[Ieee_vis] CFP: Special Issue on Ubiquitous and Immersive Analytics – MDPI Informatics

[Panagiotis Ritsos]

Dear Colleagues,

Apologies for cross-posting.

We invite you to submit a paper to our Special Issue on "Ubiquitous and Immersive Analytics", in Informatics<https://www.mdpi.com/journal/informatics/>, an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI. (ISSN 2227-9709, indexed by Scopus, ESCI and DBLP).

Our thirst to find new ways to process and make sense of our data grows stronger and stronger. Data are pervading every part of our lives, driving our decision making, our forecasting and in many ways our day-to-day activities. At the same time, the pervasiveness of consumer-grade interfaces such as smartphones and smartwatches have profoundly changed how, when, and where we access and use information. In addition, the recent emergence of affordable interfaces, such as head-mounted displays, has democratized the development of immersive applications, which in the past were often restricted in research laboratories. Interaction paradigms such as mixed and virtual reality, and ubiquitous computing offer many opportunities for presenting data in ways that are specific, timely, and suitable for the context of the decision that needs to be made. As we seek to make use of data-driven decisions more frequently, and in a variety of scenarios, our reliance on omnipresent and in situ data presentations will increase.
Within this theme, this Special Issue seeks contributions that provide an insight into the current state of the art of “Ubiquitous and Immersive Analytics”. Topics include but are not limited to:

  *   Applications, interaction techniques, and evaluation methods for ubiquitous and/or immersive analytics
  *   Libraries, toolkits, and prototyping tools for data-driven XR
  *   Collaborative data-driven immersive and/or ubiquitous visualization environments
  *   Data-driven storytelling in XR and/or in ubiquitous visualization environments
  *   Cross-device communications and techniques for supporting beyond-the-desktop and immersive data exploration and analysis
  *   Multisensory, physical, and tangible data representation

Please visit this page before submitting a manuscript.
Informatics is fully open access. Open access (unlimited and free access by readers) increases publicity and promotes more frequent citations, as indicated by several studies. Open access is supported by the authors and their institutes. The Article Processing Charge (APC)<https://www.mdpi.com/about/apc/> for publication in this open access<https://www.mdpi.com/about/openaccess/> journal is 1000 CHF (Swiss Francs). You may be entitled to a discount if you have previously received a discount code or if your institute is participating in the MDPI Institutional Open Access Program (IOAP), for more information see: http://www.mdpi.com/about/ioap.

We appreciate your consideration and sincerely hope you will accept our invitation to contribute to this special issue.

We look forward to hearing from you.
