About Tutorials
EICS 2026 invites proposals for tutorials on the engineering of
interactive computing systems. Tutorials are intended to provide a broad
and in-depth overview of a topic beyond a regular paper presentation, to
inform and train participants in new or emerging approaches, or to
expand on techniques, methods, and processes that improve how complex
interactive systems can be built.
Tutorials should be designed for a diverse audience, including PhD
students, experienced practitioners, and specialised researchers. Each
proposal will be evaluated based on its anticipated benefit for
participants, its fit within the overall tutorial program, relevance to
research and practice, timeliness, importance, audience appeal, and the
instructors’ expertise and experience.
EICS aims to stimulate and support the creation of reusable tutorial
materials and to provide a platform for presenters to distribute
instructional content that can be cited and reused by the community.
Depending on circumstances, tutorials may need to be delivered online;
presenters should take this possibility into account when preparing
their proposals.
Tutorial Submissions
Tutorials will be assigned time slots ranging from a minimum of 1 hour
to a maximum of 3 hours. Proposals requesting longer durations should
clearly motivate the need for additional time.
Each tutorial proposal must include:
- A description (maximum two pages, including text and figures) of the
proposed tutorial
- A separate PDF file containing sample material that would be presented
if the tutorial is accepted
- Background information on the presenters
The proposal description should include the following information:
- Title and abstract: A clear title and abstract that allow attendees to
quickly understand the tutorial’s subject
- Aim and objectives: The overall aim of the tutorial and the concrete
learning outcomes for participants, including its relevance to the EICS
community
- Target audience: Intended audience level (basic or advanced) and any
prerequisites
- Basic structure: Intended duration and planned structure (e.g.,
sequence of topics)
- Operational requirements: Any requirements beyond a standard PC
projector (e.g., audio equipment)
- References: Key papers, books, or other materials the tutorial builds
upon
Tutorial submissions will be selected by the Tutorial Chairs, possibly
with additional reviewers. Authors will receive light feedback on their
proposals.
Format and Submission Guidelines
Tutorial submissions must follow the ACM TAPS process and use the
official single-column template. Authors must not use the old
double-column format. Must be submitted via:
https://new.precisionconference.com
Use of Generative AI in Manuscript Preparation
Authors must comply with ACM’s policy on the use of Generative AI in
authoring papers, available at:
https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/frequently-asked-questions
All submissions will be evaluated according to this policy. Papers that
breach these guidelines risk desk rejection.
Citation Guidelines
Authors are kindly requested to ensure that references report the
correct publication format to facilitate citation indexing, particularly
for conferences publishing in journal proceedings such as PACM. Please
avoid informal conference-style citations when a PACM reference is
available.
