Mobile and Breaking News: New Challenges for News Information Visualizations.
- To explore the challenges and opportunities for presenting and interacting with visualizations on mobile devices (smartphones and tablets), focusing on new presentation patterns and gesture controls via touch and other modalities
- To explore the workflow, design and production challenges of creating visualizations for breaking-news, focusing on tools and techniques.
- Understand the differences between traditional visualizations and news visualizations for storytelling
This workshop aims to attract visualization scholars, journalism theorists, journalists, user experience researchers, graphic designers, data scientists, statisticians, and programmers interested in information visualizations for news, as a way to continue the cross-discipline community that has emerged, with a new focus.

Submission and Participation
We are inviting researchers and practitioners to present their research, work practices, case studies, prototypes, and usability studies of visualizations as a part of presenting news. We are soliciting extended abstracts and short papers for presentation during the workshop’s introductory sessions.
The second portion of the workshop will be a hackathon where the attendees will form small teams and create news visualizations, applying team-based creativity and lessons from the presentations. More details about the hackathon will be disclosed shortly.
Also, all registered and interested attendees of IEEE VIS are encouraged to attend the workshop presentations and participate in the hackathon, with a special invitation to members of both general communities (computer scientists and journalism) but also those who work at intersection of these from an academic or professional perspective.
Submission Guidelines
Submissions for papers and extended abstracts for presentation can be 1-3 pages long, with the length of submission appropriate to the contribution. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the workshop organizers.
All submissions should be formatted in the IEEE VIS format style. Use instructions found on this page: http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~vis/Tasks/camera.html. Submissions must be made in PDF.

Because this is, getting excited includes dosing high on a medley to heavy metal at my iPhone: Soundgarden’s “Rusty Dog crate,” Vibrant Purple’s “Highway Star” and Opeth’s “Ghosts to Perdition” provide a soundtrack of power. The line due to trainer Pablo’s low dye strapping services definitely is extensive, that sort of logic just go for a little recording around my ankles, on the outside of unquestionably the sock, to keep your shinguards in place.nn1
