Known Issues (5 min max)
•   UbiComp 2008 CfP
•   Number of tracks
•   Re-introducing short papers / notes
•   ACM Press vs. Springer LNCS
•   Electronic and/or paper proceedings

http://www.ubicomp.org/ubicomp2008
Number of Tracks
•1
Short Papers / Notes
• 4 ACM 2-column pages vs 10 for full papers
• Tech Notes category in UbiComp 2001-03
• New: Papers + Notes judged by the same PC
  and at the same PC meeting
• Interspersed in proceedings with full papers
• Referenced simply as “In Proceedings of
  UbiComp 2008”
• Presented as a shorter presentation in main track
• Benefit: increase # of papers in single track
ACM Press vs. Springer
• Springer proceedings have been removed from the
  “SCI list” (rating system for Korea, Japan, etc.)
   – Using Springer may be detrimental to local submission
     and participation
• UbiComp 2008 will be in-cooperation with the ACM
  (SIGMOBILE accepted; SIGCHI, SIGWEB,
  SIGSOFT pending)
   – UbiComps in the past have had in-cooperation status
• Proceedings will be published by ACM Press
• No financial tie to ACM other than for proceedings
  production (finances managed by Sungkyunkwan
  University) … for 2008
Electronic and/or Paper?
Motivation to move to electronic proceedings:
• Reduce lead time from >6 months to 3 months
• Get research in front of the community more
  quickly
• Promote UbiComp’s active, dynamic atmosphere
Potential Changes:
• Electronic version [only] at conference
• Paper version available some weeks later
• Move deadline from March/April to June (?)
Venue Proliferation

Affiliation
• We can reconsider requesting ACM sponsorship in 2009
• “ACM UbiComp” only if sponsored, “UbiComp” otherwise
• SIG(s) must financially underwrite the conference to be
  ACM sponsored, separate finances for in-cooperation
   – Removal of financial risk currently taken on by local organisation
   – 18% fee added to expenses by ACM, covering admin services etc
• Proceedings can be published by the ACM if in-
  cooperation with at least one SIG
• There exist other conferences which maintain independent
  steering committees and identities, yet are ACM-
  sponsored, typically by >1 SIG
   – MobileHCI, DUX, CSCW, UIST
   – SIGMOBILE exec has indicated support for this approach
UbiComp 2009?
• Proposals
  –   Conference Chair(s)
  –   Venue (locale, site)
  –   Program outline (dates, categories)
  –   Finances (underwriter, budget)
