Welcome to the 2009 International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI 2009)

The 2009 International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (IUI 2009) is the 13th such meeting since the first international conference in 1997. This series of annual conferences on Intelligent User Interfaces is the principal international forum for the presentation and discussion of outstanding research and applications involving intelligent user interfaces, a field at the intersection of Human Computer Interaction and Artificial Intelligence. As such its focus lies on truly intelligent ideas for improving the human computer interface and in making the computerized world a more amenable place.

With IUI 2009 being held in Florida, we stick to the tradition of trying to find a place to escape winter at least for a few sunny days filled with presentations, workshops, and discussions with colleagues from all over the world.

We thank our supporting sponsors from ACM and a number of corporate sponsors to be announced soon. This website will keep growing within the next few weeks, so we invite you to come back regularly.
