[AISWorld] Call for Mini-Track Proposals for Human Computer Interaction Track at AMCIS 2014‏

[Khawaja Asjad Saeed]

Call for HCI Mini-Track Proposals for AMCIS 2014 (Deadline: November 4, 2013)  AMCIS 2014 Human Computer Interaction (HCI) Track, Sponsored by SIGHCI  We formally invite information systems (IS) scholars interested in HCI-related research to propose mini-tracks for the upcoming AMCIS 2014 at Savannah, Georgia (August 7-10). http://amcis2014.aisnet.org/index.php/track-list/77-amcis-2014/98 The AMCIS 2014 HCI Track will provide a forum for AIS members to present, discuss, and explore a wide range of issues related to HCI and IS. These issues include the history, foundation disciplines, theories, practice, methodologies and techniques, new developments, and applications concerning the interaction between humans, information, information systems, and technology. In an effort to bridge academia and industry, papers may range from formal research studies to those based on experiences, real-world observations, and expert opinion. The Track is open to all types of quantitative and qualitative research methodologies (including conceptualization, theorization, case study, action research, experimentation, field study, survey, and simulation). We also welcome visionary articles, interactive demonstrations, and research in progress papers.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:•	Aesthetic and affective computing•	Application of neuroscientific approaches to understanding human/technology interaction•	Behavioral, cognitive, motivational, and affective aspects of human/technology interaction•	Design considerations for IT security and privacy management•	Design implications of diversity in users, technologies, and environments including but not limited to the elderly, the young, and special needs populations•	Design implications of online user behaviors •	Design, evaluation, and implications of social networking applications•	Development and applications of multi‐dimensional information visualizations•	Digital documents/genres and human information seeking behavior •	Human‐centeredness and user‐centeredness in technology development and technology use•	Impact of interfaces/information technology on attitudes, behavior, performance, perception, learning, and productivity•	Interface design methodologies •	Interface designs on new platforms such as mobile and ubiquitous technologies•	Interface design, evaluation, and impacts•	New HCI techniques and technologies•	Personalization and adaptive interfaces •	Psychological and social aspects of human interaction with technology, including trust, negative cognitions, etc. •	Usability engineering; metrics and methods for user interface assessment and evaluation •	Usability studies for end‐user computing in work or non‐work environment, especially in the Internet era •	User interface design and evaluations for emerging application areas such as M‐commerce, electronic collaboration and negotiation systems, pervasive computing, and virtual worlds•	User task analysis and modeling; fit between navigation scheme and task types•	Virtual world and 3‐D web •	Website design and evaluation 
The following is a list of HCI mini-tracks that were successfully conducted at AMCIS 2013 in Chicago, along with names and emails of the mini-track co-chairs. We would like to repeat these mini-tracks. If your interests are in line with these mini-tracks, please contact the previous mini-track co-chairs to express your interest in helping out with a mini-track this year. There is often a need for multiple chairs on any mini-track, and sometimes people do not have time to run the same mini-track again.  1.

7. Personalization Technologies and ImpactsHong Sheng, hsheng at mst.eduDezhi Wu, dezhi.wu at gmail.comII Im, il.im at yonsei.ac.kr
Mini-tracks are not limited to those previously conducted and we welcome new, exciting, and innovative mini-track proposals for the HCI Track. The proposal for a new mini-track should be typically about 1-2 pages. It should include a brief description of the mini track and how it would contribute towards advancing HCI research in MIS. 
Information Needed for SubmissionBe prepared to enter a) information about minitrack chairs; b) affiliated track for the proposed minitrack and minitrack title; c) 150 word description of the minitrack for the website; and d) proposed call for papers for your minitrack. Mini-track proposals can be submitted athttp://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/amcis2014, login and select the appropriate track.
Important Dates:November 4, 2013: Submit minitrack proposals January 4, 2014: Manuscript submissions for AMCIS 2014 begin
Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you for helping to make next year's AMCIS HCI Track a success! Best regards,
