Conference Overview
-------------------

Intelligent user interfaces mediate between person and machine to
increase the ease and effectiveness of user interactions.  Research in
intelligent user interfaces draws on areas such as artificial
intelligence and human-computer-interaction to support a wide range of
users, from novices to experts; to support a wide range of tasks and
task environments; and to exploit a wide range of platforms, from
traditional systems to mobile devices and novel interaction paradigms.

IUI is the annual meeting of the intelligent interfaces community, and
serves as the principal international forum for reporting outstanding
research and development in intelligent user interfaces.  IUI 2003,
the Seventh IUI, will be held The Palms South Beach hotel in Miami
Beach, Florida (www.thepalmshotel.com), from January 12-15, 2003.

Student Program
---------------

The student program for IUI 2003 will be similar to that of years past

communicate with other students prior to the conference. The forum is
intended to help you find ways to reduce the overall cost of the
conference. Please use it to find others with whom you might share
expenses such as hotel rooms and transportation. The forum is
Web-based and is publicly accessible at the following URL:
