CALLS FOR PAPERS

We invite you to submit papers to Chinese CHI 2016. Papers in all areas of human-computer interaction are invited and will be assessed on their contribution to the field. Papers must present original materials and will be reviewed rigorously by expert reviewers.  All accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings and published through the ACM Digital Library. Authors are invited to submit high-quality original work to advance the field.

Chinese CHI 2016 especially encourages submissions that contribute to HCI research and design related to Chinese individuals and communities. Examples include but are not limited to user research that provides a deeper understanding of Chinese users or cultural differences, interaction design and techniques based on behavioral characteristics or knowledge of Chinese individuals, or simply regular HCI research with a more focused discussion that reveals implications for Chinese HCI.

Important Dates
Submission Due   Jan 6, 2016 PDT
Review Due   Feb 6, 2016 PDT
Paper Notification     Feb 15, 2016  PDT

Submission Guidelines
Format
Papers must be in the two-column ACM SIGCHI format. They must be anonymized and in PDF file format. Length must match the contribution, and the same general criteria hold for all papers.

Papers must be at least 4 pages, but can be up to 10 pages. Paper length must be based on the weight of the contribution. A new idea presented in a compact format is more likely to be accepted than the same idea in a long format. Long papers need to include very strong contributions to warrant acceptance. Shorter, more focused papers are also highly encouraged.

All work – both papers and optional video illustrations – must be submitted electronically via the conference submission system (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=chinesechi2016)

Chinese CHI 2016 will also have a separate poster submission category. Formatting requirements for posters will be specified in the call for posters that will be announced separately.

Language
Chinese CHI 2016 accepts papers in English only. Chinese CHI 2016 also accepts poster submissions in Chinese and English as a separate submission category. See the call for posters for details.
