Dear colleagues,

for the international conference CHI 2000 in The Hague, ACM and SIGCHI
are jointly offering a scholarship programme which allows successful
authors from economically disadvantaged countries to apply for grants
for attending the conference in The Hague.

This is the first time such a programme is being offered and if it
proves successful it may serve as a model for future conferences.
Thus it is extremely important that you as ACM representatives
spread information about this programme in your country as widely
as possible and stimulate scientist to submit high quality papers
and proposals for tutorials to CHI 2000.

Details about the programme and the application procedure will
immediately be published on the CHI 2000 Web page: www.acm.org/chi2000   .
I also include a brief note on our mentoring support programme.

Please make this scholarship programme a success and help scientists
from your country to attend the conference and make their work
internationally known.

Final decisions about scholarships will be taken on November 7;
successful applicants will be informed immediately afterwards.

Thanks for your help!

Claus Unger

ACM Secretary and Treasurer

p.s.: to learn for future programmes, I would appreciate it if you would
         briefly inform me about your supportive actions

CHI 2000
========

        CHI 2000
        1-6 April 2000
        The Hague,  The Netherlands

2000 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

http://www.acm.org/chi2000

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

The Future is Here

 Computers are ubiquitous and increasingly affecting our lives. Today,
 computers are portable, held in the hand or carried in a pocket, worn as
 part of clothing, and embedded in offices, homes, and automobiles.
 Human-Computer Interaction as a field is thus increasingly concerned with
 a growing community of people, more diverse in their background, skills
 and training than were yesterday's typical users.
 What are the important problems for today? The year 2000? The future?
 What are the solutions to these problems? Present your work at CHI 2000
 and predict the future by helping to make it.

 CHI 2000 invites submissions on the full range of HCI related topics,
 including, but by no means limited to:

        Visions of HCI in the future
        HCI issues with new application areas and user populations
        HCI research and development in Europe
        Forward looking perspectives on HCI
        Analysis, design, and evaluation methods
        HCI and society
        HCI and users with special needs
        Theoretical foundations of HCI
        Devices and displays
        Systems, tools, and interaction techniques
        Critical reviews of HCI work
        Education about HCI
        Case studies and design briefings
        Guidelines and design heuristics

Throughout the conference, we will highlight aspects of the CHI 2000
Conference Theme "The Future is Here":

- Future HCI: explore visions of the future that will challenge us in the
  21st Century
- Beyond the Desktop: discuss, design, and influence the way computing
  moves away from the desktop
- Focus on ubiquitous computing: computers that are everywhere:
  hand-held, worn, embedded in offices, homes, and automobiles
- European HCI: CHI 2000 will focus on Europe's HCI scene

global HCI community. It is sponsored by ACM's Special Interest Group
on Computer-Human Interaction (ACM SIGCHI).

Mentoring support
=================

 Mentoring is a program that pairs submitters who are new to the CHI
community with those who are more experienced and can help them shape
their submissions to more effectively address CHI criteria.  Those who
request mentoring are matched with an experienced member of the CHI
community to provide one-on-one advising on the submission.  For more
information about mentoring, or to submit a request for mentoring through
the Web, see:

http://www.acm.org/sigchi/chi2000/call/volunteers/mentoring.html

Although the official deadline for mentoring requests for several venues
has already passed, we are still accepting requests.
