We invite you to submit proposals for workshops at IndiaHCI 2020. Workshops give an opportunity of bringing together design researchers and design practitioners in academia, public sector, business and industry for a focused and interactive discussion. The theme for this year’s edition is “Emerging Trends in Technology Design”, where the focus would be on several aspects of technology design within the larger context of innovation in emerging markets and diverse end-users. This year the workshops will be conducted online because of the prevailing global circumstances. The exact modalities of the online conference will be communicated in due course.
Workshops are interactive sessions where participants collaborate and work on a common topic. Unlike courses, workshops enable both organizer(s) and participants to contribute. Each workshop should generate ideas that will give the HCI community a new, organized way of thinking about the topic or that suggest promising directions for future work.
A workshop submission must be prepared according to the Conference Extended Abstract Format. It must be submitted via the PCS Submission System as a single PDF file. The proposal must be no more than 4 pages (including references) and have the following structure:
Conference Extended Abstract Format (no more than 4 pages), including: Background, Organizers, Link to Website, Pre-Workshop Plans, Workshop Structure, Post-Workshop Plans, 250-word Call for Participation, References.
Each paper will be reviewed through a double-blind peer-review process. This will be done by at least three independent reviewers (experts in the relevant area that are not on the review committee) and a meta-reviewer (from the review committee).
Submissions must be in the conference format, except they should have page numbers so the reviewers can more easily refer to portions.
Submissions must be in PDF format through IndiaHCI electronic submission system supported by EasyChair.
The authors must be prepared to sign an ACM copyright transfer form before the submission is published. The author retains several rights, including the right to post versions on their homepage and employer website. See the ACM copyright policy (some link) and copyright form for details.
Out of India is a curated track at IndiaHCI 2020. Through this track, we aim to showcase some of the best HCI research done in India, which has been presented at premier international venues from September 2019 through October 2020. Over the years, IndiaHCI has been attracting a diverse set of attendees, including students, researchers, industry professionals, and start-ups. The 11th edition of IndiaHCI (IndiaHCI 2020) will be organized as a virtual conference. We are expecting an increase in the number of participants. This presents the authors from India an excellent opportunity to share their published work to a vast audience from India and abroad, socialize with the local HCI community and trigger new collaborations.
We look forward to your virtual participation and presentation at IndiaHCI 2020.
The authors do not need to submit their paper for the review process. Authors will be invited based on their prior record of publication that fulfills the criteria of this track. However, we do welcome suggestions. We request authors to write to us if they believe their prior publication will be a good addition to this track.

We are eager to know if Emerging technologies be it AI, ML, AR, VR, or EDGE computing, how the UX teams are moulding their processes, changing their ways of working. This is an invite to all UX professionals and User researchers to share and present. Read more about Industry Showcase.
We want to democratize the process of choosing the topics for ‘Panel Discussions’ this year. The expert panel discussions are anchored by an experienced UX professional. Read more about Panel Discussion.
IndiaHCI invites proposals to conduct courses aligned with the theme of this year’s conference: “Emerging Trends in Technology Design”. Courses are a great way to introduce new audiences to specific topics in HCI and potentially excite more people about HCI research. The courses will be conducted online this year because of the prevailing global circumstances. The exact modalities of the online conference will be communicated in due course.
The proposals should have a Detailed Course Description, including the structure of the course, a section on other related courses, the expected outcome from the course, the intended audience, optionally, sample course materials, and, preferences for conducting the course (e.g. lecture mode, the level of interaction, spread over multiple days or in one sitting, etc). It is possible that the conference is unable to meet all the desired preferences.
Accepted Courses with the minimum number of registered participants will be conducted on a suitable online platform (watch out for the platform details on the IndiaHCI website). Course coordinators will receive remuneration based on the IndiaHCI policies.
Courses are usually delivered in a lecture mode, with optional hands-on components, where the instructor(s) introduce the course materials and go reasonably deep into the subject. The audience is not expected to have a background on the subject. The course is intended to motivate the audience to take an interest in the subject matter and study the subject in-depth and start conducting research in the area. Courses might cover areas like research methods, design, engineering, etc.
This call for participation is only for individuals interested in conducting courses as instructors. In case you want to attend the courses, please register accordingly.
Each paper will be reviewed through a double-blind peer-review process. This will be done by at least three independent reviewers (experts in the relevant area that are not on the review committee) and a meta-reviewer (from the review committee).
Welcome to the Student Design Consortium (SDC)!
This challenge provides students with a great opportunity to participate and showcase their problem solving and design skills in a national competition. It is a podium for interactions between IndiaHCI attendees, future professionals in HCI, and also the experienced HCI and Design professionals.
Over the years, this challenge has garnered a lot of interest and excitement among students from a variety of backgrounds. We are excited to be chairing the Student Design Consortium for this year, and we invite a large number of quality submissions.
The tracks for SDC 2020, in line with the broad theme of IndiaHCI 2020 “Emerging Trends in Technology Design” focus on societal challenges including:
We encourage students to engage were appropriate, with participatory design or co-creation approaches to evaluate current research or engage with upcoming developments in technology in modeling the relationship between machine intelligence and human agency, such 3D printing, digital fabrication, citizen sensing, the maker movement, AR, VR, MR, AI, machine learning, IoT, new sensors, and actuators, to name a few. We also encourage students to think beyond the existing solution and try to imagine innovative solutions to the problems proposed in our tracks.
For this year’s design challenge, the following are the evaluation criteria:
We look forward to seeing your submissions.
The submission must have the following FOUR components:
Extended Abstract: Teams will submit an anonymized paper (6 pages maximum) written in the Conference Extended Abstract Format, summarizing their design solution and its evolution. Submissions not meeting the page limit or formatting requirements will be automatically disqualified.

Poster: The poster design should be one standard A4 page in size and submitted in PDF format. Kindly submit your poster to this link.
Explainer Video: Teams must provide a supplementary video (MP4 file, max 5-minutes), with a file-size no larger than 50 MB, illustrating how your solution fits the lives of the users with the help of scenarios. It may also illustrate some details of the interface and the information presented. In case the size of your video file is larger than 50 MB, please upload it on the internet and paste the URL in the submission portal. Please make sure that your video and your URL are anonymized as per the requirements of the track.
Proof of Student Status: All authors must submit a note signed by their academic supervisor(s)/head of school to SDCChairIndiaHCI@gmail.com with the title of their paper as the subject line. Authors working in teams must send their student proof as one zip file. The student proof is used to verify:
