> *ISWC'09 CALL FOR LATE BREAKING RESULTS*
> *DESIGN CONTEST, VIDEO PAPERS AND DEMOS*
>
> ISWC'09, the thirteenth annual IEEE International
> Symposium on
> Wearable Computers, is the premier forum for
> wearable computing
> and issues related to
> on-body and worn mobile technologies.
> ISWC'09 will bring together
> researchers, product vendors,
> fashion designers, textile
> manufacturers, users, and related
> professionals to share information and
> advances in wearable
> computing. ISWC'09 explicitly
> aims to broaden its scope to
> include cell phones and cell phone
> applications as they have
> become the most successful wearable computer to
> date.
>
> ISWC'09 invites to submit original work
> in one or more of the
> following formats: full papers, notes,
> posters, late breaking
> results, demonstrations, videos,
> tutorials and workshops. As
> already successfully performed in the past,
> this year's ISWC
> also invites for
> a contest of wearable system
> designs,
> encouraging academic and
> industrial design, media and art
> authorities to submit conceptual work in a creative,
> inspiring,
> innovative and future oriented style.
>
> For first time, ISWC'09 will publish adjunct
> proceedings which
> will include the late
> breaking results, video papers,
> demonstrations, design papers of selected
> workshops.
>
>
>
> *SUBMISSIONS*
>
> *Late Breaking Results*
> This submission format aims at
> presenting very topical issues
> and late breaking application oriented results in
> all areas of
> wearable computing. Just
> like regular papers, late breaking
> results should present directing
> research, but in a very
> focused and compact format.
> Late breaking results are not
> understood as short papers condensed into less page
> space, but
> are intended to present
> pointed results at a high level of
> technicality. LBR submissions
> can gain from an "extended
> submission deadline" (June 3, 2009), and should be
> formatted in
> Springer LNCS single column format, not
> exceeding 8 pages).
> They will undergo a scientific reviewing process
> managed by the
> LBR program committee under
> the steering of the LBR chair.
> Accepted LBRs will be presented at the conference,
> and will be
> published in the "Advances in Wearable
> Computing" book of the
> OCG
> (adjunct proceedings), accompanying the conference
> proceedings.
>
> *Video Papers*
> Submissions (deadline June 3, 2009)
> are invited to present
> novel wearable computing systems, devices or
> just designs, or
> demonstrate innovative styles of
> interaction or usability of
> those systems - in a lively
> format: as a video. Video clips
> should be no longer than 8 minutes and
> be accompanied by a 4
> page (or approx. 2000 words)
> written summary. Video paper
> submissions should be formatted in Springer
> LNCS single column
> format, and not exceeding 4 pages). Accepted
> video papers will
> be published in the "Advances in
> Wearable Computing" book of
> the
> OCG, accompanying the
> conference proceedings. The
> author(s) of a
> video are expected to present
> a brief
> introduction at the conference, while all full
> videos will be
> presented during the ISWC'09 night show
> - a special event in
> the frame of the 30th
> anniversary of the Ars Electronica
> Festival. Video papers will
> be published in the ISWC'09
> adjunct proceedings, all video clips will be
> presented in the
> ISWC'09 Video DVD.
>
> *Reviewing Process for Papers, Notes, Posters, LBRs
> and Videos*
> ISWC'09 will adopt a
> double-blind process for full papers,
> notes and posters - as well as for late
> breaking results and
> video papers. Authors' names and their affiliations
> must not be
> revealed or mentioned anywhere in the
> submission. Please refer
> to the paper submission
> link at the
> conference website
> (www.iswc.net). Questions about the
> papers, notes and posters
> should be directed to progchair at iswc.net,
> about late breaking
> results submissions to lbrchair at iswc.net,
> and about video
> papers to videochair at iswc.net.
>
> *Demos*
>
> Demonstrations provide an opportunity
> to show research
> prototypes and works-in-progress to colleagues for
> comment in a
> relaxed atmosphere. Both independent
> demonstrations and those
>
> accompanying accepted papers and posters
> are welcome.
> Demonstrations will not be published in
> the main conference
> proceedings, but will be included in the
> adjunct proceedings.
> Accommodations (power, space,
> etc...) will be limited, so
> participants should plan to be
> mobile and self-supported. To
> apply to perform a demonstration, please submit (i)
> a one-page
> summary that describes what you plan to
> demonstrate, including
> a 200 word abstract (ii) a photo or diagram to
> be included in
> the demonstration handout alongside the
> abstract (minimum size
> 640 x 480 pixels), and (iii)
> to demonstrations at iswc.net
> by
> Monday, July 13, 2009. Only the
> abstract will be included in
> the "Advances in Wearable Computing" book (adjunct
> proceedings),
> the rest of the summary will be used to judge
> the quality of
> the submission.
>
> *Design Contest*
> Participating at the ISWC design contest is a great
> opportunity
> to showcase your product
> or prototype to the leaders in
> wearable computing. The design contest will
> take place during
> the conference banquet dinner on Sunday,
> September 6, 2009 and
> can be used to demonstrate your "smart
> gadgets" (plan to be
> mobile and self-supported).
> Contributions are encouraged from
> all areas of wearable computing, from technologies
> to textiles,
> from potential employers to product vendors. Please
> submit your
> proposals (a one-page
> summary describing your prototype,
>
> including a 200
> word
> abstract and photos/videos) to
> designcontest at iswc.net
> at the latest by Wednesday June 3, 2009.
> Direct
> questions related to the Design Contest to
> designcontest at iswc.net.
>
> *Tutorials and Workshops*
> Workshop proposals should be submitted in PDF format
> via E-mail
> to workshops at iswc.net
> by February 1, 2009. The workshops will
> provide a forum to
> discuss topical aspects
> of wearable
> computing in focus groups. State of the
> art tutorials will be
> presented by
> experienced, distinguished presenters. The
> workshops and tutorials will take place on
> Friday, September 4
> 2009 (a day before the main conference).

> reality fields, an
> opportunity to present their ideas and
> research plans in an international, agile and
> renowned audience
> of junior and senior researchers and developers in
> the wearable
> computing field. Thesis position papers (5 pages
> including all

> statement, methodological approach,
> potential for innovation
>
> and expected contribution
> to the international wearable
> computing literature. Accepted submissions
