We are excited to announce the Cognitive Load and In-Vehicle Human-Machine Interaction workshop to be held at AutomotiveUI 2011 in Salzburg, Austria.

Interactions with in-vehicle electronic devices can interfere with the primary task of driving. The concept of cognitive load helps us understand the extent to which these interactions interfere with the driving task and how this interference can be mitigated. While research results on in-vehicle cognitive load are frequently presented at automotive research conferences and in related journals, so far no dedicated forum is available for focused discussions on this topic. This workshop aims to fill that void.

We invite you to view our call for papers, and we hope that you will consider joining us in Salzburg on November 30, 2011.

Cheers,
Andrew, Peter H., Tim, Tom, Paul, Ivan, Peter F., Bryan, Shamsi and Dagmar
