Histories of Computing in Eastern Europe volume now available
by Chris Leslie 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Dear Colleagues, I am pleased to announce that the proceedings volume from our Histories of Computing in Eastern Europe workshop in Poznan has been published by Springer. Details are available on their website: https://www.springer.com/cn/book/9783030291594 The Proceedings come from an event organized by IFIP Working Group 9.7 at the last IFIP World Congress. WG 9.7 is composed of industry professionals, historians, archivists, and others with an interest in the history of computing broadly defined. The contents of the volume are divided into six parts: 1. EASTERN EUROPE. The papers in this section offer new glimpses into the history of computing in Armenia, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary. For instance, Szabo offers a compelling portrait of a computing class conducted with a chalkboard in Hungary. Armenian Computers: First Generations Sergey B. Oganjanyan, Valery V. Shilov, and Sergey A. Silantiev The Emergence of Computing Disciplines in Communist Czechoslovakia: What’s in a (Sovietized) Name? Michal Doležel and Zdeněk Smutný László Kalmár and the First University-Level Programming and Computer Science Training in Hungary Máté Szabó 2. POLAND. These papers were part of our collaboration with the Polish Information Processing Society and the Enigma Live event in Poznan. Early Computer Development in Poland Marek Hołyński The Long Road toward the Rejewski-Różycki-Zygalski Cipher Center Marek Grajek 3. SOVIET UNION. A highlight of these papers is co-authored by the children of two great names in the USSR: Anatoly Kitov and Victor Glushkov. They challenge the notion that Soviet computer science was a failure because it did not result in an ARPA-style national network. Kitov also details his own work in the first article to discuss Soviet control programs that monitored data transfer between multiple terminals for collaborative work. Anatoly Kitov and Victor Glushkov: Pioneers of Russian Digital Economy and Informatics Olga V. Kitova and Vladimir A. Kitov On the History of Gosplan, the Main Computer Center of the State Planning Committee of the USSR Vladimir A. Kitov Main Teleprocessing Monitors for Third-Generation Computers in the USSR Vladimir A. Kitov 4. COCOM AND COMECOM. Sikora and Schmitt offer extended examinations of the permutations of the cold war blockades based on their archival research. My own paper, an outgrowth of my presentation to TC 9 in 2014 for the Turku Human Choice in Computing workshop, rounds out the group. Socialist Life of a U.S. Army Computer in the GDR’s Financial Sector Martin Schmitt Cooperating with Moscow, Stealing in California: Poland’s Legal and Illicit Acquisition of Microelectronics Knowhow from 1960 to 1990 Mirosław Sikora From CoCom to Dot-Com: Technological Determinisms in Computing Blockades, 1949 to 1994 Christopher Leslie 5. ANALOG COMPUTING. Two papers about computing before digital computing. Leipälä, Shilov, and Silantiev also include a translation of the book they found in their appendix. Israel Abraham Staffel: Lost Book Is Found Timo Leipälä, Valery V. Shilov, Sergey A. Silantiev Mathematicians at the Scottish Café Chris Zielinski 6. PUBLIC HISTORY. Bodrato, Caruso, and Cignoni demonstrate what insights can be gleaned by their project of collecting and reverse-engineering early hardware. Smolevitskaya offers not just an overview of an archive but has also painstakingly tallied Rameev’s inventions, including the iterations of Ural computers. Discovering Eastern Europe PCs by Hacking Them ... Today Stefano Bodrato, Fabrizio Caruso, Giovanni A. Cignoni Twentieth Anniversary of the Russian Virtual Museum of Computing and Information Technology History Vladimir A. Kitov and Edward M. Proydakov ICT History Study as Corporate Philanthropy in Latvia Inara Opmane and Rihards Balodis The Engineering Heritage of Bashir Rameev at the Polytechnic Museum: Honoring the 100th Anniversary of His Birth Marina Smolevitskaya WG 9.7 meets roughly every other year; more information about our past workshops is available on our website (http://ifipwg97.org) Our next meeting will hopefully be in Asia in 2020 … more information on that coming soon.

