TouchTokens

TouchTokens are a means to design low-cost tangible interfaces. The technique consists in recognizing multi-touch patterns associated with specific passive tokens that can be made out of any material, when manipulated on any touch-sensitive surface. Implementations of the recognizer (in both TUIO and Android) and vector descriptions of the tokens ready for 3D-printing or laser-cutting are available. Implementations of the recognizer are under the LGPL license.
SwingStates

SwingStates is an extension of the Java Swing toolkit to ease the programming of advanced interaction techniques. SwingStates introduces state machines in the Java language as a control structure to program interaction. State machines can be used with standard Swing widgets to redefine their behavior, or they can be used with the SwingStates powerful canvas to implement advanced interaction techniques. SwingStates is available under the LGPL license (about 13000 lines of code). It is used for teaching Human Computer Interaction at Université Paris-Sud (Licence and Master).
Touchstone

Touchstone is a tool for conducting lab experiments. The design platform allows to define an experiment protocol by exploring different alternatives. It outputs the final protocol as an XML experiment script which refers to experiment components. The run platform allows (i) to program these experiment components as Java classes and (ii) to run the experiment script. TouchStone is available under the BSD license (about 21000 lines of code).
Stroke Shortcuts Toolkit

Stroke Shortcuts Toolkit (SST) is a library to add stroke shortcuts to a Java Swing graphical user interface. It includes (i) the Design Shortcuts environment to define the mappings (stroke, command) for commands of Java Swing applications and (ii) a very simple API to activate these shortcuts in the application. The designer can decide to offer several types of visual clues to make end users able to learn these shortcuts (augmented tooltips, menu preview or strokes sheet). SST also provides an API to easily implement any stroke based interaction by offering high-level events and ways of handling these events (listeners or state machines). SST is available under the LGPL license (about 3000 lines of code).
FlowStates

FlowStates is a toolkit to program advanced interaction techniques which require non standard input (e.g., two different mice that act independently, a joystick, a tablet, etc.). It is built on top of two existing toolkits: SwingStates and ICon. With FlowStates the developer can program interaction logic using state machines like SwingStates does but does not restrict the set of possible input channels to Java AWT standard input (a single couple ). FlowStates offers a a huge power of expression by fully integrating two models for programming interaction (state machines and data flow). FlowStates is available here (about 1500 lines of code).

Program committees

In the field of Human-Computer Interaction, conferences are considered the primary method of publication. The ACM CHI and UIST conferences are particularly selective (selection rate ranges from 15-25%) and are considered journal level work by the ACM/SIGCHI. Papers have at least five independent reviews, including two senior associate chairs, with a face-to-face program committee and a rebuttal process.

ACM CHI is the flagship conference of our domain. The two Technical Program co-chairs manage the whole set of technical tracks (14 tracks in 2022). The main papers track receive more than 2500 submissions per year. The overall papers submission process is chaired by 2 to 3 papers co-chairs. Submissions are then distributed across ~15 subcommittees that handle between 100 and 400 papers each. A subcommittee is usually chaired by 2 subcommittee co-chairs.
