CSAC-2004
April 13, 2004 - Porto, Portugal
In conjunction with the Sixth International
Conference on Enterprise 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

is mainly on human activity support and not merely on technical issues. We seek

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.
