AUIC 2016

17thAustralasian User Interface Conference

2nd – 5th of February 2016

Australian National University (ANU), Canberra, Australia

Overview

The Australasian User Interface Conference (AUIC) is the forum for user interface researchers and practitioners at the Australasian Computer Science Week (ACSW 2016). AUIC provides an opportunity for workers in the areas of HCI, CSCW, and pervasive computing to meet with colleagues and with others in the broader computer science community.

For a summary of AUIC 2014, please see the Preface of the 2014 AUIC Proceedings.

Call for Papers

We welcome original full papers no longer than 10 pages or short papers no longer than 4 pages describing research or innovative practice, and demonstrations. AUIC invites participation and submissions from researchers and practitioners with an interest in techniques, tools, and technology for improving user interfaces over a wide range of areas, including the following:

  • User interface architectures, tools, techniques, and technologies, and their use in complex systems
  • Usability and evaluations
  • Innovative applications and user interfaces, e.g., AR/VR, multimedia, and adaptive interfaces
  • Distributed interfaces, including the World Wide Web
  • HCI education
  • Ambient and highly mobile devices, e.g., PDAs, wearable computers
  • CSCW, group work, groupware, and computer-mediated human communication
  • Novel visual and graphical user interfaces
  • Novel applications using vision-based interfaces, accelerometers, and gyroscopes

Submission Guidelines

Papers should be no more than 10 pages in length for full papers, or 4 pages in length for short papers. The authors should conform to the formatting instructions specified on the ACSW submission page.

Papers are submitted as PDF documents through the EasyChair conference management system (AUIC@ACSW 2016 Paper Submission). Each paper will be judged on its originality, significance, technical quality, relevance to AUIC, and presentation.

Please note that it is ACSW policy that at least one author of all accepted papers to the conferences and workshops in the series would both register and present at the event concerned. Failure to do so without a reason acceptable to the organisers of the event will result in the paper being retrospectively withdrawn from both the proceedings and all citation sources. It is also ACSW policy that all papers be original and not concurrently submitted elsewhere. Once again, we reserve the right to retrospectively withdraw a paper from the proceedings if we later find this not to be the case.
