MIDI 2014, WARSAW, POLAND: Multimedia-Interaction-Design-Innovation
** CALL FOR CONFERENCE PAPERS ** (Abstracts due 17 February, 2014)
:: MIDI 2014: MultimediaInteractionDesign-Innovation ::
24-25 June 2014, Warsaw (Poland)
http://www.midi.pjwstk.edu.pl
*** CONFERENCE AIM AND SCOPE
During the past years, innovative design approaches and new technologies
brought a tremendous change in the way in which people interact with
computers. Integration of multimedia and innovative on-line services is
a stimulus to explore how these changes might open new perspectives for
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and leverage cross-domain synergy in
interaction design and research.
MIDI Conference, organized by the Polish-Japanese Institute of
Information Technology (PJWSTK) in Warsaw (Poland), aims at being a
leading, cross-disciplinary HCI-related scientific event in Central
Europe.
MIDI Conference provides an interdisciplinary discussion forum for
academics, designers, developers and practitioners working on challenges
and opportunities for enriching human interaction with digital products
and services -- including technology, business, entertainment and
digital art.
MIDI conference is a small-scale event, with attendance limited up to
about 60 participants, in order to stimulate high-quality, lively
discussions and provide conditions for establishing memorable personal
contacts.
*** TOPICS OF INTEREST
MIDI Conference invites submissions on all topics related to
cross-disciplinary, innovative design of interactions between humans and
digital products of any type hardware, software, services, games and
art.
We welcome submissions that include any of the following topics:
INTERACTION DESIGN:
-- human-centred design practices, methods and tools, user interface
design, usability, accessibility, user-centred design of e-services,
Kansei engineering and User Experience
INTERACTIVE MULTIMEDIA and MULTIMODAL INTERACTION:
-- novel interaction techniques, voice interfaces, interactive
multimedia, Augmented/Virtual Reality, ubiquitous, multimodal, pervasive
and mobile interaction, wearable computing, new devices and sensors,
novel information visualization and presentation
INTERACTION in SERVICE DESIGN:
-- unfolding trends in HCI research and practice, user experience,
customer experience, Service Design, user participation and co-design of
interactive products and services
INNOVATION and CREATIVITY:
-- expanding novel forms of interaction through ideas, social networks,
technology, systems and tools for innovations in design, e-business and
e-services
-- new forms of collaboration, groupware, teamwork, management and
strategy in research and design organizations,
NOVEL HCI METHODOLOGIES:
-- understanding people and interactions: theory, concepts and methods,
contextual, ethnographical and field studies
-- application, critique and evolution of methods, processes, theories
and tools
LAST-MINUTE REPORTS and CASE STUDIES
-- work-in-progress and pilot studies, latest projects and industrial
cases.
On the crossroads of the areas listed above, MIDI Conference offers an
unique opportunity to bring together researchers and practitioners
working in diverse areas of interaction design ranging from IT systems
and services development to interactive games and media design for
business, advertisement, arts or entertainment.
*** VENUE and SOCIAL PROGRAMME
Warsaw, the capital of Poland, is a vibrant, modern city, remembering
its rich history: visitors' programme of the conference will offer
excellent opportunities to expand participants¹ experience with the
variety of attractions the city has to offer.
As MIDI conference gathers many young researchers eager for combining
professional discussions with fun and entertainment, we always offer a
very uncommon social event, aimed at sharing some kind of action-based
experience, both enjoyable and surprising for all the MIDI participants.
*** SUBMISSION and PUBLICATION
All submissions will be peer-reviewed by an international panel of
leading researchers:
-- accepted full papers (7-10 pages on ACM SIGCHI template) will be
accepted to the main conference proceedings, in cooperation with the
ACM, and will be published in the ACM Digital Library;
-- accepted short papers (work-in-progress, industrial experiences and
case studies) will be published by the PJWSTK as on-line proceedings
with an ISBN in Open Access under Creative Commons license and indexing
in Google Scholar and DBLP Computer Science Bibliography.
The papers should be submitted using the template downloadable from the
conference website.
