ICPEC – Call For Papers

Posted on by

icon-isepcComputer programming is a fascinating area, but at the same time, complex. In the teaching-learning process, teachers face many difficulties to find techniques and methodologies to facilitate the learning of programming languages and to foster problem-solving skills. At the same time, students find it difficult to understand the subjects and do not feel motivated to continue pursuing their studies and get good grades.

ICPEC aims to be a space frequented by teachers and researchers to discuss topics that promote new methodologies, best practices, trends, techniques and tools to improve the teaching-learning process of computer programming.

Rome, Italy, 13-15 November, 2019

The European Conference on Ambient Intelligence is the prime venue for research on Ambient Intelligence, with an international and interdisciplinary character. It brings together researchers and practitioners from the fields of science, engineering, and, design working towards the vision of Ambient Intelligence. AmI 2019 builds on the success of thirteen predecessor conferences, which started in 2003 with the EUSAI-event in Veldhoven, The Netherlands. More information about the AmI series can be found here: http://ami-conferences.org

Ambient intelligence refers to normal working and living environments being surrounded by embedded devices that can merge unobtrusively and in natural ways using information and intelligence hidden in the network connecting these devices (e.g. The Internet of Things). Such devices, each specialised in one or more capabilities, are intended to work together based on an infrastructure of intelligent systems, to provide a variety of services improving safety, security and the quality of life in ordinary living, travelling and working environments.

AmI2019 will provide a meeting point for each of these communities, aiming for intensive networking and scientific debate, and shaping visions of the future.

This year’s event focus topic is “Data-driven Ambient Intelligence” that follows the vision of Calm Technology, where technology is useful but does not demand our full attention or interfere with our usual behavior and activities.

The Proceedings of AmI2019 will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series.

Best Paper Award: 1,000 EUR, sponsored by Springer.

INTETAIN 2017 – CALL FOR PAPERS

Posted on by

INTETAIN_2017PLUGGY is calling for papers for the 1st International Workshop “Plug into Cultural Heritage”

PLUGGY is organizing the Workshop “Plug into Cultural Heritage” as part of the 9th International Conference on Intelligent Technologies for Interactive Entertainment – INTETAIN 2017 that will be held in June 20–22, 2017 in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal.

About the workshop:

What is cultural heritage? How can society become more actively involved in cultural heritage activities, not only as an observer but also as a contributor to the definition of heritage? Cultural heritage is considered an important precondition for genuine sustainability. However, existing applications for heritage dissemination do not really create heritage communities. Adequate ICT tools are necessary to support citizens in their everyday activities in shaping cultural heritage and be shaped by it. Social platforms offer potential to build such networks, but can be further exploited for heritage promotion. Technology could help better in providing a seamless integration of cultural heritage in people’s everyday life.

The Workshop “Plug into Cultural Heritage” aims to bridge this gap by exploring on necessary tools and challenges to allow citizens to share and obtain local heritage knowledge.

We invite contributions relevant to cultural heritage (tangible, intangible and natural) such as literature studies, user studies, design concepts and position papers. Topics include but are not limited to:

  • Technology design and evaluations incl. augmented and visual reality, collaborative games, locative multimedia and mobile HCI in general;
  • Opportunities and challenges for community involvement incl. special interest groups such as the elderly and migrant communities;
  • The role of current social media in cultural heritage awareness.

Important dates:

Paper Submission deadline: 14 April 2017
Notification: 5 May 2017
Camera-ready deadline: 22 May 2017
Start of Conference: 20 June 2017
