(New) Late-Breaking Works

Deadline: 2 July 2021
(2 to 8 pages long not including references)
The Late-Breaking Works (LBWs) track provides the HSI community with an opportunity to present new and exciting contributions that showcase innovative technologies, extend prior research conversations, detail short self-contained studies, or provide provocations for new work and ideas to emerge. We welcome submissions around a diversity of topics and methodologies.
We encourage all members of the HSI community to submit Late-Breaking Works to elicit useful feedback, while sharing valuable and original ideas and fostering discussions with others at the conference. Submissions are anonymous and should not include any author names, affiliations, and contact information in the PDF.
Accepted LBWs will be presented as posters during HSI2021. Details regarding presentation will be provided with acceptance notifications. Accepted LBWs will be available in the ACM Digital Library.

Research Track

Deadline: Extension 30 April 2021
(up to 8 pages including diagrams and references)
Research Papers present significant contributions to research, development and practice in the field of human-systems integration. Submissions should present new approaches to HSI, emphasizing the interest and originality of the approach and provide complete and substantial support for its results and conclusions. Only unpublished papers will be accepted.

Industry Track

Deadline: Extension 30 April 2021
(From 4 to 6 pages including diagrams)
We solicit papers with practical implications or tied to actual implementation in industry and the operational world. These papers will be presented either in special sessions or combined with related research papers. This track is dedicated to practitioners to share the recent evolution of industrial innovations.

Early Stage Research Track

Deadline: Extension 30 April 2021
(Up to 4 pages including diagrams and references)
Early stage research has not yet been completed, or may be in the phase of developing research questions and approach, results, or practical work. This track encourages the active participation of emerging researchers and professionals to support their work and to involve them in the HSI community.
This track also welcomes submissions from students involved in graduate work not yet sufficiently completed for papers in the regular research track. These papers will be presented in a special session allocat ing more time to discussion and feedback.
Early stage researchers may be assisted by an experienced mentor in their area of research. All submissions should include a brief description of the researcher’s experience.

Panels, Workshops, Posters Demos

Deadline: Extension 30 April 2021
(Up to 2 pages including diagrams and references)
Panels must explore a range of perspectives as well as controversial and burning issues. Panelists should include different backgrounds, i.e., practitioner/researcher, cultural backgrounds, and disciplines.
Workshops are discussion forums of work in progress, which are managed by a chair and a committee, and focused on a specific theme. All accepted workshops are held on a half-day or full-day period.
Posters present research in progress or recently developed industrial devices and innovative methods.
Demos must show ground-breaking innovative products and prototypes.

Paperless Track

Deadline: 17 May 2021
(An Abstract — up to one page)
We solicit paperless contributions with burning work in progress implications. These paperless contributions will be presented either in special sessions or combined with related research papers. This track is dedicated to last minute contributions that are very important to share.

Submissions

Submissions must be written in English and present unpublished work. They will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 reviewers. Acceptance will be based primarily on originality and high-quality contributions. They should have a cover page including title, author’s names, postal and electronic addresses, keywords and abstract, and be sent in PDF format. For information on presentation format consult HSI2021 website. All accepted submissions will be presented at HSI 2021 and appear in the Conference Proceedings. Selected full papers will be accessible to INCOSE members and in-cooperation associations (to be announced later).
