Short Papers

Short papers are focused and succinct contributions to the research program and are likely to have a smaller scope of contribution than full papers. For example, short papers on applications may not cover the entire iterative design cycle (observation, design, implementation, evaluation, etc.) but may instead go into depth in specific areas. Short papers may not include a discussion of related work that is as broad and complete as that of a submission to the full papers venue

Short papers must be anonymized and no more than 4 pages long, including figures, references, and appendices. Short papers must contain an abstract that is less than 150 words long and clearly states the Paper’s contribution to the topic covered for the conference.

Short papers undergo a rigorous review process, managed by the Program chair and a committee of meta-reviewers. Confidentiality of submissions is maintained during the review process. All rejected submissions will be kept confidential in perpetuity. All submitted materials for accepted submissions will be kept confidential until the start of the conference. Final camera-ready versions of accepted short papers must be accompanied by a signed copyright form.

Accepted Short Papers will be distributed in the conference proceedings.
