Date: January 4, 2017 (Wednesday) Time: Afternoon, 1:10pm - 4:10pm URL: http://hicss.hawaii.edu/swt/software-development/

The goal of this symposium is to crystallize the emerging computing technologies and trends into positive efforts to focus in smart toys such as Hello Barbie, Google Toy, and CogniToys Smart Dinosaur. This symposium will provide clear proof that computing technologies are playing an ever increasing important and critical role in supporting smart toys, which is a new research discipline in computer science and information systems. It is also expected that this symposium will further research new best practices and directions in toy computing. The goal of this symposium is to bring together academics and practitioners to describe the use and synergy in computing in smart toys.
