9729148 The International Community on Audio Displays (ICAD) will be holding its 1997 conference in Palo Alto, California, from November 2-5, 1997. ICAD is a forum for presenting research on the use of sound to display data, monitor systems, and provide enhanced user interfaces for computers and virtual reality systems. The first day of ICAD'97 will be made up of workshops. The purpose of the workshops is to provide an informal setting where a small number of researchers (no more than 20) can have directed, in-depth discussions on singular topics of interest to the ICAD community. A workshop on "sonification" related to representing data through audio has been of considerable interest to many researchers in ICAD. Past efforts have explored ways to listen to discern components of infrared spectra samples, hear trends in seismic data, support programming and debugging, analyze financial data as well as applications in numerous domains including medicine, education and complex systems. Of particular note is the use of sonification in interfaces and applications for people with disabilities -- visual impairments and learning and cognitive disabilities. Sonification can be used to complement or replace visualizations. As a complement, sonification helps to highlight trends in data that are difficult to visualize and to offload the complexity of the visualization. As a replacement, sonification is useful in situations when hands-and-eyes are busy -- such as in a medical operating room -- or when the users are temporarily or permanently visually-impaired. This workshop will allow researchers to assess the current state of sonification research and commercial developments. From this assessment, and sharing of experiences and techniques, the participants can collectively form a research agenda for future efforts. The needed research agenda will be useful to NSF and other organizations and agencies involved in conducting or supporting basic research related to sonification and other audio displays.

9729148国际音频显示器协会（ICAD）将于1997年10月15日至16日在加州的帕洛阿尔托举行会议。 1997年11月2日至5日。 ICAD是一个论坛，用于展示使用声音显示数据，监控系统，并为计算机和虚拟现实系统提供增强的用户界面。 ICAD'97的第一天将由研讨会组成。 讲习班的目的是提供一个非正式的环境，少数研究人员（不超过20人）可以就ICAD社区感兴趣的单一主题进行深入的讨论。 关于通过音频表示数据的“声音化”研讨会引起了ICAD许多研究人员的极大兴趣。 过去的努力已经探索了如何倾听识别红外光谱样本的成分，听到地震数据的趋势，支持编程和调试，分析金融数据以及在包括医学，教育和复杂系统在内的众多领域的应用。 特别值得注意的是在界面和应用程序中为残疾人-视力障碍和学习及认知障碍者-使用发音。 声化可用于补充或替代可视化。 作为一种补充，声化有助于突出显示难以可视化的数据趋势，并减轻可视化的复杂性。 作为一种替代，声波处理在手和眼忙碌的情况下是有用的--比如在医疗手术室里--或者当用户暂时或永久性视力受损时。该研讨会将使研究人员能够评估目前的超声研究和商业发展状况。 通过这种评估，以及经验和技术的交流，参与者可以集体形成一个未来工作的研究议程。 所需的研究议程将是有益的NSF和其他组织和机构参与进行或支持相关的发声和其他音频显示的基础研究。
