DS 2015 - DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM

The ITS Doctoral Symposium is a forum in which Ph.D. students can meet and discuss their work with each other and a panel of experienced Interactive Surface researchers in an informal and interactive setting.
Students should submit a paper that describes: the problem that the thesis aims to address; the broad approach and how it builds upon and goes beyond the most central of relevant previous work; the work completed and the plan for the full dissertation work. Completed work may be presented as an overview or highlighting a particularly important part in depth.
Doctoral Symposium papers will be published in the ITS conference companion distributed at the conference.
Each submission will be reviewed by both DS chairs to assess its suitability for the DS, as well as additional expert reviewers when necessary. This will be based on whether the work is sufficiently mature to present but still early enough for the student to benefit from the feedback and experience.
Accepted authors will present their work to the DS chairs and expert reviewers and participate in an intensive workshop around ITS research. The Doctoral Symposium will take place at the conference venue on Sunday, November 15, 2015 (for accepted authors and invited experts only!).
