[ecrea] CFP: CSCW 2014, Papers due May 31st

CALL FOR PAPERS, COMPUTER-SUPPORTED COOPERATIVE WORK AND SOCIAL 
COMPUTING 2014 (CSCW 2014)
Baltimore, MD, Feb 15-19, 2014
http://cscw.acm.org

CSCW is an international and interdisciplinary conference focused on how 
technology intersects with social practices. To support diverse and 
high-quality contributions, CSCW employs a two-phase review process and 
does not impose an arbitrary length limit on submissions.

IMPORTANT DATES
* May 31, 5:00pm PDT, 2013: Submission due
* July 6: First-round notification (Revise & Resubmit or Reject)
* July 26, 5:00pm PDT: Revised papers due
* August 23: Final notifications


We invite submissions that detail existing practices or inform the 
design or deployment of systems or introduce novel systems, interaction 
techniques, or algorithms. The scope of CSCW includes, but is not 
limited to, social computing and social media, technologically-enabled 
or enhanced communication, education technologies, crowdsourcing, 
multi-user input technologies, collaboration, information sharing, and 
coordination. It includes socio-technical activities at work, in the 
home, in education, in healthcare, in the arts, for socializing and for 
entertainment. New results or new ways of thinking about, studying or 
supporting shared activities can be in these and related areas:

- Social and crowd computing. Studies, theories, designs, mechanisms, 
systems, and/or infrastructures addressing social media, social 
networking, user-generated content, wikis, blogs, online gaming, 
crowdsourcing, collective intelligence, virtual worlds, collaborative 
information seeking, etc.
- System design. Hardware, architectures, infrastructures, interaction 
design, technical foundations, algorithms, and/or toolkits that enable 
the building of new social and collaborative systems and experiences.
- Theories and models. Critical analysis or organizing theory with clear 
relevance to the design or study of social and collaborative systems.
- Empirical investigations. Findings, guidelines, and/or ethnographic 
studies relating to technologies, practices, or use of communication, 
collaboration, and social technologies.
- Methodologies and tools. Novel methods or combinations of approaches 
and tools used in building systems or studying their use.
- Domain-specific social and collaborative applications. Including for 
healthcare, transportation, gaming (for enjoyment or productivity), 
ICT4D, sustainability, education, accessibility, collective 
intelligence, global collaboration, or other domains.
- Collaboration systems based on emerging technologies. Mobile and 
ubiquitous computing, game engines, virtual worlds, multi-touch 
technologies, novel display technologies, vision and gesture recognition 
systems, big data infrastructures, MOOCs, crowd labor markets, SNSes, 
sensor-based environments, etc.
- Crossing boundaries. Studies, prototypes, or other investigations that 
explore interactions across disciplines, distance, languages, 
generations, and cultures, to help better understand how to transcend 
social, temporal, and/or spatial boundaries.

Papers should detail original research contributions. Papers must report 
new research results that represent a contribution to the field. They 
must provide sufficient details and support for their results and 
conclusions. They must cite relevant published research or experience, 
highlight novel aspects of the submission, and identify the most 
significant contributions. Evaluation is on the basis of originality, 
significance, quality of research, quality of writing, and contribution 
to conference program diversity.


SUBMISSIONS
Paper submissions must be made via the Precision Conference System. A 
link to the submission site will be made available by early May.

Papers will be presented at the CSCW conference and will be included in 
the conference proceedings archived in the ACM Digital Library.
CSCW does not accept submissions that were published previously in 
formally reviewed publications or that are currently submitted elsewhere.

Send queries about Paper submissions to (papers2014 /at/ cscw.acm.org).
