- formal evaluation of performance of wearable computer technologies, and comparisons with existing technologies.
Hardware:
- wearable system design, input devices, wearable displays, actuators, electronic textiles, and batteries.
- interactive and industrial design.
- wearable sensors, and networks for sensing context-awareness or cognitive state.
- techniques for power management and heat dissipation, and manufacturing issues.
Software:
- architectures, including systems that allow wearable computers to exploit surrounding infrastructure.
- operating systems issues related to wearable computing, including issues such as scheduling, security, and power management.
- networks, including wireless networks, on-body networks, and support for interaction with other wearables, ubiquitous-computing systems or the Internet.
Human Factors:
- interfaces, including hands-free approaches, speech-based interaction, sensory augmentation, haptics, and human-centered robotics.
- user modeling, user evaluation, and interfaces for combining wearable and ubiquitous computing.
- social implications, health, and privacy issues.
- wearable communities and wearable technology for social-network computation, visualization and augmentation.
Submission:
Papers and posters must be submitted electronically through the submission website. Initial submissions are due on April 28th.
Papers and posters will be fully reviewed. Authors of accepted submissions will have the opportunity to update their submissions based on the reviews before the ISWC 2008 requires electronic submission.
Reviewers will be instructed to maintain the confidentiality of all materials for submitted papers throughout the entire reviewing process.
