Doctoral Consortium
Are you designing software tools that are more powerful and easier to use for everybody? Are you developing toolkits or approaches to help users be resourceful and write their own code, even without a lot of programming experience?
The IS-EUD Doctoral Consortium 2011 is a creative venue where PhD students have an opportunity to present and discuss their vision and research in end-user development (EUD). The purpose is for students to receive constructive feedback on their work, get advice about future developments, and share ideas and experiences with other students and experts within the field. Participants should have advanced beyond the introductory stage in their thesis work, and be actively engaged in the exploration of an EUD topic.
Submissions must include a paper of 4 pages in the Springer LNCS format. The paper should include a description of the research problem, the theoretical background and approach chosen, and the work performed so far. Papers must be sent by email as PDF files to: Daniela Fogli and Elisa Giaccardi.
Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of IS-EUD 2011, published by Springer as Lecture Notes on Computer Science (LNCS). The PhD student presenting the most interesting and innovative research in the field of EUD will receive the Piero Mussio Award.
The Doctoral Consortium will be held on June 7, 2011.
