    ISL Dialog Tuesday, April 282:30-3:30 p.m. Conf Room: 1500 Speaker:  Ed Chi  Title:  CHI2009 Trip report: An overview of a 2410-person conference  Abstract: 
PARC had a decent showing at the annual CHI2009 conference in Boston, where 2410 people showed up to hear about the latest research in Human- Computer Interaction.  Some highlights include: ASC presented 8 papers at the conference, participated in 2 workshops with papers, and one of our students won 2nd place in the Student Research Competition. Ed Chi chaired the Video Showcase, where an estimated 600-800 showed up to watch 25 four-minute movies in a SIGGRAPH electronic theater- like setting (with popcorn and Oscar-style award presentation). - Paper tracks included significant works on areas such as (1) social computing and social networking site characterization and tool development; (2) ubicomp, mobile and surface computing; (3) Computer Mediated Communication and CSCW research; (4) debate on HCI research methodology and metrics; (5) search tools and desktop interactions.

      2009-05-06 CHI2009 Trip Report
    4. General Impression
      • Lots of students looking for jobs
        • Too much specialization, too narrow
        • Too many iSchools and HCI departments generating students focused on user studies and interaction design
      • Academia looking forward to increased funding
        • NSF and NIH seem both active
      2009-05-06 CHI2009 Trip Report
    5. General Impressions
      • HCI strong institutions are
        • First tier: CMU, Microsoft, MIT, IBM, UW, GaTech
        • Second tier: Cornell , Penn State, Stanford, UCBerkeley
      • Google, Facebook, Yahoo are all largely missing
      • Industry Research Lab reasonably strong, but much more dispersed
        • General nervousness about the future of the economy and industrial research
      2009-05-06 CHI2009 Trip Report
    6. Workshops
      • Sensemaking workshop
      • Social Mediating Technologies: Developing the Research Agenda
      • Interacting with Temporal Data
      2009-05-06 CHI2009 Trip Report
    7. Sensemaking Tools
      • Broadly, issues facing toolmakers can be deal with in four large pieces:
      • SM Phases
      • SM Context
      • SM Scale
      • SM Requirements
      2009-05-06 CHI2009 Trip Report
    8. Top Ten Requirements for SM tools
      • Keeping track of progress / alternatives, provide useful advisement; hypothesis generation; Facilitate refining and shifting – [Data State Model?]
      • stimulate diversity -- Conflict and multiple POV (diversity) management - Balance
      • Help with narratives and deal with confirmation bias
      • Carry rationale / provenance, integrated communication
      • Data and project management are critical
      • Enable building up of synergy between individual and group sensemaking
      • Keep track of confidence in the analysis: Provide trust and evidences of consensus
      • Analyze / Reduce risk of handoff
      • Readiness of revisit: Undo / history, readwear and editwear for state of sensemaking
      • Transparency and explanation of the state of the model
      2009-05-06 CHI2009 Trip Report

    45. Closing Plenary -- Kees Overbeeke
      • Always someone outside the community, often with a design bent.
      • “ Dreaming of the Impossible” focused on a European perspective on design and technology.
        • Design is about people. It is about our lives, our hopes and dreams, our loneliness and joy, our sense of beauty and justice, about the social and the good. It is about being in the world.
        • a primacy of action. In accordance with some theories of knowledge, meaning cannot be detached from action. Meaning is in (inter)action. There is a primacy of embodiment.
      2009-05-06 CHI2009 Trip Report
    46. Kees Overbeeke
        • A design theory consequently must be a theory of action and the embodiment in the first place, and of meaning in the second, and not the other way around. Reflection on action is the source of knowledge.
        • The methods used must be rooted in design practice, in the socio-cultural environment, invigorated by experimental and technological methods from other disciplines.
        • Intuition and common sense should be high on the agenda. They should be exploited to the maximum.
