Dear all,

Please find the Call for Papers for our next workshop, Transparent Autonomy and Human Work Interaction Design (TA-HWID), co-located with INTERACT 2025 (https://interact2025.org/), taking place from 8–12 September 2025 in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. This one-day hybrid workshop will take place on either the first or second day of the conference.

I look forward to seeing you in Brazil or online.

Best regards,

CALL FOR PAPERS

Transparent Autonomy and Human Work Interaction Design (TA-HWID) Workshop
https://wg6.ifip-tc13.org/tahwid/

Hybrid workshop organized by WG13.6 on Human Work Interaction Design

Co-located with INTERACT 2025: 20th IFIP TC13 International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction

8 - 12 September 2025, Belo Horizonte, Brazil

#############################################################

Workshop Theme:

To acquire an appropriate level of trust between workers and between workers and autonomous (or AI) systems, supporting transparency is desirable to convey awareness of each other’s intents, reasoning processes, and future tasks. To achieve transparency, existing models recommend bi-directional communication and the explanation of AI outputs and processes. Consequently, workers acquire new tasks to collaborate with non-human teammates. This workshop aims to investigate the impact of transparency mechanisms on human work through the HWID lens.

This workshop aims to (a) explore models and methods for human work interaction design of transparent autonomy and approaches to adapt workers’ skills and tasks to these environments, (b) collect case studies that investigate transparent human-autonomy teams through an HWID perspective, (c) initiate a reflection on guidance for designing transparent autonomy in human work interaction design.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Participants are asked to submit a position paper describing human work interaction design research, combining work analysis and interaction design, related to models, methods, case studies, or evaluations including (but not limited to):
•    Transparent human-autonomy collaboration at work
•    Explainable AI to support workers
•    Training with or for collaboration with autonomy or AI
•    User experience with transparent autonomous teammate at work
•    Novel research methods, such as art-based research on collaboration with AI and autonomy at work

--------------------------------------------------------------

Submission Guidelines:

- Participants must submit a four-page position paper.
- Papers should be formatted according to the INTERACT proceedings format: https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines.
