The aim of the WUC workshops is to foster transnational research collaborations in ubicomp and interactive systems.
Goals of the workshop:
- Providing students an opportunity to present ongoing research through short talks, posters, and demonstrations and to elicit feedback from an audience of HCI and Ubicomp researchers from both countries with a diversity of perspectives and expertise
- Offering a forum for exploring shared research interests across institutions and labs through a combination of *short*, high-level overview presentations and more in-depth working groups
- Increasing awareness about some of the organizational resources (e.g., UCMEXUS grants and fellowships) that faculty members and students can use to establish new research collaborations between Mexican and American institutions and to seek funding support to expand existing research relationships.
Other goal
The other important goal of the workshop is to provide a informal, relaxing, and fun opportunity for researchers from Southern California and northern Baja California to continue to get to know one another and one another's work. We plan to have several social activities in conjunction with the workshop to strengthen the sense of community across our labs..
