Virtual Posters

The award for the best short paper (poster), decided by delegate voting, was won by 'Do You Remember Me? Betty the Conversational Agent' by Collette Curry, J. D. O`Shea, K. Crockett (Manchester Metropolitan University, UK). Congratulations!

Papers accepted as short papers for poster presentation at the conference will be published in the proceedings book as usual.

Although it will obviously not be possible to place posters on display boards in the normal way, we have provided facilities to enable authors of short papers to interact with and obtain feedback from conference delegates.

We have provided a dedicated ‘virtual posters’ area to enable delegates to view an expandable image file for each paper (which replaces the traditional poster), to access the full text of the paper online and to interact with the authors at any time during the conference via a dedicated blog.
A special session of the conference will be devoted to (very) short presentations of their work by all poster authors.
The author of each short paper will also be invited to take part in a one-hour videoconference dedicated to that paper, to enable direct face-to-face discussion with interested delegates. Links to allow delegates to access the short paper videoconferences will be made available in the virtual poster area.
Finally, it is a conference tradition to vote for the best poster award and an online voting form has been made available to all registered delegates in the virtual posters area. In order to vote you will need the last five digits of your ten-digit order number. (You can find this in the Order Summary section of the Order Confirmation email you should have received from noreply@order.eventbrite.com when you registered.)
Closing date for voting - extended to Wednesday December 23rd at 5 p.m.