Request from Twitter
by Ari Zelmanow 19 Sep '19

19 Sep '19

Greetings! Twitter is planning for the future of our developer platform. Recognizing the impact of academic research taking place with Twitter data, we have been investing in research to learn from the academic community. Researchers tell us that they use our API because it's the best source of public, conversational data. It’s a way to understand what the world is thinking about nearly any topic, from nearly any place, at any time. In fact, nearly 1/3 of new Twitter developer accounts have stated they're doing academic research. But we’ve fallen short in supporting and enabling them. When accessing our data sets, they face technical challenges, pricing obstacles, and lack of clarity on best practices. We want to make sure the voices of the community are heard as we design and plan for the future of our API and would greatly welcome participation from the AoIR community in this learning exercise. There are 2 ways to get involved: 1. Sign up to participate in our research studies <http://t.co/academicresearchstudy>. Our team will be sending out email surveys and reaching out to have conversations. 2. We've launched a new section on our UserVoice forum where you can publicly share your ideas <http://t.co/academicresearchfdbk> for how we can better support academic research endeavors. Others will see your ideas and be able to vote for them. Thank you in advance for your participation! Best, Ari Zelmanow Twitter Research Lead, Developer and Enterprise Solutions

Fourth CfP ACM Intelligent User Interfaces - IUI 2020, Cagliari, Italy
by Oana Inel 19 Sep '19

