CfP: CHI 2009 Workshop - Mobile User Experience Research: Challenges, Methods & Tools

Deadline: 23 October 2008
Source: Unknown, 3 October 2008
Submitted by Jens Riegelsberger

This workshop brings together researchers in industry and academia, designers, and creators of mobile research tools who have faced the challenges of mobile UX research and may have responded with innovative approaches. We'll examine the co-evolution of methods and tools by considering goals and requirements, and how these are shared and differ between mobile researchers and practitioners.

Aspects we'll consider include, but are not limited to:
* Capturing interaction and system state
* Recognizing and capturing user context and state
* Gathering and managing users' self-reports

To participate, please submit a position paper (2-5 pages, CHI Extended Abstracts format) detailing your experiences with mobile UX research.

All submissions should include:
* Your role & environment
* Methods and tools that worked well for you
* Those you've tried and discontinued – and why
* Re-appearing issues and unsolved problems in this domain
* Proposals of new tools or methods
* Any other areas you'd like to see covered

Longer submissions could also include, for example (optionally):
* Supporting photographs or illustrations
* Proposals for novel ideas
* A map of the space of mobile methods and/or tools vs. those for non-mobile products
* Offer a more extended position paper.

This workshop will provide a forum for learning from others' resources and experiences, while sharing your own. A particular goal is to create draft requirements for novel tools, through sharing, brainstorming and prototyping activities. We invite every participant to pursue these as opportunities in both open-source and commercial spaces.

The event will take place on Sunday, April 5, 2009 in Boston, MA, and will require registration for at least one day of the CHI conference; details will soon be available athttp://www.chi2009.org/. (Last year's rates are available at http://chi2008.org/registration.html)

Please send submissions to Yelena Nakhimovsky, yelenan AT google.com, with subject line "SUBMISSION FOR CHI 2009 MOBILE WORKSHOP".

Workshop organizers:
Yelena Nakhimovsky, Google
