:please distribute: :call for papers: workshop on Mathematical User Interfaces ---------------------------- 10th August, 2006, nr Oxford, UK at the Fifth Mathematical Knowledge Management Conference http://www.activemath.org/~paul/MathUI06/ SCOPE Building on the success and interest of the first MathUI workshop, this second one is intended to bring together researchers working on MKM but from the perspective of mathematics manipulated by end users. Accordingly, an emphasis is on providing users with interfaces and software systems that enhance their mathematical working experience. The topics of the workshop centre around, but are not restricted to: - presenting mathematical knowledge - user studies with MKM tools or other mathematical interfaces - novel, original or downright funky interfaces to mathematics software - interactive mathematics SUBMISSIONS AND DATES We are seeking submissions of either papers on and/or demonstrations of user interfaces for mathematics. Videos, prototypes, mock ups and any other sort of demonstration are welcome! Initial proceedings will be online and we will discuss at the workshop the possibilities of a special issue in a human factors journal. Submission format: article of 3-8 (printed) pages, in HTML or PDF format, which may include other electronic presentations such as videos or animations complemented by an abstract of less than 150 words. - Either: - Submit your presentation proposal by 5th June - Or submit an abstract of your presentation by 5th June and a revised version before 12th June - Expect an answer on 27th June - Enjoy the workshop on 10th August PROGRAMME COMMITTEE David Aspinall School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh, Scotland Paul Cairns UCL Interaction Center, University College London, Great Britain Olga Caprotti Research Institute for Symbolic Computation, Linz, Austria Norbert Kajler Ecole Nationale Superieure des Mines de Paris, France Paul Libbrecht (organizer) Competence Center for E-Learning, DFKI GmbH, Saarbruecken, Germany Robert Miner Design Science, Long Beach, California, USA MORE INFORMATION More about MKM 2006 can be found at: http://www.reading.ac.uk/MKM06/ More information can be read from the workshop's web-page http://www.activemath.org/~paul/MathUI06/