19 Sep '19

* We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CfP * # ACM IUI 2020: Call for Papers * Cagliari, Italy * March 17-20, 2020 * http://iui.acm.org/2020/ * Contact: program2020(a)iui.acm.org ## Upcoming deadlines Abstract: Oct 1, 2019 (compulsory) Paper submission: Oct 8, 2019 ## ACM IUI 2020 ACM IUI 2020 is the 25th annual premier international forum for reporting outstanding research and development on intelligent user interfaces. ACM IUI is where the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and the Artificial Intelligence (AI) communities meet, with contributions from related fields such as psychology, behavioral science, cognitive science, computer graphics, design, the arts, and more. Our focus is to improve the interaction between humans and digital technology, by leveraging both HCI approaches and state-of-the art AI techniques from machine learning, natural language processing, data mining, knowledge representation and reasoning. ### Why you should submit to ACM IUI While other conferences focus on either the AI or HCI side of this research, we address the complex interaction between the two. We strongly encourage submissions that simultaneously discuss research from both HCI and AI. We also welcome works that focus more on one side or the other, but still highlight the connections between the two. We value papers that contribute to the methodology or theory for evaluation of intelligent user interfaces. We do not require evaluations with users, but we do expect papers to include an appropriate evaluation for their stated contributions. ACM IUI welcomes contribution from all relevant arenas, academia, industry, government, and non-profit organizations, and gives its participants the opportunity to present and see cutting-edge IUI work in a focused and interactive setting. The conference is large enough to be diverse and lively, but small enough to allow for extensive interaction among attendees and easy attendance to the events that the conference offers, ranging from oral paper presentations, poster sessions, workshops, panels and doctoral consortium for graduate students. ## Papers We accept two forms of contributions: long and short papers. They should both make novel contributions to IUI, however - long papers should make more substantial and significant contributions. - short papers can contain more preliminary and focused contributions. Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation indices. A selected set of accepted top quality full papers will be invited to submit their extended versions for publication in an ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS, http://tiis.acm.org) special issue titled "Highlights of IUI 2020". ## Topics IUI topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Application areas * Education and learning-related technologies * Health and intelligent health technologies * Assistive technologies * Social media technologies * Artificial personal assistants * Information retrieval, search, and recommendation system * Interface types * Affective and aesthetic interfaces * Collaborative interfaces * Intelligent wearable and mobile interfaces * Ubiquitous smart environments * Modalities * Agent based interfaces (e.g., embodied agents) * Multi-modal interfaces (speech, gestures, eye gaze, face, physiological information etc.) * Conversational interfaces * Tangible interfaces * Intelligent visualization * Methods and approaches * Methods for explanations (e.g., transparency, control, and trust ) * Persuasive technologies in IUI * Planning and plan recognition for IUI * Knowledge-based approaches to user interface design and generation * User Modelling for Intelligent Interfaces * User-Adaptive interaction and personalization * Crowd computing and human computation * Human-in-the loop machine learning * Evaluations of intelligent user interfaces * Reproducibility * Meta-analysis * Mixed-methods evaluations ## Dates * Oct 1, 2019: Abstract deadline (compulsory) * Oct 8, 2019: Papers deadline * Dec 12, 2019: Notification * Jan 17, 2020: Camera ready due * Mar 17, 2020: Conference starts ## Submission - Full and Short Papers We invite original paper submissions that describe novel user interfaces, applications, interactive and intelligent technologies, empirical studies, or design techniques. We do not require evaluations with users, but we do expect papers to include an appropriate evaluation for their stated contribution. Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation indices. A selected set of accepted top quality full papers will be invited to submit their extended versions for publication in an ACM Transactions on Interactive Intelligent Systems (TiiS, http://tiis.acm.org) special issue titled "Highlights of IUI 2020". ### Submission Guidelines * Full paper (anonymized 10 pages, references do not count toward the page limit) should make substantial, novel, and relevant contribution to the field. * Short paper (anonymized 4 pages, references do not count toward the page limit) is a much more focused and succinct contribution to the field. Short papers are not expected to include a discussion of related work that is as broad and complete as that of Full papers. * Anonymization: ACM IUI uses a double-blind review process. All submissions must be appropriately anonymized according to the following guidelines: * Author’s names and affiliations are not visible anywhere in the paper. * Acknowledgements should be anonymized or removed during the review process. * Self-citations should be included where necessary, but must use the third person. For example, "... as shown in our previous user study [2] ... " is not allowed, whereas "... as shown in Smith et al. [2] " is acceptable (because in this case the citation [2] will NOT be perceived as self-citation). * Failure to follow these guidelines may result in submissions being rejected without review. * Authors should also be aware of the SIGCHI Policy for Submission and Review at SIGCHI Conferences (https://sigchi.org/about/sigchi-policies/conference-policies/submission-and…) * Submissions should follow the standard sigconf format, using one of the Interim ACM templates available at http://www.acm.org/publications/article-templates/proceedings-template.html: ** LaTex Template for Papers (https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/consolidated-tex-t…) ** Microsoft Word Template for Papers (https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/word_style/interim…) * Authors are required to include a proper classification for the paper according to the ACM Classification System (CCS). Additional information on how to use it is available at: http://dl.acm.org/ccs/ccs.cfm Accepted full papers will be invited for oral presentation. Accepted short papers will be invited either as oral or poster presentation, depending on the nature and quality of the paper. #### Please note: ACM IUI 2020 is using what is called PCS 2.0 (https://new.precisionconference.com) for paper submissions. To aid SIGCHI in the process of paper submission and management, this system and hence its interface is still in development. You are encouraged to report PCS 2.0 problems or to make interface suggestions to support(a)precisionconference.com ## Chairs * Cristina Conati, University of British Columbia, Canada * Davide Spano, University of Cagliari, Italy * Nava Tintarev, University of Delft, Netherlands * Contact: program2020(a)iui.acm.org

Hi Zoe, Let's connect. I do digital ethnography work as well, but will not be in Brisbane for the conference. Let's connect after and see if there are similar research interests!

