ACM Hypertext 2025 – Late Breaking and Blue SkiesThe Late
breaking and blue skies track welcomes submissions of original and
unpublished work that is at an early stage, and/or ideas that do not fit
the profile of a traditional Hypertext conference paper. For the topics
of interest, please refer to the scopes in the track of research
papers. All submissions must be written in English. Papers should be
submitted electronically, in a PDF format, through the EasyChair
submission system,
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ht25.

Late BreakingWe
encourage researchers and practitioners to use this track as a valuable
opportunity to receive useful feedback on early-stage work and foster
discussions and collaborations among colleagues. We look forward to
receiving:
- Innovative research plans and preliminary results;
- Descriptions
and/or evaluations of system prototypes addressing the theory and
practice of topics relevant to the hypertext community;
- Essays introducing recently started research projects or summarising project results.
FormatSubmissions
must be anonymous, given that ACM HT uses a double-blind review
process. Late breaking submissions should follow the same ACM
double-column format as the main research tracks, but papers should be
up to 4 pages with 1 additional page for references. Submissions will be
reviewed and based on those reviews may be accepted as either talks or
posters. Papers will be archived in the ACM Digital Library.
Blue SkiesWe
also invite submissions to a special “Blue Sky Ideas” track. The
emphasis of this track will be on visionary ideas, long term challenges,
and opportunities in research that are outside the current mainstream
topics of the field. We want to overcome the constraints of the
traditional review process by incubating innovative approaches, risky
and provocative ideas, and propose challenges and opportunities in the
near future. We are particularly excited about ideas that address the
conference theme of “The World as Hypertext.”
Submissions will be
judged on the extent to which they expand the possibilities and
horizons of the field or challenge existing assumptions prevalent in the
field.
FormatSubmissions must be anonymous, given
that ACM HT uses a double-blind review process. Submissions to this
track should follow the same ACM double-column format as submissions to
the main research tracks, but are limited to 4 pages, with 1 additional
page for references. Submissions will be reviewed by a dedicated panel
of senior researchers, and based on these reviews may be accepted as
talks at the conference. Papers will be archived in the ACM Digital
Library.
