Workshops Introduction

Workshops provide an extended forum for small groups (15-20 people) to exchange ideas on a specific topic of common interest. CHI 99 offers workshops covering a wide range of HCI topics. Workshops will be held on Sunday and Monday, 16 and 17 May 1999.

Workshop Participation

Workshop participants are selected on the basis of position papers submitted directly to a workshop's organizer. A position paper is generally 2-4 pages long and outlines the submitter's views on the workshop theme and the reasons for the submitter's interest in the topic. Check each workshop for specific information. Position papers must be received by 26 February 1999. Submitters will be notified of selection by 26 March 1999. Accepted workshop participants will be charged a registration fee of US$75 for a one-day workshop and US$150 for a one-and-a-half or two-day workshop.
