On Friday, we will send out instructions explaining how to join the conference to everyone who registered. We’re looking forward to VL/HCC next week!


We are delighted to announce the keynote speakers for VL/HCC 2021! Dr. Denae Ford Robinson, from Microsoft Research, will be presenting the opening keynote: The Next Generation of Software Developers. Prof. Mark Guzdial, from the University of Michigan, will be presenting the closing keynote: Changing Computing To Make It “For All”.


We have extended the deadline for research paper submission by one week! The deadline is now May 7.


The safety and well-being of all conference participants is our priority. After evaluating the ongoing COVID-19 situation, the decision has been made to transform the in-person component of the IEEE VL/HCC 2021 conference into an all-digital conference experience – IEEE VL/HCC 2021 will now be an online event. Therefore, IEEE VL/HCC 2021 will no longer take place in St. Louis MO and will instead take place virtually. The conference dates remain the same – October 10-13, 2021. Proceedings will not be cancelled, and publications will continue as planned. For questions, contact ckelleher@wustl.edu.
