HCII 2011: Presentation for late breaking news *NEW*

If you would like to present the latest results of your work to an international audience of about 2000 from more than 70 countries, you still have the opportunity to do so. You can submit a proposal for a poster presentation (an abstract of 300 words) through the CMS. If your proposal is accepted, you have to register for the Conference by 1 July 2011, so that your poster is scheduled for presentation in the posters area of the conference.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Presentation of a late breaking news poster is conditional upon a unique registration of an author per poster by 1 July 2011. These poster presentations can not be included in the Conference Proceedings. They will be included in the on-line version of the program and the PDF version which will be made available for download after the conference. Depending on the date of the submission, they may also be included in the printed final program of the conference.
