- FINAL VERSION: April 29, 2013
Short papers may address any of the areas identified in the conference topics. They must report original work that has not been previously published. Authors are encouraged to demonstrate work in progress and late-breaking research results that show the latest innovative ideas. We invite presentation of ongoing work and preliminary results, by experienced academics as well as young researchers and designers. Short papers are not expected to include as thorough a literature review as full papers.
At the conference, authors of accepted short papers will participate in a ‘madness’ session, giving a very quick overview of their work. This will be followed by a poster session where they will have the opportunity to speak with attendees about their work.
Short papers should be no more than 4 pages long and in ACM SIG Proceedings format.

Demos are your chance to fully engage IDC attendees at a personal level by letting them see, touch, squeeze, hear, or even smell your interactive technology. Demos promote and provoke discussion of the role of technology. We invite contributions from academia, industry, new media, the arts and design.
Demo submissions should be made through 4 page paper in ACM SIG Proceedings format. It should not be anonymous (i.e., it should list the names of the authors and their affiliations). It should describe the novelty and distinguishing ideas of your project, even for readers who will not be able to view the demo at the conference. It should also include a description of the system, installation, or exhibit and the problem it addresses, the group of children it intends to serve, and the relevance of the work to the IDC community. Accepted demos will have this 4 page paper published in the proceedings.
Demos will not undergo a full peer review, however an expert jury will consider each submission.
At the conference, authors of demos will participate in a ‘madness’ session, giving a very quick overview of their work. This will be followed by the demo session where they will have the opportunity to demonstrate their technology.
