ANVUR per la VQR per Informatica INFO-01/A: https://www.anvur.it/attivita/vqr/vqr-2020-2024/gev/area-1-scienze-matemati… La giunta GRIN, vorrebbe farla diventare (eventualmente emendata) una proposta ufficiale del GRIN. C'è anche la proposta di raffinarla taggando le riviste sulla base delle parole chiave della declaratoria. Quest'ultimo aspetto ci interessa particolarmente come comunità HCI e per questo vi prego, se potete, di compilare il seguente form, dopo aver esaminato il file cui il form fa riferimento https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf98qaFNg7hie-7TZL9k27l4rtNzsi2QKA… Purtroppo, come forse avrete già appreso dai vostri rappresentanti di sede, la giunta terrà una prima riunione il 14 novembre e una seconda il 21 novembre. Tutto ciò che riusciremo a suggerire in questo breve tempo sarà prezioso non solo per gli informatici ma per tutta la comunità HCI italiana. Vi ringrazio.

Re: R: Re: Elenco riviste ANVUR Informatica, sull'HCI

by Dragan Ahmetovic

Ciao a tutti, Mi pare che tutte le riviste segnalate nel settore HCI su SCIMAGO che mancavano nella lista ANVUR siano state aggiunte nel foglio condiviso, complimenti per l'accuratissimo lavoro. Invece, ho trovato su SCIMAGO svariate riviste che menzionano il settore HCI, ma non ce l'hanno tra le categorie. Moltissime di queste sono ad esempio nel settore "ergonomics". Oppure svariate riviste che trattano tecnologie assistive sono in settori diversi (es "rehabilitation") ma sono delle venue ragionevoli per chi ci lavora anche lato HCI. È il caso di segnalare anche queste? Grazie, Dragan Dragan Ahmetovic Associate Professor EveryWare Lab.

Credo che sia particolarmente importante per la nostra comunità far notare che nell'elenco manca la rivista Proceedings of ACM on Human Computer Interaction (https://dl.acm.org/journal/pacmhci), che pubblica gli articoli di alcune conferenze importanti che hanno adottato un journal model come CSCW, ISS, MobileHCI e EICS. Alcune hanno perso il ranking CORE proprio per aver adottato questo modello e quindi potrebbero cadere in un "limbo valutativo": non si considerano journal, ma la conferenza non ha ranking. La scelta del nome è stata particolarmente infelice, ma il modello è quello dei Proceedings of IEEE o Procedia in Computer Science, presenti nella lista Anvur. Ho inserito la segnalazione nel form, ma credo sia importante spargere la voce più possibile fra i rappresentanti di sede.

20th International Conference on Persuasive Technology (PERSUASIVE 2025) : Fourth Call for Contributions

