Context-Aware Mobile Media and Mobile Social Networks

Workshop in MobileHCI 2009 conference, September 15th Bonn, Germany

Update: Extended Submission Deadline: 15.5.

Scope of the Workshop

Context-awareness is becoming an important feature of mobile technology, and with advances in technology development, new application and service concepts are being developed and demonstrated in an ever-increasing manner. Although the most typical examples of context-awareness are still concepts that concentrate on an individual user and his/her interaction with the device, context-awareness also has great potential in enhancing social networks, and facilitating collaboration and other social interactions. Moreover, social networks can also be exploited as contextual information source. This workshop invites submissions on HCI aspects of context-aware mobile technology and social networks. The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to present their insights and research on new concepts, interaction design for mobile context-awareness, usability challenges, collaborative context-aware services and applications for supporting social network and other topics related to HCI with mobile context-aware technology.

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Novel mobile application and service concepts that utilize information about, or facilitate the awareness of, a social network and its state
  • Novel application and service concepts related to context-aware mobile media that involve interaction between people
  • User studies on social context-aware mobile applications
  • Studies on the usability and interaction design of context-aware multimedia applications
  • Privacy and other social aspects of context-aware mobile applications
  • Mobile application concepts that utilized distributed context-recognition

The social networks that are utilized can consist of various different kinds of social groups – for instance family, colleagues, currently present people, or a virtual community. As the workshop is targeted to MobileHCI community, the submissions should highlight HCI related perspective rather than technical aspects.
