International Workshop on Ubiquitous and Collaborative Computing (iUBICOM)

13 July 2015 in Lincoln, UK
In conjunction with the 2015 British Human Computer Interaction Conference

Following seven successful previous iUBICOM (International workshop on Ubiquitous and Collaborative Computing) workshops, we present the 8^th iUBICOM workshop. Our theme for this year’s workshop is “Personalised Information Modelling and Retrieval”. The rapid proliferation of data through various sources such as the Web, ubiquitous and embedded devices, presents individuals and organisations with huge amounts of stored and collected information to process and make sense of in different ways. This raises several challenges for real world data dependent applications in the way information is gathered, modelled, and retrieved to gain value and insight from the data. This workshop will bring multi-disciplinary researchers together to discuss models and theories to develop novel personalised intelligent information modelling and retrieval systems which can identify meaning, context, and patterns in data providing mechanisms to retrieve and present relevant information to end users.… read more. “Call: International Workshop on Ubiquitous and Collaborative Computing (iUBICOM)”

The First International Workshop on ENgagement in HumaN Computer IntEraction (ENHANCE 2015)

@ the 6th Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction (ACII 2015)
http://www.acii2015.org/index.html

SCOPE

Research in the field of Human-Computer Interaction is taking an ascending curve in the conception of machines, like robots or virtual agents, endowed with social and emotional intelligence. Conceiving social robots or agents means that they should be able to interact naturally with humans. Thus, they should be equipped with capabilities that enable them to understand the user’s actions, behaviours, and mental and emotional states just like a human naturally does. Engagement is an important aspect to be considered in the design of such machines. However, despite the growing number of papers on it, rigorous definitions of engagement compatible with computational models are still needed.

The ENHANCE workshop focuses on engagement modeling and recognition.… read more. “Call: First International Workshop on ENgagement in HumaN Computer IntEraction (ENHANCE 2015)”

Abstract submission (compulsory): 15 May 2015

OVERVIEW AND TOPICS

Created intentionally or spontaneously, cyberworlds are information spaces and communities that immensely augment the way we interact, participate in business and receive information throughout the world. Cyberworlds seriously impact our lives and the evolution of the world economy by taking such forms as social networking services, 3D shared virtual communities and massively multiplayer online role-playing games.

The topics covered by Cyberworlds 2015 will include but are not limited to:

• Networked and shared virtual worlds
• Virtual collaborative spaces
• Shape modeling for cyberworlds
• Virtual humans and avatars
• Multimodal interaction and rendering
• Computer vision for augmented and mixed reality
• Cognitive informatics
• Brain-computer interfaces
• Affective computing
• Social computing
• Online communities
• E-learning in cyberworlds
• Multi-user web games
• Art and heritage in cyberspace, cyber-museums
• Cyberethics and cyberlaws
• Cybersecurity
• Welfare in cyberworlds
• Data mining and warehousing in cyberworlds
• Visual analytics in cyberworlds

VENUE

The conference will be held in Sweden in the Hanseatic city of Visby on the island of Gotland.… read more. “Call: Cyberworlds 2015”

ICIDS 2015
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTERACTIVE DIGITAL STORYTELLING
Nov. 30 – Dec. 4, 2015.
Aalborg University, Copenhagen, Denmark

View this call online at: http://icids2015.aau.dk

SUBMISSION DEADLINE: JUNE 19th, 2015

This year, the International Conference on Interactive Digital Storytelling (ICIDS 8) will take place in Denmark at Aalborg University’s campus in central Copenhagen.

ICIDS has its origin in a series of related international conferences that ran between 2001 and 2007 (http://www.icids.org). Since 2008, ICIDS became the premier annual venue that gathers researchers, developers, practitioners and theorists to present and share the latest innovations, insights and techniques in the expanding field of interactive storytelling and the technologies that support it. The field re-groups a highly dynamic and interdisciplinary community, in which narrative studies, computer science, interactive and immersive technologies, the arts, and creativity converge to develop new expressive forms in a myriad of domains that include artistic projects, interactive documentaries, cinematic games, serious games, assistive technologies, edutainment, pedagogy, museum science, advertisement and entertainment, to mention a few.… read more. “Call: International Conference on Interactive Digital Storytelling (ICIDS 2015)”
