ICAD 2003 (July in Boston) Call for Papers



--- PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS------------------

ICAD 2003
The 9th International Conference on Auditory Display
Boston University, Boston, MA
7 - 9 July 2003
http://www.cns.bu.edu/~ICAD2003
email: ICAD2003@cns.bu.edu

ICAD is the premier forum for presenting research on the use of sound
to display information. ICAD is unique in both its breadth
(encompassing all aspects of how sound and audio can be used to
enhance user interfaces, display data, or monitor systems) and depth
(its singular focus on audio). ICAD 2003, like its predecessors, will
be a single-track conference. We invite psychoacousticians,
musicians, engineers, computer scientists, designers, and anyone else
investigating any aspect of auditory display (including technologies
and algorithms, auditory perception and human factors, applications,
and more) to come and participate in an intense, exciting,
interdisciplinary discussion.

--- SUBMISSIONS ----------------------------------

Submissions are sought covering all aspects of auditory display.
Example topics include, but are not limited to:
* auditory display in assistive technology
* auditory display in consumer products
* auditory icons and earcons
* psychoacoustics and perception
* sonification
* sound design and aesthetics
* sound synthesis and signal processing
* spatial auditory displays

SUBMISSIONS DEADLINE 31 January 2003

- Oral and poster presentations. A four-page full paper submission is
required for all presentations, whether invited or contributed.
Authors may specify their preference for oral or poster presentation.

- Auditory display demonstrations. Interested parties should submit a
two-page description of their proposed demonstration. (NOTE:
Participants are expected to provide their own equipment/computers)

All submissions will be peer-reviewed by an international committee
of experts. Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings and
online.

Further information about submissions, conference schedule, invited
speakers, social programs, registration, etc. will be posted on the
ICAD 2003 web site as available: http://www.cns.bu.edu/~ICAD2003.
