[Sighci-l] CfP CSCW 2012: Workshop proposals (July 8); Papers & Notes abstracts (May 27), submissions (June 3)

[N. Sadat Shami]

The ACM Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work is a premier
venue for presenting research in the design and use of technologies
that affect groups, organizations, and communities. CSCW encompasses
both the technical and social challenges encountered when supporting
collaboration. The development and application of new technologies
continues to enable new ways of working together and coordinating
activities. Although work is an area of focus, CSCW embraces research
and technologies supporting a wide range of recreational and social
activities using a diverse range of devices. The conference brings
together top researchers and practitioners from academia and industry
who are interested in both technical and social aspects of
collaboration.

CSCW 2012 will be held February 11-15, 2012, in Seattle, Washington, USA.

CSCW Workshops provide an opportunity to discuss and explore emerging
areas of CSCW research with a group of like-minded researchers and
practitioners from industry and academia. Workshops may focus on any
aspect of CSCW theory or practice, established concerns or new ideas.
However, radical new ideas expected to draw a sufficient number of
participants are very much encouraged! The goal of a workshop is to
share understandings and experiences, to foster research communities,
to learn from each other and to envision future directions. For
examples of workshop topics from the last two conferences, please
review the CSCW 2010 and CSCW 2011 Workshop Programs.

The deadline for Workshop proposals is July 8.

As previously announced, the deadline for Papers (10 pages) & Notes (4
pages) submissions is June 3; please note that titles and abstracts of
Papers & Notes are requested by May 27 (this Friday), and that a link
to the submission site is available on the Papers & Notes page.
The complete Call for Participation, including information about
Papers & Notes, Workshops, CSCW Horizon, Demonstrations, Panels,
Posters, Videos, the Doctoral Colloquium, and Student Volunteers - as
well as Papers and Notes - can be found at cscw2012.org. You can also
