Second CFP: Engineering Interactive Systems with SCXML

This is a repeat of an earlier post.  The deadline for submissions is 
approaching.

  We are conducting the 2nd SCXML workshop and invite you to contribute:

** Call for Papers

------------------------------------------------------------

2nd Workshop on Engineering Interactive Systems with SCXML In 
conjunction with EICS 2015 (http://eics2015.org) , Duisburg, Germany 
June 23rd, 2015

** About

------------------------------------------------------------

The W3C SCXML standard (http://www.w3.org/TR/scxml/) for Harel 
state-charts, in unison with the W3C MMI architecture 
(http://www.w3.org/TR/mmi-arch/) specification and related work from the 
W3C MMI working group are a promising suite of recommendations to become 
the ``HTML of multi-modal applications''. This 2nd installment of the 
workshop will provide a forum for academia and industry alike to discuss 
recent developments with regard to dialog modeling using state-charts 
and identify remaining short-comings in the operationalization and 
application of the related approaches.

** Workshop Topics

------------------------------------------------------------

The workshop will provide a forum to discuss submissions detailing the 
use of SCXML, in particular, multi-modal dialog systems adhering to the 
concepts outlined by the various W3C standards in general and related 
approaches of declarative dialog modeling to engineer interactive systems.

We are interested in:

* Implementations of the standard

* SCXML development tools

* Usages in interactive systems within a web browser, on the desktop, 
mobile or in the Web of Things

* Applications in robotics and adjacent spaces of interactive systems

* Integration of SCXML into existing technologies, especially related 
W3C standards

* Theoretical explorations and extensions of SCXML

* Evaluations of SCXML for industrial use-cases

** Submission

------------------------------------------------------------

We invite submissions in three different formats:

* Position papers and posters (4 pages) describe a motivated opinion or 
viewpoint, identifies an open issue or important problem, or presents 
work in progress

* Demo papers (4 pages) describe a system setup

* Full papers (6 pages) describe substantial contributions of novel 
ongoing work

All submissions will be peer-reviewed. Besides based on general 
contributions, submissions will also be selected on their potential to 
initiate discussion. Accepted submissions will be made available as 
online proceeding on our web site. Moreover, they will be made available 
on our publication server to ensure that they can be cited. Copyright is 
retained by the authors thus papers can be submitted for other venues 
that allow this.

** Format

------------------------------------------------------------

All submissions have to be

1. prepared according to the HCI Archive Format 
(http://chi2012.acm.org/cfp-formatting-instructions.shtml#archiveformat) 
and 2. submitted in PDF format through the workshop management system at 
EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=scxml2015) .
