*** CALL FOR PAPERS *** 1st International Workshop on Negative Results in Pervasive Computing [PerFail] (co-located with PerCom 2022) 21st March 2022; Pisa, Italy https://perfail-workshop.github.io/2022/
Not all research leads to fruitful results, trying new ways or methods may surpass the state of the art, but sometimes the hypothesis is not proven or the improvement is insignificant. But failure to succeed is not failure to progress and this workshop aims to create a platform for sharing insights, experiences, and lessons learned when conducting research in the area of pervasive computing.
While the direct outcome of negative results might not contribute much to the field, the wisdom of hindsight could be a contribution itself, such that other researchers could avoid falling into similar pitfalls. We consider negative results to be studies that are run correctly (in the light of the current state of the art) and in good practice, but fail in terms of proving of the hypothesis or come up with no significance. The “badness” of the work can also come out as a properly but unfittingly designed data collection, or (non-trivial) lapses of hindsight especially in measurement studies.
In this workshop, we invite submissions in different subtopics, including, but not limited to research in the fields of: * Studies with unconvincing results which could not be verified (e.g. due to lack of datasets) * Underperforming experiments due to oversights in system design, inadequate/misconfigured infrastructure, etc. * Research studies with setbacks resulting in lessons learnt and acquired hindsights (e.g. hypothesis with too limiting or too broad assumptions) * Unconventional, abnormal, or controversial results that contradict expectations of the community * Unexpected problems affecting publications, e.g. ethical concerns, institutional policy breaches, etc. * “Non-publishable” or “hard-to-publish” side-outcomes of the study, e.g . mis-trials of experiment methodology/design, preparations for proof-of-correctness of results, etc.
###Submissions### Paper submission will be managed via the EDAS system. The paper should not exceed 6 pages (overall, i.e., including references) in IEEE, 10pt font, 2-column format. For further information and a link to the submission system, please refer to https://perfail-workshop.github.io/2022/.
Each accepted paper must be presented by one of the authors at the workshop. The papers accepted in the workshop will appear and be indexed in the IEEE digital libraries (Xplore). Please note that each accepted paper requires a full PerCom registration.
###Important Dates### * Submission deadline: 14 November 2021 * Notifications: 05 January 2022 * Camera-ready version & registration: 05 February 2022 * Workshop: 21st March 2022
Thanks and Regards
Nitinder Mohan, Ella Peltonen and Peter Zdankin
