Call for participation

NordiCHI 2020 invites original papers that move the field of Human-Computer Interaction forward, be it through the advance of theory, methodology, or practice. We invite submissions of long and short papers of the highest international standard, presenting original work that significantly contributes to research and practice of Human-Computer Interaction in its broadest sense.

We especially welcome submissions that address trends within HCI in the perspective of the conference theme: shaping experiences, shaping society.

Submission format

Please note that ACM has recently modified its Publication Workflow and Article Templates for the submission and publication process (see https://www.acm.org/publications/taps/word-template-workflow). Authors must write and submit their papers using the single-column "Review Submission Format".

Please refer to the Instructions for Authors for detailed guidance on the selection of the correct templates, preparation of your manuscript for review and publishing the final version of your paper.

The length of research papers submitted to NordiCHI 2020 is:

  • Long research papers are up to 15 pages long in single-column format, excluding references.
  • Short research papers are up to 6 pages long in single-column format, excluding references.

Submission of video material to accompany papers is encouraged.

NordiCHI anonymisation policy is the same as for the CHI conference and it states: authors are expected to remove author and institutional identities from the title and header areas of the paper, as noted in the submission instructions (Note: changing the text colour of the author information is not sufficient). Also, please make sure that information that may identify you does not appear in the document's meta-data (e.g., the “Authors” field in your word processor's “Save As” dialogue box). Further suppression of identity in the body of the paper is left to the authors' discretion. We do expect that authors leave citations to their previous work un-anonymised so that reviewers can ensure that all previous research has been taken into account by the authors. However, authors are encouraged to cite their own work in the third person, for example, avoiding “As described in our previous work [10],…” and using instead “As described by [10],…”

Selection process

Research papers are peer-reviewed in a double-blind review process.

Technical setup at the conference

Research papers will be presented during the conference. A video projector and sound system will be available.

Publication

Research papers will appear in the Proceedings of NordiCHI 2020, which will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Video materials will be published as source material in the ACM Digital Library.

Authors of accepted papers must present at the NordiCHI 2020 Conference, and register for the conference.
