*** First Call for Demos and Posters ***

22nd ACM International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces
IUI 2017

St. Raphael Resort, Limassol, Cyprus

March 13-16, 2017

http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=ZG1hbmV0CQkJZG1hbmV0QHpwci51bmkta29lbG4uZGUJMjJuZCBBQ00gSW50ZXJuYXRpb25hbCBDb25mZXJlbmNlIG9uIEludGVsbGlnZW50IFVzZXIgSW50ZXJmYWNlcyAoSVVJIDIwMTcpOiBGaXJzdCBDYWxsIGZvciBEZW1vcyBhbmQgUG9zdGVycwk4MwlMaXN0cwkyNDcJY2xpY2sJeWVzCW5v&url=http%3A%2F%2Fiui.acm.org%2F2017%2Fdemopost.html


ACM IUI 2017 is the 22nd annual meeting of the intelligent interfaces
community and serves as a premier international forum for reporting
outstanding research and development on intelligent user interfaces.

The 22nd edition of the conference will be held in Limassol, Cyprus.
Limassol (or Lemesos) is a multicultural bustling town, flanked by two
ancient cities, Amathus and Kourion, and guarded by the Amathusian
Aphrodite and Appolo Hylates. It is a town of great visual diversity and
contrast from spectacular seafront views, historic places like the mediaeval
Castle, and Byzantine churches. Along the 17 km long sandy beaches, two
Marinas, world renowned 5 star hotels, and a most exciting dining, shopping,
nightlife and yachting scene create a year-round vibrant lifestyle well beyond
the expectations of a Mediterranean island.

ACM IUI is where the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) community meets
the Artificial Intelligence (AI), with contributions from related fields such as
psychology, behavioral science, cognitive science, computer graphics, design
or the arts. Our focus is to improve the interaction between humans and
machines, by leveraging both more traditional HCI approaches, as well as
solutions that involve state-of-the art AI techniques such as machine
learning, natural language processing, data mining, knowledge
representation and reasoning. ACM IUI welcomes contribution from any
relevant arena: academia, business, or non-profit organizations.


Posters

Posters provide an opportunity for sharing valuable ideas, eliciting useful
feedback on early-stage work and fostering discussions and collaborations
among colleagues. We invite submissions on all topics of the conference. All
submissions should convey a scientific result or work in progress that is not
yet ready to be published as a full length research paper at a refereed
conference. Submitting a draft poster along with your submission is not
required but highly recommended. The page limit for poster papers is 4
pages (including references). Accepted poster papers will appear in the
companion proceedings in the ACM Digital Library.


Demos

The demonstrations track complements the overall program of the
conference. Demonstrations show implementations of novel, interesting,
and important intelligent user interface concepts or systems. We invite
submissions relevant to intelligent user interfaces and which address, but
are not limited to, the topics of the conference. All submissions are intended
to convey a scientific result or work in progress and should not be
advertisements for commercial software packages. The page limit for demo
papers is 4 pages (including references). Accepted demo papers will be
published in the companion proceedings in the ACM Digital Library.

2017 Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO 2017)
July, 2017, Berlin, Germany
http://gecco-2017.sigevo.org/

Important Dates:

Tutorials, Workshops and Competitions Proposals: November 7, 2016
Conference [tentative]: 15-19 July, 2017

*** Call for Tutorials ***

Deadline for tutorial proposals: November 7, 2016
Tutorial acceptance decision: TBA

Tutorials at GECCO 2017 will be presented by domain experts to cover
current topics relevant to evolutionary computation researchers and
practitioners. Each tutorial will be 110 minutes long. We encourage the
inclusion of interactive activities and demos.

Tutorials will be free to all GECCO 2017 attendees. It is expected that
all the instructors involved in an accepted tutorial will attend the
conference. One instructor/presenter of each accepted tutorial will be
able to register for GECCO at half the regular rate. (The discount can
be divided among tutorial instructors if there are more than one. Each
presenter is eligible for only a single tutorial discount, i.e., it is
not possible to aggregate discounts from more tutorials).

Accepted tutorials' slide sets will be collected by Sheridan/ACM Press,
and published as part of a companion volume to the conference
proceedings in the ACM Digital library.

* Submission Process *

Each tutorial proposal should include:

1. A half-page extended abstract (in plain text) that includes: the
title of the tutorial, the name and affiliation of the instructor(s),
and a description of the tutorial scope and content.
2. Short bio of the instructor(s) (about half page in plain text).
3. [Highly encouraged] A description of any interactive activity or demo
planned within the tutorial presentation.

* Reviewing *

Tutorial proposals will be reviewed by the GECCO 2017 organising
committee, based on the GECCO attendees' likely interest in them, the
breadth and depth of the topic(s), and the expertise and credentials of
the instructor(s).

* Information and Submissions *

Submit the tutorial proposals to:

Petr Posik, GECCO 2017 Tutorials Chair
Czech Technical University, Prague, Czech Republic
Email: petr.posik (at) fel.cvut.cz

*** Call for Workshops ***

GECCO workshops provide the possibility to commonly develop visions and
exchange ideas in an informal setting, especially if focused on an
emerging research field or interdisciplinary research area. In contrast
to regular sessions, workshops can (and should) host interactive
sessions (posters, discussions, demonstrations, etc.). Attendance at the
workshops will be free to all GECCO attendees.

Workshop organisers are responsible for coordination and publicity. They
collect and review papers, and provide a list of accepted papers and
their authors, if applicable. If required, the GECCO organisers may
provide additional support to the workshop organisers, such as
publicity. Note that organisers, participants and presenters must
register for the conference. Accepted workshop papers will be collected
by Sheridan/ACM Press, and published in a companion volume to the
conference proceedings.

* Submission Process *

Each workshop proposal needs to include:

1. A half-page extended abstract (in plain text) that includes: the
workshop title, the name and affiliation of the organiser(s), and a
description of scope and content. Please refrain from using special
characters in the title.
2. Short bio of the organiser(s) (about half-page in plain text).
3. [Highly encouraged] A description of any interactive activity or demo
planned within the workshop.
4. A draft schedule of the workshop, including the estimated duration (1
to max 4 sessions) and type of sessions.
5. If this workshop (or a similar event coordinated by the same
organisers or a subset of them) has taken place in previous years,
either at GECCO or at other events, then include URLs to the event pages.

* Reviewing of Proposals *

Workshop proposals will be reviewed by the GECCO 2017 organising
committee, based on GECCO attendees' likely interest, the breadth and
the depth of the topic(s), and the expertise and credentials of the
organiser(s).

* Information and Proposal Submissions *

*** Call for Competitions ***

Competitions demonstrate how Evolutionary Computation and related
techniques can be utilized in challenging practical, real-world and
gaming settings. They also enable fair comparisons between algorithms
and (for recurrent competitions) provide the possibility to follow the
development of approaches over time.

* Submission process *

Each competition proposal should include:

1. A half-page abstract (plain text) that includes: competition title,
the name and affiliation of the organiser(s), a description of the
competition, and web address of last edition if already held before.