by Announce

*** Fourth Call for Contributions *** 20th International Conference on Persuasive Technology (PERSUASIVE 2025) May 5-7, 2025, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus https://2025.persuasivetech.org (*** Proceedings to be published by Springer in LNCS ***) In a world in which technology is increasingly present in people’s lives, and changing human behavior and attitudes is often the key to solving many societal and personal problems, studying how technology might be used to influence humans (in their behavior, attitudes and information processing), is paramount. Persuasive Technology is a vibrant interdisciplinary research field, focusing on the design, development and evaluation of interactive technologies aimed at influencing people’s attitudes and/or behaviors through persuasion, but not through coercion or deception. The research community aims at enriching people’s lives in various domains such as health and sustainability by supporting people in setting and achieving their own goals, thus helping them change their behavior. The 2025 conference will be hosted in Limassol, Cyprus at the 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina. The previous successful conferences have been organized in Wollongong, Limassol, Eindhoven, Stanford, Oulu, Claremont, Copenhagen, Columbus, Linköping, Sydney, Padua, Chicago, Salzburg, Amsterdam, and Waterloo. The conference series seeks to bring together researchers and practitioners from industry and academia working with various topics of persuasive technology. We welcome the following categories of papers and extended abstracts: • Technical papers that introduce novel persuasive technology approaches and solutions alongside evidence of their potential. • Empirical studies which seek to provide evidence and explanation of methods, principles and theories in persuasive systems. • Conceptual-theoretical papers which primarily seek to contribute to the general understanding of the field’s core themes and specificities. • Other papers, e.g. literature reviews or experience reports. SCOPE The scope of the conference includes (but is not limited to) the following topics: • Persuasive systems’ design • Behavior change support systems • Interaction with persuasive systems, interfaces, visualization • Interactive agents in persuasive systems • (Generative) AI for persuasive technology • Tailored and personalized persuasion • Gamification for persuasion • Evaluation and validation of persuasive applications • Fitting methods for development, evaluation and implementation of persuasive systems • Optimizing engagement with persuasive systems • Software architectures and technical infrastructures for persuasive systems • Smart environments, e.g. IoT, and persuasion • Digital Marketing, eCommerce, eTourism and SMART ecosystems • Motivational, cognitive and perceptual factors in persuasive technology • Application domains for persuasive technologies such as safety, healthy living, sustainable behaviors, learning and training, marketing and commerce, work environments, organizations • Positive technology • Humanizing and/or dehumanizing effects of persuasive technology • Values and ethics in persuasive technology • Privacy, perceived security and trust in persuasive technology • Resilience and counter-persuasion • Detecting persuasive strategies in social media posts • Encouraging adherence to safety measures in pandemic situations Questions that we hope to be addressed include, but are not limited to: • How to recognize and demonstrate the real life effects of persuasive technology on people’s attitudes and behaviours? • How to conduct studies that not just show their effectiveness but are also able to explain in more detail why a design or intervention works? • How to design an evaluation study so that it yields insights that are applicable to other designs or interventions? • How theoretical insight can help improve application and/or intervention planning and design? • How can design and intervention studies improve theory? SUBMISSION TYPES Regular Papers This format is suitable for original research, which is completed work at the time of submission and, regardless of the length of the paper, is a self-sufficient scientific contribution. Papers can be full papers (12 pages, excluding references) or short papers (6 pages, excluding references) in Springer LNCS format, and describe work not presented, published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere. Accepted papers will be included in the Springer LNCS conference proceedings and be devoted a timeslot for oral presentation. Selected papers will be invited for submission to Behaviour & Information Technology journal (Taylor & Francis). Extended Abstracts We also welcome extended abstract submissions to showcase the results of already conducted studies where authors do not wish to publish them as regular papers in the conference proceedings but rather present them at the conference for discussions that can shape the final version (that may be submitted elsewhere later). The studies will be also be devoted a timeslot for oral presentation in a special session. Extended abstracts must not be more than 2 pages in CEUR format (including references). Accepted abstracts will be included in the adjunct conference proceedings (CEUR Workshop Proceedings, 1 column style, see here). Selected papers in this category, based on their quality, level of timeliness and relevance, and completion, will also be invited for submission to Behaviour & Information Technology journal. Poster Presentations This format is suitable for descriptions of smaller studies, project outlines, literature reviews or work-in-progress. Authors should submit a 2-page abstract in CEUR format (1 column style). Accepted posters will be included in the adjunct conference proceedings (CEUR Workshop Proceedings). Posters will be displayed and presented during a dedicated session of the conference. Demonstrations and Artefacts The Persuasive 2025 track on Demonstrations and Artefact is intended to foster discussion and exchange of ideas among researchers and practitioners from academia and industry by demonstrating or presenting hardware and software products or artefacts, including those in virtual settings (e.g., simulation systems, VR, and games), that range from early research prototypes to mature production-ready systems. The contribution should be the result of original, innovative work, including solving novel technical or research problems, and/or creating novel individual or industrial UI/UX. Accepted demonstrations or presentations shall be presented live during the conference. Doctoral Consortium Papers The Doctoral Consortium is a special session of the conference where PhD students can receive advice in a constructive atmosphere. Students present and discuss their research with other PhD students and a panel of established researchers in the area of persuasive technology. Students interested in participating in the Doctoral Consortium should submit a 4-page abstract in CEUR format (1 column style) describing their research question, its position with respect to the state of the art, their research plans and methodology, ideas, and results achieved so far. Accepted abstracts will be included in the adjunct conference proceedings (CEUR Workshop Proceedings) unless opted out by the student. Workshops and Tutorial Proposals Workshops are meant to gather a number of people to work interactively on an emerging topic and exchange ideas. Tutorials are intended to help people attending the conference organize a related scientific meeting on a specific topic or instruct on a specific practice. Approved workshops and tutorials will be announced on the conference website. Tutorials and workshops will take place during a half- or full-day session before the conference. If you want to organize a workshop, please submit a proposal as a maximum 4-page description in Springer LNCS format (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings- guidelines), including a description of the topic, motivation, organization (including the list of organizing members, how the organizers will form a program committee, duration of the workshop and mode of delivery: in-person/hybrid), expected outcome, and supporting materials (if applicable).

