SBSC 2007 - IV Brazilian Symposium on Collaborative Systems
Call for Papers
Rio de Janeiro-RJ, July 3-5, 2007
http://www.sbc.org.br/sbc2007
The SBSC is the main Brazilian event on the development and use of collaborative systems. Collaborative systems are largely used by groups, organizations, communities, and are also widespread in society in general.
E-mail, chat, instant messaging, videoconference, blogs, file sharing, cooperative editors, workflow, shared agenda and "social network service"
sites are some well known examples of collaborative systems.
This research area is interdisciplinary and provides support for the development of computational systems for collaboration. Examples of related areas are software engineering, database systems, artificial intelligence, information systems, human-computer interaction, multimedia systems and distributed systems.
Since the approval of the Collaborative Systems Special Commission (CESC) by the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) in 2005 (http://www.sbc.org.br/index.php?language=1&subject=437), the event is called Brazilian Symposium on Collaborative Systems. Before that, the event was called Brazilian Workshop of Technologies for Collaboration (WCSCW). The event already took place in Natal (SBSC 2006), Juiz de Fora (WCSCW 2005), Ribeirão Preto (WCSCW 2004) and Salvador (as a CSCW Track in the WebMídia 2003).
The deadlines for papers submission are:
Submission deadline: 01/03/2007
Notification of acceptance: 18/04/2007
Camera ready papers: 27/04/2007
SBSC 2007: 03 a 05/07/2007
The topics of interest of SBSC 2007 include, but are not limited to:
Collaborative adaptive environments
Collaborative virtual environments
Interactions and discourse analysis
Computer Supported Collaborative Learning Architectures, frameworks, components and middleware for collaborative systems Social aspects of a workgroup Evaluation of collaborative systems Collaboration in games and digital entertainment Computer mediated communication Context and awareness in collaborative systems Development of collaborative systems Experimental software engineering Case studies of adoption and acceptance of collaborative systems Ethnography and action-research in work groups Knowledge and competency management Virtual groups and communities Artificial Intelligence in collaboration support Group memory Methods for the investigation of collaboration Mobility in collaborative systems Collaborative systems in software development Distributed Systems and P2P applied to collaborative systems Multi-agent systems for collaboration Meetingware, negotiation and decision support Telepresence Theories and models of collaboration Workflow management and coordination
The articles should be written either in English or in Portuguese for electronic submission in PDF via the JEMS/SBC
(https://submisssoes.sbc.org.br) site. The text must follow the SBC model for article publication
(http://www.sbc.org.br/index.php?subject=60&content=dowloads) and must have at the most 14 pages, including author's name and affiliation.
Articles that present case studies and evaluation of the results will be preferred. The best articles will be conditionally selected for publication, in an extended version, in a special issue of the Scientia magazine (http://www.unisinos.br/publicacoes_cientificas/scientia).
Papers must not be submitted simultaneously to another conference or to publication in a Journal, nor should they have already been published elsewhere. The acceptance of a paper implies that at least one of the authors will register for the conference and thus present the paper.
