### Scope ###
Over the last two decades, many organizations and
individuals have relied on electronic collaboration between
distributed teams of humans, computer applications, and/or
autonomous robots to achieve higher productivity and produce
joint products that would have been impossible to develop
without the contributions of multiple collaborators.
Technology has evolved from standalone tools, to open
systems supporting collaboration in multi-organizational
settings, and from general purpose tools to specialized
collaboration grids. Future collaboration solutions that
fully realize the promises of electronic collaboration
require advancements in networking, technology and systems,
user interfaces and interaction paradigms, and inter
operation with application-specific components and tools.
The Ninth International Conference on Collaborative
Computing (CollaborateCom 2013) will continue to serve as a
premier international forum for discussion among academic
and industrial researchers, practitioners, and students
interested in collaborative networking, technology and
systems, and applications.
