They should place the work within the field of HCI and clearly indicate innovative aspects. Research procedures and technical methods should be presented in sufficient detail to ensure scrutiny and reproducibility. Results should be clearly communicated and implications of the contributions/findings for CHItaly and beyond should be explicitly discussed. Short papers should present original and provocative research or novel applications, relevant for CHItaly. Merit will be assessed in terms of originality and importance rather than maturity, extensive technical validation, and user studies. All submissions must be in English. Both types of papers are subject to a double-blind review process by members of the Program Committee. Submissions must be anonymous, avoiding to include information (authorship, acknowledgements, name of application or software or project) suggestive of the identity of the authors; it will be added later, to the camera-ready version of the accepted papers. Inclusion in the main proceedings is conditional upon registration of the presenter within the recommended deadline.   ================================================ [ Review Process ] ================================================ All long and short paper submissions will be reviewed by at least two PC members in a double-blind process.
