Workshops

We invite researchers and practitioners working in the field of interactive
surfaces and spaces to submit workshop proposals for ISS 2020. ISS
Workshops provide a unique opportunity to discuss ideas, challenges and new
work around more specific topics in the area of interactive spaces and
surfaces.

We welcome proposals from a large variety of topics and domains. Example
topics include but are not limited to:

   -

   Architectural concepts and emerging trends
   -

   Immersive analytics and data physicalization
   -

   Museum and art installation trends
   -

   Interaction paradigms around large surfaces (tangibles, pen+touch, etc.)
   -

   New and emerging body and space sensing technologies
   -

   Overview of social protocols, presence, territoriality, and proxemics
   -

   Evaluation methods for surface applications
   -

   Multi-touch interaction with mobile devices
   -

   Feel, taste, smell and splash user interfaces on surfaces
   -

   ... and other exciting topics!


All workshops will take place on November 8, 2020 and will run for either
half a day or the full day.

Workshops can be open (free to anyone who registered for it) or closed
(attendees need to submit position papers). Please indicate the length and
type of workshop in your proposal (see below). Accepted workshop proposals
will be part of the ISS conference proceedings and available in the ACM
Digital Library.

Responsibilities of Workshop Organizers

Workshop organizers are expected to organize and facilitate all proposed
workshop activities. We suggest the page limit for workshop papers to be
4–6 pages excluding references using the single-column ACM Master Article
Submission Template
<https://www.acm.org/publications/taps/word-template-workflow>, but it is
up to the organizers to make this decision. Due to the very tight schedule,
we unfortunately cannot include the contributions of workshop participants
into the official conference proceedings and the ACM Digital Library.

Workshop organizers will be asked to:

   -

   Organize and manage the review of submitted workshop papers (e.g.
   through a reviewing system such as EasyChair)
   -

   Set a workshop position paper submission deadline (on or before October
   2, 2020) and an author notification date (on or before October 19).
   -

   We will provide workshop organizers a special code for early bird
   registration that they can give to authors in the acceptance notification.
