Call for Project Proposals
Intelligent Systems Lab Amsterdam of the University of Amsterdam
invites project proposals for eNTERFACE'10, the 6^th Summer
Workshop on Multimodal Interfaces, to be held in Amsterdam, the
Netherlands, from July 12^th to August 6^th , 2010. Following the
tremendous success of the previous eNTERFACE workshops
(www.enterface.net), eNTERFACE'10 aims at continuing and enhancing
the tradition of collaborative, localized research and development
work by gathering, in a single place, leading researchers in
multimodal interfaces and students to work on specific projects for 4
complete weeks. eNTERFACE'10 will encompass presentation sessions,
including tutorial state-of-the-art surveys on several aspects of
design of multimodal interfaces, given by invited senior researchers,
and periodical presentations of the results achieved by each project
group. The ultimate goal is to make this event a unique opportunity
for students and experts from all over the world to meet and
effectively work together, so as to foster the development of
tomorrow's multimodal research community. Project submissions on
all themes below are welcome. We particularly encourage
interdisciplinary proposals covering several themes and proposals
integrating the OpenInterface and/or the EyesWeb XMI platforms. Visit
our website for more information.
