CONFERENCE THEME
The 2009 conference theme is Design: Open 24/7. Accessibility, inclusivity and dissolving boundaries are core to the Open 24/7 theme for the design of human interaction with and through digital technologies. The integration of digital technologies into our everyday life allows for a seamless transitioning between open and closed, work and leisure, public and private. Open implies participation and collaboration across traditional borders between individuals, organisations and disciplines. OZCHI 2009 provides a forum to discuss all aspects of openness, open borders, open participation, open source and open architecture. Theme-related submissions may address these topics:
.. Open always-on real-time ubiquitous and pervasive designs
.. Open design and universality versus situatedness, contextualisation and personalisation
.. Open source for design – design for open source
.. Open mind – new ideas, concepts and approaches from outside HCI
.. Beyond open – never closed: design for escapism
CONFERENCE TOPICS
Submissions in all areas of HCI are encouraged. In addition, we particularly invite authors to address any of the following topics: Augmented Reality | Context and Location Awareness | Education and HCI | Health Care and HCI | Innovative Design Methodologies | Smart Service Delivery | Sustainability | Universal Usability and Accessibility | Urban Informatics | Tangible User Interfaces | Visualisation Techniques | Working across Cultures
SUBMISSIONS
All submissions must be written in English. Both long and short papers will undergo a double blind review process by an international panel and evaluated on the basis of their significance, originality, and clarity of writing. Accepted long papers and short papers will be available in the published proceedings. At least one author of any accepted submission must register and attend the conference and present the paper for publication in the proceedings. All submissions must use the two column OZCHI proceedings template: http://www.ozchi.org/mediawiki/ozchipaper_template2009.doc and be submitted to the conference submission site: http://precisionconference.com/~ozchi

SHORT PAPERS
Short length papers, up to 4 pages, should present ideas that could benefit from discussion with members of the HCI community. These papers may include work-in-progress, experiences of reflective practitioners, and first drafts of novel concepts and approaches.

INDUSTRY CASE STUDIES
Industry Case Studies demonstrate how user experience professionals have applied human-computer interaction to create practical solutions to commercial situations. Presentations may include areas such as: challenges faced in implementing methods and techniques; development of new or improved techniques; or incorporating usability into an organisation. Submissions should contain:
1. A 250 word summary for the conference program including: the issue addressed; what will be presented; and relevance to the HCI community.
2. A proposal outlining the presentation and the rationale behind it, including:
◦ Session title
◦ Presenter(s) name and organisation
◦ A brief background of the presenter(s) and organisation
◦ The business problem addressed
◦ The approach and/or solution
◦ Challenges and issues that emerged throughout the project
◦ Benefits and limitations
◦ If applicable, how a similar approach or solution could be used in other contexts
◦ Relevance of the case study to other HCI professionals
◦ Technical requirements for delivering the presentation
Submit Industry Case Studies by email to: industry@ozchi.org

DEMOS & POSTERS
Demonstrations and posters provide an attractive way to showcase real outcomes of human-computer interaction research and development. These sessions offer a platform to share ideas, concepts and work-in-progress face-to-face with the OZCHI community in a way that a paper presentation cannot. Proposals for demos and posters should be submitted on 2 pages using the OZCHI proceedings template, and sent to demos@ozchi.org

DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM
The Doctoral Consortium is scheduled prior to the main conference program on 23 Nov 2009. The Doctoral Consortium offers PhD students a special forum where they can present, discuss and progress their research plans with peers and established senior researchers. PhD candidates wishing to attend the consortium should submit a 2 page research proposal following the OZCHI Proceedings template and submitted via email to dc@ozchi.org. Positions at the consortium will be offered based on a review of the submitted proposals.

24 HOUR DESIGN CHALLENGE
This year OZCHI will be preceded by a student design challenge in two rounds organised as two 24 hour events. The first round takes place online on 12 September 2009, 8am (AEST). The second round will be held at OZCHI on 24 November 2009. In both rounds teams of 2-5 students are invited to develop a solution for a state-of-the-art research problem acquiring interaction design and HCI skills. Top entries will be awarded a travel scholarship for the conference (round 1) and prizes sponsored by our industry partners (round 2). For more information visit http://www.ozchi.org/24

VOLUNTEERS
http://www.ozchi.org/mediawiki/index.php/VOLUNTEERS
OZCHI actively encourages students to volunteer at the conference. Being a student volunteer is a great way to support the HCI community, meet other students in the field, and attend the premier HCI conference Australia. You will help the conference organisers with the running of the conference and support the setting-up of presentations and workshops. You will see the latest in HCI, and have fun while learning about running the conference. In return, you will get free registration. To apply, email volunteers@ozchi.org with your contact details (email, phone, university), an abstract of your research project, a resume, and the reasons why you would like to be a student volunteer. Applications close on 28 Aug 2009.
