Posters and Demos
The presentation of posters and demos is a key element of the ECSCW conference. For presenters as well as recipients, the poster & demo session provides a lively environment for getting in touch with late-breaking research, preliminary results, innovative ideas, and early-stage research. At a special session during the conference, authors are given the opportunity to showcase their research to interested delegates, as well as involving them in discussions about their work, exchanging ideas, providing feedback, and sharing work-in-progress relating to CSCW.
Posters provide a great opportunity for visually presenting research results and ideas to conference visitors.
Demos may be submitted in various forms: These may be research prototypes or commercial products, but we also strongly invite low-fi prototypes, such as paper mock-ups etc. In addition, the demo session will provide space for exhibiting innovative materials that have been developed in the context of the deployment of (user-centered) research methods – for example, innovations in story boards, personas, and other materials that foster creativity in the design process.
The submissions for Demos and Posters should be related to the main topics of interest of ECSCW 2020.
Submission Information
Both submission categories (posters and demos) require the submission of a short paper (four pages maximum including references, figures, and a 150-word max. abstract). The paper should explicitly state the contribution and originality of the work, making it clear how it differs from significant prior work. A full literature review is not required.
For the demo submission, the University of Siegen is happy to provide support for setting up the demo. Please specify the exhibition requirements in a separate document (e.g., power requirements (V), dimensions and footprint of exhibit (cm), lighting conditions, etc.). University of Siegen will provide the usual equipment (power strip (220V), WiFi, table, screen, poster board), and is happy to organize further equipment if needed (e.g., projector).
Submissions should include author names and follow the exploratory papers template (available as Latex, RTF or MS Word). Please hand in your submission on EasyChair.
