<div><font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">OzCHI is the annual non-profit conference for the Computer-Human Interaction Special Interest Group (CHISIG) of the Human<br />
Factors and Ergonomic Society of Australia and Australia's leading forum for the latest in HCI research and practice. OzCHI<br />
attracts a broad international community of researchers, industry practitioners, academics and students. Participants come<br />
from a range of backgrounds, including interface designers, user experience (UX) practitioners, information architects,<br />
software engineers, human factors experts, information systems analysts and social scientists. </font></div>
<div><font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">After 18 years, OzCHI finally come back to Western Australia. Time has passed and things have changed a lot since OzCHI 2001.<br />
More HCI and UX works have been done in Western Australia as well as its neighbouring countries. Having the privilege to<br />
convene the 2nd OzCHI conference in Western Australia, one of our objectives is to be inclusive towards attendees across<br />
overall Asia-Pacific. </font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">The conference theme is Experience Design in Asia Pacific, which highlights the challenges we all face in the endeavour<br />
to tame the environment without destroying it to ensure our continuing existence. Our vision is to make OzCHI 2019 as<br />
an inclusive event for academic, industry, research, start-ups, maker communities to learn and exchange knowledge in the<br />
recent and emerging HCI and UX areas - practical, technical, empirical and theoretical aspects regardless their level of<br />
maturity in the fields. </font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">We invite contributions on all topics related to Human-Computer Interaction, Interaction Design, Architecture,<br />
Engineering, Planning, Social Science, Creative Industries, and other related disciplines. </font></div>

=============================================================================================================================</font></div>
<div><font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">1. Long papers report on innovative, original, and completed research, which is relevant, significant, and<br />
interesting to the HCI community.<br />
2. Short papers present ideas that are emerging and would benefit from discussion with members of the HCI<br />
community. This type of submission may include work-in-progress, experiences of reflective practitioners,<br />
and first drafts of novel concepts and approaches.<br />
3. Workshops are half-day and full-day sessions on topics that contribute to community building around a<br />
specific HCI topic. Topics may include methods, practices, and other areas of interest and that support<br />
active participation beyond presentation.<br />
4. Doctoral consortium is a full-day intensive session for research students. A panel of experienced HCI<br />
researchers provides advice and guidance.<br />
5. Student Design Challenge is an annual international competition in which students work rapidly researching,<br />
brainstorming and sketching a solution for a real HCI problem. This year the competition took place the 7th<br />
of April and now the submissions are under review, finalists will present their work at the OzCHI 2019 conference.<br />
6. Industry papers provide the opportunity for practitioners and industries for their initiatives or new<br />
developments that could benefit from discussion with members of the HCI community.<br />
7. Work-in-Progress papers are a subset of the long papers track (subject to the same format and deadlines).<br />
Rather than reporting on mature research, they describe work-in-progress, late-breaking and new ideas,<br />
questions, or challenges, and are intended to provoke discussion in the OzCHI community. The accepted<br />
submission will be required to present a poster<br />
8. Demo is a venue for industry, research, startups, maker communities, the arts, and design to present their<br />
hands-on demonstration, share novel interactive technologies, and stage interactive experiences. This venue<br />
promotes and provokes discussion on novel technologies. </font></div>
