KEY FACTS: • |
We encourage researchers, students and practitioners to submit Work-in-Progress (WiP) papers based on their recent viewpoints, new discoveries, and early-stage design and development in disciplines that are in line with the areas of interest of TVX / IMX. The WiP track is intended for thought-provoking and out of the box ideas, possibly with early proofs of concept or prototypes, as well as position papers. The WiP session is geared towards early career researchers, but also caters to seasoned scholars for the presentation of unfinished projects. The WiP track thus provides a unique opportunity for exchanging brave new ideas, for receiving feedback on projects currently in progress and for fostering collaborations. We thus encourage submissions that are not merely a report of work done but an input for discussing with fellow researchers at the conference.
Accepted submissions will be presented as a short pitch presentation and a physical poster at the conference. Authors of accepted WiP papers are also invited to bring a demo. The WiP posters will be presented as part of the conference. The accepted WiP papers will be included in conference proceedings (indexed in the ACM Digital Library). 20
