In summary, in our Dagstuhl Seminar we want to approach and explore the concept of learning from different angles. Besides considering technological developments, the seminar equally addresses aspects of data and model understanding, transdisciplinary methodology and applications, science communication, and education.

Extended Reality (XR), including Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR), technologies are on the cusp of becoming mainstream. In 2019, about 6 million VR and AR headsets were shipped worldwide, with an estimated 16.5 million headsets in use in 2021, and predictions of over 50 million by 2026. By some estimates, this represents a $1 trillion market. Ideally, these technologies would be accessible to all who desire to use them; however, today, XR technologies are not accessible to millions of people with disabilities or impairments (visual, motor, cognitive), with incompatible physical characteristics (e.g., hairstyles and head shapes), with health conditions, and beyond. This includes children and the growing group of elderly people. In particular, the low accessibility of these technologies today hinders their widespread adoption worldwide, especially in the educational systems (learning, training), in industry (training, assistance), and in health care (rehabilitation, therapy, telemedicine). Thus, this Dagstuhl Seminar will address an urgent need in the field to ensure that all individuals can benefit from the applications that XR offers.

UIST (ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology) is the premier forum for innovations in the software and technology of human-computer interfaces. Sponsored by ACM's special interest groups on computer-human interaction (SIGCHI) and computer graphics (SIGGRAPH), UIST brings together researchers and practitioners from diverse areas that include traditional graphical & web user interfaces, tangible & ubiquitous computing, virtual & augmented reality, multimedia, new input & output devices, and CSCW. The intimate size, the single track, and comfortable surroundings make this symposium an ideal opportunity to exchange research results and implementation experiences.

Die relevanten nationalen Spiegelgremien für SC 36 und SC 29 bestehen bereits bei DIN. Das möglicherweise wichtigste Gremium für internationale Normung zu den IT-Grundlagen von Metaverse und XR, das SC 24, wird derzeit nicht national gespiegelt. Zudem beschäftigen sich die nationalen Spiegelgremien des SC 36 und SC 29 nicht primär mit metaverse- oder XR-relevanten Themen. Um dem bestehenden und entstehenden Bedarfen gerecht zu werden, wird das Gremium „Metaverse und Extended Reality“ dem Normenausschuss Informationstechnik und Anwendungen (NIA bzw. NA 043) zugeordnet und soll sich vorrangig mit der Spiegelarbeit des ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 24 befassen und metaverse- und XR-relevante Themen berücksichtigen.

ACM Multimedia is the worldwide premier multimedia conference and a key event to display scientific achievements and innovative industrial products. The Conference offers to scientists and practitioners a range of plenary scientific and technical sessions, tutorials, panels and discussion meetings on relevant and challenging questions on the horizon of multimedia. The Interactive Art program provides the opportunity of interaction between artists and computer scientists and investigation on the application of multimedia technologies to art and cultural heritage.

The ACM Multimedia Asia, puts together the long-lasting experience of former PCM and ICIMCS, which both have good history as well as attending experiences. It is a newly established international conference to showcase the scientific achievements and industrial innovations in the multimedia field. Its mission is to illuminate the state of the art in multimedia computing by bringing together researchers and practitioners in this field. ACM Multimedia Asia 2024, for the first time to bring the multimedia community to the most eastern country in the southern hemisphere, invites submission of research papers presenting novel theoretical and algorithmic solutions addressing problems across the domain of multimedia and related applications.

In our daily lives, we as humans perceive our surroundings in an inherently multimodal way. Nevertheless, the vast majority of data analysis idioms are exclusively visual, not using the apparent potential of combined designs. While the visualization field studies visual data analysis solutions, the sonification field investigates comparable solutions that convey data over non-speech audio. There are several similarities between the methods and design theories of both approaches, such as the use of perceptual variables to encode data attributes, the use of marks and substrates for conveying items, and the role of interaction in manipulating the data representations. Over the recent decades, both fields have established research communities, theoretical frameworks, and toolkit support.

"The world is flat and rectangular", at least when it comes to the types of physical screens that we use for representing data and making decisions. The physical screens that we consider when creating visualizations for representing data, making decisions with this data, and learning about our environment, are predominantly flat and rectangular: our mobile phones and tablets, desktops, or even large wall or table displays. Nevertheless, technology is already evolving quickly: curved, bendable, and highly flexible displays, spherical displays, cubed displays, and even drone-based displays have emerged and are commercially available. These novel types of displays offer new ways to represent and explore data embedded in everyday environments, to communicate and share it.

This Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop endeavors to bridge this gap, aiming to craft a forward-looking roadmap for both academic and industrial stakeholders in gaming. The focal point is to align gaming's colossal presence with societal expectations, informed by policy frameworks. The workshop will be anchored in a cross-disciplinary approach reflecting the games research domain, to forge actionable strategies. Through working groups, participants will delve into specific topics and build strategies aimed at guiding future work in the domain across academia, industry and policy. The aim is to provide a manifesto and roadmaps rooted in reality-based practice, propelling a constructive discourse on harnessing gaming's potential for positive societal impact

Computational geometry is concerned with the design, analysis, and implementation of algorithms for geometric and topological problems, which arise naturally in a wide range of areas, including computer graphics, CAD, robotics, computer vision, image processing, spatial databases, GIS, molecular biology, sensor networks, machine learning, data mining, scientific computing, theoretical computer science, and pure mathematics. Computational geometry is a vibrant and mature field of research, with several dedicated international conferences and journals and strong intellectual connections with other computing and mathematics disciplines. The emphasis of the Dagstuhl Seminar is on presenting recent developments in computational geometry, as well as identifying new challenges, opportunities, and connections to other fields of computing.
