=================================


Interactive Papers will be presented in a special Poster Session where 
researchers will interact directly with conference attendees. The

The major difference from the previous CSCW conferences is that the 
Interactive Papers for CSCW 2011 will be archived in the ACM Digital 
Library. Note that authors still retain copyright of the paper.

Accepted Interactive Papers will be published in the Conference 
Proceedings that will be circulated to attendees at registration.

Interactive Papers Abstract Authoring Tips
=================================
The following tips may help you prepare a successful Interactive Paper:
• State the contribution and originality of your work clearly and 
explicitly: What is the problem? How does your approach help? Why is it 
better than other available approaches?
• Interactive papers may be chosen based on either the significance of 
the problem or the originality of your approach.
• Focus on the contribution of your work rather than the background, 
including just enough background to make clear how your work differs 
from significant prior research.
• Include the major graphical elements that will likely be used in the 
poster itself.

For the poster itself, the UIST Poster Example Gallery includes a 
variety of successful poster designs. More poster guides can be found 
all over the web.
