Information Systems - ICEIS 2004 (http://www.iceis.org/)

This workshop is organized by the Portuguese Chapter of the ACM SIGGROUP, in
cooperation with the School of Technology of Setúbal and INSTICC.

------Workshop Background and Goals:

This workshop intends to be a forum for debate of issues concerning all
kinds of activity coordination, including business process modeling,
workflow, computer supported cooperative work/groupware, e-learning,
e-commerce and other types of organized activities that can benefit from
computer support. The emphasis of this workshop is mainly on human activity
support and not merely on technical issues. We seek papers related to
computer-based systems that support teams or groups in workplace settings,
including the integration of multiple computer-based tools and technologies
and the impact on the social activities supported by those tools and
technologies.
