ACM Collective Intelligence Conference 2020 - Call for Extended Abstracts

  • 1.  ACM Collective Intelligence Conference 2020 - Call for Extended Abstracts

    Posted 02-02-2020 08:47

    The ACM Collective Intelligence 2020 is the eighth edition of this annual interdisciplinary conference sponsored by SIGCHI dedicated to advancing our understanding of collective intelligence. The conference will take place at Northeastern University in Boston, MA and Copenhagen Business School in Copenhagen, Denmark on June 18-19, 2020. 


    We are happy to announce that CI 2020 will pioneer a multi-site conference format, with the conference occurring at two locations simultaneously: Boston, Massachusetts, and Copenhagen, Denmark. Presenters can choose which site they want to attend, and all plenary and breakout sessions in each site will be available for viewing and question-asking from the other site. Additional cross-site activities will be arranged at breaks and in special sessions. We expect this multi-site format to reduce the conference's carbon footprint and to increase the number of people who can attend.

    Submissions are 3 pages of text plus 1 page for references. All submissions must indicate whether the authors plan to present their work at the Boston site or at the Copenhagen site.  You are encouraged to include a graphical abstract in the submission. Note that some research or practice papers may be assigned as posters, depending on the number of submissions and room capacity of the venue. 

    Proceedings. CI'2020 does not publish archival proceedings of submissions (i.e., not published on ACM Digital Library). However, we plan to post a "book of abstracts" on the CI'20 website to make submissions available to other participants and to spur interaction.
