The 1997 IUI meeting is the third in a series of gatherings of the intelligent interfaces community. Started in 1988 in Monterey, California, it moved to Orlando, Florida in 1993 for what it turned out to be a very successful event. The series will now become a biennial conference starting in 1997, and will provide a much needed forum for outstanding research and development on intelligent user interfaces.

Scope
We seek high-quality, original papers, panels, and demonstrations that address the theory, design, development, and evaluation of intelligent user interfaces. Suggested topics include (but are not limited to):

• Knowledge-based tools and environments for user interface design and development.
• Intelligent front-ends to interactive, multimedia, hypermedia, or knowledge-based systems.
• Adaptive and customizable user interfaces.
• Intelligent agents and agent-based interaction.
• Architectures for intelligent, cooperative, distributed, and multimodal interfaces.
• Cognitive user modeling.
• Evaluation of intelligent and agent-based interfaces.
• Application-specific designs: intelligent user interfaces for tutoring and advisory systems, medical informatics, planning and explanation, distributed Internet-based systems, information retrieval, computer-supported cooperative work, decision support, etc.

Submissions
Papers are solicited for presentations as talks, interactive posters, or demonstrations. Authors are encouraged to submit work-in-progress to the poster session. Longer papers should highlight both the general scientific contribution of the research and its practical significance.
Panels are solicited that would provide controversial or stimulating debate on any of the topics relevant to the meeting. The positions to be taken by the panelists and the structure of the panel should be clearly specified.
Papers for submission must be formatted using the CHI paper format. Full papers are limited to 8 pages. Short papers (to be presented as interactive poster presentations or demonstrations) are limited to 4 pages, and panels to 6 pages. Videos supporting paper submissions are encouraged, although papers will be judged independently of any accompanying video. Preference will be given to proposals for demonstrations that include a video.
All submissions must be sent to the Program Chair to arrive by July 1st, 1996.
