************************************************************
We are very pleased to invite you once again to participate in 2010 ACM
International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces.
IUI 2010 is the annual meeting of the intelligent interfaces community
and serves as the principal international forum for reporting
outstanding research and development on intelligent user interfaces.
IUI is where the community of people interested in Human-Computer
Interaction (HCI) meets the Artificial Intelligence (AI) community.
We're also very interested in contributions from related fields, such
as psychology, cognitive science, computer graphics, the arts, etc..

************************************************************
Why submit to IUI?

Unlike traditional AI, our focus is not so much to make the computer
smart all by itself, but to make the interaction between computers and
people smarter. Unlike traditional HCI, we're more willing to consider
solutions that involve large amounts of knowledge, heuristics, and
emerging technologies such as natural language understanding or
gesture recognition.

The IUI conference gives you a chance to present and to see work in an
intimate, focused, no-nonsense event. It is large enough to be diverse
and lively (we expect around 200 people), but small enough to avoid
the circus-like atmosphere of conferences with thousands of people.
The vast majority of the attendees are actively involved with
conceiving and developing cutting-edge interfaces leading to a high
and fast impact of research results presented at IUI. It brings
together people from academics, industry, and nonprofits. As an ACM
conference, papers appear in the ACM Digital Library and citation
indices. There will also be a journal publication path for selected
papers. It's a single track conference, so you don't have to miss
anything. And it's always in a beautiful place!
