22nd ACM International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces
IUI 2017

St. Raphael Resort, Limassol, Cyprus

March 13-16, 2017

http://iui.acm.org/2017

Overview

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.

IUI 2017 is pleased to invite tutorial proposals. Tutorials offer the community
an opportunity to learn about the state-of-the-art concepts and techniques
and allow the presenters to share their expertise. We invite proposals from
active researchers and experienced presenters. Ideally, a tutorial will cover
the state-of-the-art research and development in a specific area strongly
related to IUI. Tutorials on interdisciplinary areas, novel or fast growing
directions, and significant practical applications are also encouraged.

Each accepted tutorial will receive one free IUI 2017 registration.

Submission Guidelines

The proposals should be PDF documents not exceeding 3 pages, submitted
by e-mail to the tutorial chairs at: tutorial2017@iui.acm.org.

We encourage prospective presenters to contact the tutorial chairs in
advance and discuss their tutorial ideas. Each tutorial proposal should
provide the following information:

· Name and title: Your name, the tutorial title and the expected length of
your tutorial (up to half a day).

· Description of tutorial topic and goal: Detailed outline of the tutorial,
along with descriptions of the objectives, its relevance to IUI, benefits
to the attendees, and course materials/handouts (links to online
materials encouraged).

· Organizers: Name, email address, and affiliation of each presenter. Note
that each listed presenter must register for the conference and be
present at the tutorial.

· Target audience and prerequisites: Target audience level (introductory,
intermediate, advanced) and prerequisite knowledge or skills.

· Experience: Tutors’ short bios and their expertise related to the tutorial,
including history of previously given tutorials.

· Equipment and software requirement: please list any that will be needed.

Important Dates
