However, in recent times, sensors, <br>chips, or computing devices in general changed their physical location <br>and became much more embedded and immersive. They became wearables and <br>they even moved onto the skin (skinnables) and into the human body <br>(implantables). In this focus section we would like to elaborate how <br>this revolution may affect the way we look at the relationships among <br>humans and between humans, human elements and computing devices. <br>Moreover, we want to discuss new ideas what should be done to improve <br>these interactions and “entanglements” and what can be done to <br>understand them better. <br>This focus section is intended to provide a platform for sharing and <br>creating new ideas about the relationships among humans, technology <br>embedded in the environment (networked or not), and humans whose <br>physical, physiological or/and mental capabilities are extended <br>and/or modified by technology. Given these extended realities, the <br>interface as we have known it and even the practical meaning of the word <br>“interaction” have changed. This focus section wants to provide a stage <br>to propose new methods for interaction, engagement, and <br>relationships between technology, humans, “modified” humans and the new <br>reality. <br>We encourage researchers and practitioners to share their ideas and <br>experience for these new realities of interaction, engagement, and <br>interface mechanisms with the community. Researchers and <br>practitioners from the areas of the Internet of things (IoT), <br>wearables, implantables, skinnables, and embedded computing are in <br>particular encouraged to submit papers describing their work in these <br>mentioned areas. <br> <br>----------------------------------------------------------- <br>*Topics of Interest* <br>----------------------------------------------------------- <br> <br>Topics we want to cover in this focus section include but are not <br>limited to the following topics: <br>• Commercial wearables, skinnables and implantables vs. medical grade <br>devices. Which added value do these devices give? <br>• Possibilities of relationships among WHAT - e.g., interaction and <br>symbiosis. Can we see a taxonomy of relationships with and within WHAT? <br>• Holistic views: When does a group of WHAT become a team, group of <br>organisms, or agents? <br>• What makes a device smart? Which domains are covered or affected by a <br>device’s smartness? <br>• When does a wearable, an implantable, or a thing become part of the human? <br>• What is the role of system thinking and practice in dealing with <br>arrays of WHAT or managing them? <br>• WHAT and the integration of senses (e.g., touch and smell). How can <br>WHAT enhance human sensing? <br>• WHAT vs. WHERE: Physical dimensions of WHAT. <br> <br>=========================================== <br>/*Submission guidelines and procedure*/ <br>---------------------------------------------------------- <br>All submissions (abstracts and later final manuscripts) must be original <br>and may not be under review by another publication. <br>The manuscripts should be submitted either in .doc or in .rtf format. <br>All papers will be blindly peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers. <br>Authors are invited to submit 8-20 pages paper (including authors' <br>information, abstract, all tables, figures, references, etc.). <br>The paper should be written according to the IxD&A authors' guidelines <br>->http://ixdea.uniroma2.it/inevent/events/idea2010/index.php?s=101&a=7 <br> <br> <br>========================================================== <br>*Authors' guidelines* <br>---------------------------------------------------------- <br>Link to the paper submission page: <br>http://ixdea-2018.uniroma2.it/ojs/index.php/ixdea/login <br> <br>(Please upload all submissions using the Submission page. <br>When submitting the paper, please, choose the section: <br>"FS: Beyond Computers: Wearables, Humans, And Things - WHAT!"") <br> <br>More information on the submission procedure and on the characteristics <br>of the paper format can be found on the website of the IxD&A Journal <br>where information on the copyright policy and responsibility of authors, <br>publication ethics and malpractice are published. <br> <br>For scientific advice and queries, please contact any of the <br>guest-editors below and mark the subject as: <br>/IxD&A FS: Beyond Computers: Wearables, Humans, And Things - WHAT!"/ <br> <br>• what17 [at] hciv [dot] de <br> <br>---------------------------------------------------------------- <br>**** IxD&A in figures **** <br>---------------------------------------------------------------- <br>*View stats:* <br>http://ixdea.uniroma2.it/inevent/events/idea2010/index.php?s=9&a=403 <br>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------* <br>*** <br>* Forthcoming issues:* <br>http://ixdea.uniroma2.it/inevent/events/idea2010/index.php?s=102 <br> <br> <br>• Spring 2019 <br>'Intermediate-level knowledge in Child-Computer Interaction' <br>Guest editors: Olof Torgersson, Eva Eriksson, Wolmet Barendregt, Tilde <br>Bekker <br>with a focus section on: <br>'Games for Urban Sustainability' <br>Guest Editors: Andrea Vesco, Salvatore Di Dio, Bernat Gaston <br> <br>• Summer 2019 <br>'Indigenous Knowledge and Practices contributing to new approaches in <br>learning/educational technologies' <br>Guest Editors: Kasper Rodil, Heike Winschiers-Theophilus, Tutaleni I. <br>Asino, Tariq Zaman <br> <br> <br>---------------------------------------------------------- <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
