Our focus is to improve the interaction between humans and<br>machines, by leveraging both more traditional HCI approaches, as well as<br>solutions that involve state-of-the art AI techniques such as machine<br>learning, natural language processing, data mining, knowledge<br>representation and reasoning. ACM IUI welcomes contribution from any<br>relevant arena: academia, business, or non-profit organizations.<br><br>The conference brings together people from academia, industry and<br>non-profit organizations and gives its participants the opportunity to present<br>and see cutting-edge IUI work in a focused and interactive setting. It is large<br>enough to be diverse and lively, but small enough to allow for extensive<br>interaction among attendees and easy attendance to the events that the<br>conference offers, ranging from oral paper presentations, poster sessions,<br>workshops, panels and doctoral consortium for graduate students. <br><br>The 22nd edition of the conference will be held in Limassol, Cyprus.<br></font><font face='Lucida Grande' color='#323133'>Limassol (or Lemesos) is a multicultural bustling town, flanked by two<br>ancient cities, Amathus and Kourion, and guarded by the Amathusian<br>Aphrodite and Appolo Hylates. It is a town of great visual diversity and<br>contrast from spectacular seafront views, historic places like the mediaeval<br>Castle, and Byzantine churches. </font><font face='Lucida Grande' color='#363739'>Along the 17 km long sandy beaches, two<br>Marinas, world renowned 5 star hotels, and a most exciting dining, shopping,<br>nightlife and yachting scene create a year-round vibrant lifestyle well beyond<br>the expectations of a Mediterranean island.<br></font><font face='Lucida Grande'><br>The conference venue is the well known 5* beach hotel St. Raphael Resort,<br>situated on one of the largest Blue Flag accredited beaches, only a short<br>coastal drive from the lively centre of town, approximately 10 minutes away<br>(<a href="http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=c2NlLmNhcmxldG9uLmNhICwJCQlmZy1hcmNAbGlzdHMudW5pLXBhZGVyYm9ybi5kZQkyMm5kIEFDTSBJbnRlcm5hdGlvbmFsIENvbmZlcmVuY2Ugb24gSW50ZWxsaWdlbnQgVXNlciBJbnRlcmZhY2VzIChJVUkgMjAxNyk6IENhbGwgZm9yIFBhcnRpY2lwYXRpb24JMjIJTGlzdHMJMTg1CWNsaWNrCXllcwlubw==&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.raphael.com.cy%29.">http://www.raphael.com.cy).</a> The Larnaca International Airport is 35 minutes<br>away, and Paphos International Airport is 55 minutes away.
