News Category: service

• Hot Author Awards 2011-01-19
  Some achievement awards are now listed next to hot authors.
• New Author Facet Behavior 2010-06-02
  Previously, options in the author facet used a broad limit to refine the results: the author name was truncated to just the last name and the first initial, and a wildcard was used to match all authots with the same last name and first initial. For common combinations, Lee, J, Liu, Y, Kim, J, Lee, S, and even Smith, J, there was no way to narrow the search to a particular author. Now the authors in the menus result in limits to the exact author.
• Quotations 2009-12-17
  Links to pages of HCI-related quotations have been added to the HCI Webliography.
• Conference Proceedings and Journal Volume Meta Data 2009-12-02
  Tables of Contents now show more information about conference proceedings and journal volumes, including editors, number of papers, number of pages, publishers, and standard numbers. For conferences, the theme, dates, and location are shown, if available.
• New Events Calendar 2009-06-28
  An events calendar will provide links to conference web sites as well as published proceedings.

• Detailed Conference Dates 2011-03-06
  Conference paper records now include the date of the first day of the conference so that when records are ordered by date, the order more closely corresponds to when the papers were presented. There are no plans to do the same with journal articles, although issue number (reversed) might be used as a sorting field.

  Several new ACM conferences were added to the HCI Bibliography:

  • AVI: Advanced Visual Interfaces
  • CHINZ: CHI New Zealand
  • DocEng: Document Engineering

  Incidentally, although it might not be correct in all languages, all diacritics (like é) are indexed and searched as the same letter without any accent (like e).
