Peer Reviewed Paper Session Details
We offer a peer review of full papers; that is, completed works, not just
a proposal. Authors of accepted papers will be allowed to make small revisions
based on reviewers’ comments. These papers will be in a separate section
of the proceedings, clearly identified as peer-reviewed papers. We will
be highly selective and will choose a limited number of submissions to
ensure we are establishing a premier venue for publications.
We are looking at two major areas:
(1) Methodologies and Tools, including practical new methods, processes
and techniques along with new tools for use in interactive systems or
device design, development, and testing
(2) Results from Fieldwork and Ethnography, including findings, guidelines,
etc. from studies of real world settings or of technology use in such
settings providing a clear relevance to the design and deployment of interactive
systems or devices.
The presentations will be made at a special session dedicated to presentations
from peer-reviewed papers. These presentations must meet the same standards
as all other UPA presentations. For this reason, anyone who submits a
paper for UPA 2004 must also prepare and submit a presentation proposal.
Both the presentation and the paper will be reviewed, independently, and
both must be accepted for UPA to publish the paper.
Presentation submissions accompanying peer-reviewed paper submissions
will be reviewed with minor changes to the review criteria compared
to the criteria used to review regular presentation submissions.
These presentations must meet a minimum set of requirements that
seek to ensure the presentation is not merely a copy and paste
version of the paper into slide format.

to one-half of the presentation time allocated for audience participation.
- Each presentation associated with a peer–reviewed paper will be 40
minutes in length. .
