:: ECSCW 2009 ::
Call for Participation The 11th European Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work (ECSCW) September 7-11, 2009, Vienna, Austria http://www.ecscw09.org
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
The conference is soliciting high quality contributions that report * novel techniques and technologies relevant to CSCW, * empirical studies of work that contribute to the design space of CSCW, * enhancement of the conceptual foundations of CSCW.
In particular, the conference welcomes contributions that focus on: * Comparative analyses of empirical investigations that contribute to a deeper understanding of single application domains of CSCW or aspects of CSCW, which cross different domains * New computer-enabled forms of organisation * Collaboratories and distributed scientific work, including papers, which reflect on CSCW aspects of e-science * The conception, construction and use of CSCW technologies in complex and demanding settings, like manufacturing, healthcare, security, control systems, etc. * The implications of new interaction technologies (pervasive, ubiquitous, handheld ...) for CSCW: empirical research of use, studies of integration with other CSCW technologies and applications * The integration of CSCW technologies with other technologies used to support organisations, such as information systems, production systems, decision support systems, knowledge management systems, etc. * The conception, construction and use of innovative interaction modes for CSCW applications, e.g. interfaces and supportive functionalities, including diverse users, such as impaired users * Architectures supporting CSCW technologies with quality requirements, such as flexibility, tailorability, adaptability, etc.
All contributions will be evaluated in terms of their novelty, significance, quality and enhancement to the field. Accepted contributions will be included in the conference proceedings published by Springer and will be available at http://www.ecscw09.org . They will also be indexed in and available through the ACM digital library.
ECSCW 2009 requires that submissions have not been published previously and that papers submitted are not under simultaneous review for any other conference, journal or other publication.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
:: SUBMISSIONS
All contributions must be rendered anonymous to facilitate blind review, and authors should take care throughout their paper that their own and their institution's identity is not revealed. Relevant references to an author's previous research should not be suppressed but rather should be made impersonally, if they are required for reviewers to understand and evaluate the paper's contribution. All submissions will be handled electronically: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ecscw09
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
:: RESEARCH PAPERS
There are two kinds of research paper contributions: full papers and short papers. Both kinds of contributions must be formatted in strict accordance with the ECSCW formatting instructions (see author kit and paper templates: http://www.ecscw09.org/author.html) and must be submitted in PDF format.
FULL PAPERS Full papers may be up to 20 pages in length. Full papers should present original reports of substantive new work and make clear the novel aspects of the research they present and its contribution to the development of CSCW theory and CSCW systems design.
SHORT PAPERS Short papers may be up to 8 pages in length, and should present substantial although preliminary results of a research activity. They should clearly contain: the goals and the current stage of the research plan, an indication about the original contribution the research makes, preliminary achievements and indication of why they warrant presentation at this stage. Selection will primarily be based on this kind of information.

:: WORKSHOPS AND MASTER CLASSES
Workshops are designed to offer an informal environment for focused group discussion and learning. Workshops may be for half-day or full day sessions.
Workshop proposals should consist of an abstract and a detailed proposal. The abstract should be no more than 150 words. The body of the proposal should be no more than 3000 words, and should include a description of the theme(s) of the workshop, the workshop activities and goals, the duration of the workshop (one or two full days), the background of the organiser(s), the maximum number of participants, and the means of recruiting and selecting participants. We encourage workshop organisers to create web- based resources for their workshops so that advertising, submission and organisation can be handled online.
Accepted workshops will need to provide a short description of the workshop for publication on the conference web site containing the workshop title, names and affiliations of organisers, 150-word abstract, workshop web site, and position paper submission or other participation requirements.
Accepted workshops may optionally provide a 2-page Workshop Programme for printing in the conference supplemental proceedings. The programme should contain the workshop title, 150-word abstract, objectives, participant names and schedule.
Master classes will offer a small number of participants the opportunity to learn about specific CSCW concepts, methods and techniques from recognised experts.
Master classes proposals should be no more than 3000 words, and should include a description of the theme(s) of the master class, the background of the organiser(s) and the maximum number of participants.

:: DEMOS AND VIDEOS
Live demonstrations and videos form an important part of the conference technical programme. Demonstrations of both research prototypes and commercial products by those directly involved in developing the systems are welcomed.
Demos and videos submissions should include an extended abstract of no longer than 2 pages, including all figures and references. It should state the contribution and originality of the work clearly and explicitly, including just enough background to make clear how the work differs from significant prior research. It should describe the required technical equipment.

:: POSTERS
Poster submissions graphically illustrating original CSCW systems, experiences, or applications are invited. Successful posters will be on show for the duration of the conference.
Poster submissions should include an extended abstract of no longer than 2 pages, including all figures and references.