If you think this is a phishing (scam) email, please forward to phishbowl(a)famu.edu or call 412-HELP. ________________________________ Hi everyone, I really like the idea of these 'Birds of a Feather' meetings, it seems like a great opportunity to meet people with similar research interests/problems. With that in mind, I would like to propose a meeting of digital ethnographers! My background is in anthropology and I combine online-, offline- and autoethnography in my PhD research on the labour of YouTube creators. It would be great to meet some fellow digital ethnographers, especially as they're hard to find in my local academic community, and talk about approaches/problems. Can I propose, as Jonathon suggested below, going to a pub or park or something on Thursday evening? Reply directly to let me know if you're interested and if there are enough of us (say 5+) then I'll send an email to the group. Can't wait to be in Brisbane soon (though can wait for the 24 hour flight 🤯) Best, Zoe ________________________ Zoë Glatt https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=www.zoeglatt.com&da…<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.zoegla…> ESRC PhD Researcher in Media & Communications London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) Managing Editor: Communication, Culture & Critique Associate Lecturer in Media & Communications (2019/20): Goldsmiths and London College of Communications YouTube channel<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtu…> | Twitter<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.c…> | LSE bio<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lse.ac…> <https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lse.ac…> ________________________________ From: Air-L <air-l-bounces(a)listserv.aoir.org> on behalf of Jonathon Hutchinson <jonathon.hutchinson(a)sydney.edu.au> Sent: 03 September 2019 06:19 To: air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org <air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org> Subject: [Air-L] Birds of a Feather at 2019 AoIR Conference Hello AoIRists, This year at the 2019 AoIR conference, we are once again encouraging attendees to gather together to discuss areas of shared interest. These meetings are referred to as ‘Birds of a Feather’, because they, well, flock together. While these meetings are not formally organised by the Conference Committee, we encourage AoIR members to post ideas on potential areas of interest, research, and projects to the AoIR mailing-list to seek interest from other members and conference attendees. Ideally, areas of interest will flock organically and in an inclusive manner, so please don’t be afraid to nominate your idea (and yourself!) for one of these sessions. The conference program this year leaves your time free on the Thursday evening, and if you opt out of our expertly crafted social outings, you might also consider flocking together on Friday evening. We think the best way to gather is in a social setting in one of the amazing spaces located around Brisbane’s city centre. Below is a list of places we think suit the Birds of a Feather concept very well, but please do get in touch if you require specific kinds of locations and/or resources. And if you’re gathering together as a large group, do make sure to book a table or room at your venue ahead of time, to make sure there’s enough space. On Brisbane’s South Bank, just across the river from QUT, you’ll find bars and cafes around Stanley St Plaza: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eatso…, and more cafes and restaurants on Little Stanley St: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eatso… At Howard Smith Wharves, under the Story Bridge, various new pubs, bars, and restaurants have opened recently: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fhowardsmi… In Fish Lane, South Brisbane, there are various quirky bars and restaurants: https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexplorefi… On behalf of the Local Organising Committee, we wish you all the best with organising the next iteration of engaging discussions and thought provocations!

Re: [Air-L] AoIR2019 Parkrun!
by Jean Burgess 17 Sep '19

Slight amendment for those unfamiliar with parkrun: you only need to register and bring your barcode if you want to get an official time. If you don't want an official time, that's fine, but try to steer clear of the finish line when you get to the end of the run. On 17/9/19, 10:16 am, "Air-L on behalf of Jean Burgess" <air-l-bounces(a)listserv.aoir.org on behalf of je.burgess(a)qut.edu.au> wrote: For people who are attending AoIR2019 in Brisbane and who enjoy a nice run/walk/jog in the mornings, I thought it might be fun to do Parkrun together on the Saturday morning. The Southbank parkrun start location should be an easy walk from where most people are staying (and it loops through the Botanic Gardens and QUT). Course description: https://www.parkrun.com.au/southbank/course/ It starts at 7:00 am so there will be plenty of time to recover and get to the conference by 9:00. All the info is at the link below, but please take note that you will need to register online (for free) and print out your barcode beforehand. If you are already registered for your local parkrun, there is no need to register again, but you will need to pack that printed barcode on a slip of paper (or official keyring/wristband) in your AoiR suitcase.
