Tenth International Conference on Cooperative Information Systems (CoopIS 2002)
October 30 - November 1, Irvine, California http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf/coopis/2002
Proceedings to be published by IEEE Press
The Cooperative Information System (CIS) paradigm has been growing and gaining substantial importance in technological infrastructure (e.g., middleware and Web technologies) and application areas (e.g., e-Commerce, e-Government, virtual enterprises). CoopIS is the leading conference for researchers and practitioners in CIS. CoopIS brings together researchers from a variety of disciplines such as collaborative work, Internet data management, electronic commerce, human-computer interaction, agent technologies, and software architectures. We encourage papers that emphasize cooperation across multiple areas.
CoopIS 2002 is a joint event with two other conferences organized within the global theme "On the Move to meaningful Internet Systems 2002: Distributed Object and Applications (DOA) and Ontologies, Databases and Applications of Semantics (ODBASE). All three events will be hosted in Irvine during the week October 28 - November 1, 2002. More details about the federated event can be found at http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf.
The CoopIS 2002 has the theme Cooperation in Ubiquitous Computing. We see an increasing number of computing systems and devices connected everywhere. The central issue in this vision is the need for these computing systems and devices to cooperate. We are particularly interested in contributions that relate to the issue of cooperation everywhere. Of course, submissions on all topics related to cooperative information systems are encouraged, including (but not limited to) the following:
* Software and information services for CIS Web information systems and services Middleware technologies, mediators, and wrappers Interoperability, XML, semantic interoperability Multi-databases and workflow Mobile and wireless systems and protocols Ubiquitous computing environments and tools Human-Computer Interactions Security, privacy, trust, and quality of information
* Agent technologies, systems and architectures for CIS Markets, auctions, exchanges, and coalitions Negotiation protocols, matchmaking, and brokering Multi-agents and agent societies Self-organizing systems, service description Learning, perception, and actions in agents Distributed problem solving, peer-to-peer cooperation
* CIS applications and modeling E-commerce, e-government, supply chain Use of information in organizations Computer-supported cooperative work Enterprise knowledge management Data and knowledge modeling
PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
All submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of expression. All submissions must be in English. Research submissions must not exceed 8,000 words. Submissions can either be in Postscript, MS Word, or Pdf format and should be done through the following URL
http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf/submit.html
The final proceedings will be published by IEEE Press. Failure to commit to presentation at the conference automatically excludes a paper from the proceedings.
