- FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS
-
- COLLABORATIVE COMPUTING
- =======================
-
- A New Journal From Chapman and Hall
-
-
- Edited by:
- Steve Benford, University of Nottingham, UK
- Hiroshi Ishii, NTT, Japan
- Simon Kaplan, University of Illinois, USA
- Tom Rodden, University of Lancaster, UK

-
- Aims and Scope
- --------------
-
- The integration of computing and telecommunications promises to
- revolutionize the fundamental human process of collaboration. The new
- quarterly journal of Collaborative Computing is an international journal
- which covers the areas of group work, collaborative systems,
- telecommunications, computing and distributed systems thereby
- providing a forum for exchange of information and experiences for those
- involved in this revolution.
-
- The journal will publish innovative research in Computer Supported
- Cooperative Work (CSCW), Groupware and Computer Mediated
- Communications (CMC), with particular emphasis on the development of
- computer and communication technologies to support group work. It
- will be concerned with the design of cooperative systems and
- Groupware; experiences with the use of such systems; and advances in
- group support technologies. Areas of particular interest will include:
-
- * reports of new CSCW systems and Groupware;
-
- * architectures and environments for CSCW;
-
- * the application of distributed systems technologies and
- approaches such as Open Distributed Processing (ODP) and
- OSI to CSCW;
-
- * the theoretical basis of CSCW
-
- * models of collaboration;
-
- * user interface tools and techniques for collaboration
- (e.g. Virtual Reality).
-
- * evaluation of and experiences with CSCW systems;
-
- * the relationship between CSCW and standards;
-
- * the use of multi-media technologies in CSCW
-
- * the process of design of CSCW systems
-
- * the relationship between social and psychological theories
- of interaction and computational models.
-
- The journal will encourage contributions from a wide range of
- disciplines including computer science, social sciences, HCI, business
- and management and information science. Particular emphasis will be
- placed on inter-disciplinary approaches towards the development of
- collaborative systems.
-
- In addition to research papers, the journal will review CSCW products,
- conferences and projects. It will also provide a forum for informing
- readers of developments within the research community including new
- initiatives, laboratory reports and interviews with leading
- researchers.
