University of Texas at Arlington

The PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive Environments (PETRA) conference is a highly interdisciplinary conference that focuses on computational and engineering approaches to improve the quality of life and enhance human performance in a wide range of settings, in the workplace, at home, in public spaces, urban environments, and other. Outcomes of this conference have a broad impact in application areas that include, manufacturing, transportation, healthcare, energy systems, security and safety, robotics, biomedicine, environment and conservation, and many others. PETRA brings together very different types of technologies to also address important social and healthcare issues for sensitive populations, such as the elderly, persons suffering from chronic conditions such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Cerebral Palsy, and other disabilities or traumas.

PETRA (which means “stone” in Greek) addresses important human living needs. From a technological perspective, PETRA motivates and inspires new scientific thrusts, innovations and discoveries to improve living environments, a particularly important issue, in an increasingly crowded and complex world where the need for inclusiveness and connectivity with the rest of the world is key. For the elderly in particular, PETRA addresses the fact that, as people grow older; they will increasingly rely on technology to be able to prolong staying in their homes and enjoy an independent life.

Lake Como School of Advanced Studies

The summer school “User Interaction in Smart Environments” is devoted to PhD students and young researchers, who want to deepen their know-how on recent advances in smart spaces modeling and interaction, and identify new directions for their future research. Given the centrality of the covered themes for the Italian community of researchers working on HCI, the school is promoted by and organized in cooperation with SIGCHI Italy (http://sigchitaly.eu/it/informazioni-generali/), the Italian chapter of the ACM Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction. The proposers are chairs and members of this association.

The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences

The goal of the AI Institute on AI and Society is to bring together a diverse group of thoughtful individuals at different career stages to explore some of the most critical questions we face as a society around the development and use of Artificial Intelligence. Potential impacts of AI range from specific, near-term issues such as concerns related to transparency and accountability, algorithmic bias and equity, and liability for autonomous vehicles and other automated physical systems, to longer-term disruptions to employment, economic structure, government functioning and geopolitics. Our goal is to facilitate the production of impactful research outputs that cross disciplinary boundaries of mathematics, computer science, engineering, law, sociology, philosophy, history, and art.

Social Networks and Social Aspects of Information Technology,    Software Agents and Intelligent Agents in Artificial Intelligence

We plan to use the conference as a platform to further develop a collaborative community around human-computer interaction issues in speech and language technology, with a specific interest in theory-based and applied scientific issues in the field of speech and text-based conversational user interfaces.

Linguistics,    Natural Language Processing, Computational Linguistics

The Seventeenth Symposium on Usable Privacy and Security (SOUPS 2021) will take place August 8–10, 2021, at the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver in Vancouver, BC, Canada. SOUPS brings together an interdisciplinary group of researchers and practitioners in human-computer interaction, security, and privacy.

IFIP – International Federation for Information Processing

INTERACT is the International Conference promoted by the IFIP Technical Committee 13 on Human–Computer Interaction. INTERACT is held every two years. The theme of INTERACT 2021 “Sense, Feel, Design” highlights the new challenges of interaction design. Technology is today more and more widespread, pervasive and blended in the world we live in. On one side, devices that sense humans' activities have the potential to provide an enriched interaction. On the other side, the user experience can be further enhanced by exploiting multisensorial technologies. Not only the traditional human senses of vision and hearing, but also senses of touch, smell, and taste, as well as emotions are to be taken into account when designing for future interactions. INTERACT 2021 represents the right venue to debate such new challenges.

AVR Lab - University of Salento

Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)

IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC)

The IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC) is the premier international forum for research on this topic. Established in 1984, the mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling, and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people.

The 2021 symposium is scheduled to take place October 10-13 in St. Louis, Mo. Our special emphasis for 2021 is Interaction at a Distance. We are planning for a potentially hybrid conference with options to participate at a distance due to continued uncertainty around COVID-19. IEEE VL/HCC 2021 is 100% Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Multimedia Computing (TCMC).
