[Paul Libbrecht]

                   Call for Papers: MathUI'12
              ----------------------------------------
             Mathematical User Interfaces Workshop 2012
              ----------------------------------------
      at the CICM conference, July 11th, Bremen Germany
           http://www.cermat.org/events/MathUI/12/ 

  SCOPE
   
  
  This 6th mathematical user-interfaces workshop is a forum discussing 
  how users can interact mathematically with the representations on a 
  computer, how they can manipulate them to feel their mathematical 
  nature, how knowledge can be communicated through computers.
  
  It happens in the form of a peer-reviewed workshop with presentations
  and discussion, followed by an expo-like demo-session.

  This workshop follows a successful series of meetings held 
  along the Mathematical Knowledge Management conferences with a focus
  on actually experimentable user-intefaces.   
  
  Topics include:
  - presentations on manipulation of mathematical knowledge
  - workflow studies based on mathematical applications
  - user studies on the effectiveness of interfaces
  - interactive teaching and testing
  - novel, original or downright funky interfaces to mathematics software
  - interactive mathematics generally
  
  SUBMISSIONS
  
  We are seeking submissions of either papers on and/or demonstrations
  of user interfaces for mathematics. Videos, prototypes, mock ups and
  any other sort of demonstration are welcome!
  Proceedings will be online.
  
  Submission format: article of 3-8 (printed) pages, in PDF format only,
  which may include other electronic presentations such as videos or
  animations complemented by an abstract of less than 150 words.
  
  Important Dates:
  
  - Submit a paper before or on May 23rd 2012
  - Expect an answer on June 13th 2012
  - Enjoy the workshop on July11th 2012