37th International Conference on Testing Software and Systems (ICTSS 2025): First Call for Papers

by Announce

*** First Call for Papers *** 37th International Conference on Testing Software and Systems (ICTSS 2025) September 17-19, 2025, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina, Limassol, Cyprus https://conf.researchr.org/home/ictss-2025 (*** Proceedings to be published by Springer in LNCS ***) IFIP-ICTSS is a well-established conference where researchers, developers, testers, and users from industry get together to present and discuss the most recent innovations, experiences and open challenges related to testing software and systems and measuring software quality. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ■ Aspects of testing: test derivation, test selection, test generation, test coverage, test concretization, test implementation and execution, test result analysis, test oracle, verdict computation, test management, active testing and passive testing, monitoring and runtime verification. ■ Testing new technologies: this year we encourage submissions focused on testing Large Language Models (LLMs), audit machine learning systems (especially for applications to Health) and Quantum systems (programs, computers, and simulators). ■ Diversity on testing: diverse generation, selecting diverse test suites, foundations of testing and diversity, applications of entropy and Kolmogorov complexity on test suite diversity. ■ Theoretical approaches: formalisms (such as automata, state machines, process algebra, logics, Markov-chains...), testing frameworks, results for compositionality, refinement, soundness and completeness, addressing complex systems, heterogeneous or hybrid systems. ■ Modelling languages (such as UML, MATLAB, Simulink, Modelica...) and associated tooling for model-based testing: test generation from models, model-based oracles. Scalability, traceability, quantification issues. Automated support of any parts of the testing activities, testing processes, test-driven development, sound metrics and measurements. ■ Testing of quality aspects: Functional, interoperability, unit, integration, performance, load, conformance, non-regression, reliability, robustness. ■ Security Testing: methodologies and techniques for continuous security assessment, security monitoring, security review, penetration testing, verification of certification compliance; automation of security testing processes. ■ Cross domains and combination of techniques: using other techniques such as proof, model-checking, symbolic execution, abstract interpretation, static analysis, simulation, model learning, machine learning, expert systems, neural networks, genetic algorithms... to improve quality and reduce the effort in testing processes. ■ Application aspects and case studies: Communicating systems such as cyberphysical systems, systems of systems, embedded systems, web services systems, smart grids, cloud computing systems, business information systems, real-time systems, distributed and concurrent systems. Case studies and industrial applications involving qualified empirical evaluations. IFIP-ICTSS Invites: Full papers (12 to 15 pages plus at most 2 extra pages for references in the one-column Springer LNCS format) describing original research contributions with sufficient evidence for the interest of the proposed approach. Industry papers (12 to 15 pages plus at most 2 extra pages for references in the one-column Springer LNCS format) describing original research or experience report conducted within an industrial environment or in collaboration with an industry partner. Short papers or work-in-progress papers (up to 6 pages plus at most 1 extra page for references in the one-column Springer LNCS format) describing academic work in progress or tool implementations, as well as testing processes, achievements and feedback on testing methods for industrial case studies. Journal-First. The aim of the Journal-First (JF) submission category is to further enrich the program of ICTSS, as well as to provide an overall more flexible path to publication and dissemination of original research that is within the scope of ICTSS. A submission in this category must adhere to the following criteria: ■ It should be clearly within the scope of the conference. ■ It should be recent: it should have been accepted and made publicly available in a journal (online or in print) by January 1, 2023 or more recently. ■ It has not been presented at, and is not under consideration for, Journal- First tracks of other conferences or workshops. ■ The submission has to be in the form of a 4-page extended abstract and has to provide a concise summary of the published journal paper. ■ It must be marked as such in the submission’s, and must explicitly include full bibliographic details (including a DOI) of the journal publication they are based on. Since the referenced journal papers have already been reviewed and accepted by the corresponding journals, submissions in the JF category will not be reviewed again for technical content. Submissions will be judged on the basis of the above criteria, but also considering how well they would complement the conference’s technical program. Accepted submissions in this category will be part of the proceedings of ICTSS 2025, with the title equal to the original title of the article with the prefix. The submission link is: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=ictss2025 The papers will be published by Springer in the LNCS volume. Authors should consult Springer’s Instructions for Authors of Proceedings (https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-gu…) and use either the LaTeX or the Word templates provided on the authors’ page. Springer’s proceedings LaTeX templates are available in Overleaf. Authors are encouraged to include their ORCIDs in their papers. Journal Special Issue Best papers of the conference will be invited to submit an extended version of their article at a special (topical) issue of the Springer Nature of Computer Science (https://link.springer.com/journal/42979). Deadline will be near the end of December 2025 with a tentative publication date for the middle 2026. Collocation ICTSS 2025 will be collocated with the 19th European Conference on Software Architecture (https://conf.researchr.org/home/ecsa-2025). IMPORTANT DATES ■ Paper Submission: May 19, 2025 (AoE) ■ Author Notification: June 30, 2025 (AoE) ■ Camera-ready Versions and Author Registration: July 14, 2025 (AoE) ORGANISATION Conference Chairs ■ Silvia Bonfanti, University of Bergamo, Italy ■ George A.
