The 3rd International Conference on Collaborative Computing: Networking,
Applications and Worksharing (CollaborateCom 2007)
Jointly sponsored by IEEE Computer Society, Create-Net and the International
Communication Sciences and Technology Association (ICST)
Crowne Plaza White Plains, New York, USA, November 12-15, 2007
Submission Deadline: July 11th, 2007.
Over the last two decades, many organization and individuals have relied on
electronic collaboration between distributed teams of humans, computer
applications, and/or autonomous robots to achieve higher productivity and
produce joint products that would have been impossible to develop without the
contributions of multiple collaborators. Technology has evolved from standalone
tools, to open systems supporting collaboration in multi-organizational
settings, and form general purpose tools to specialized collaboration grids.
Future collaboration solutions that fully realize the promises of electronic
collaboration requires advancements in networking, technology and systems, user
interfaces and interaction paradigms, and interoperation with application-
specific components and tools.
The Third International Conference on Collaborative Computing (CollaborateCom
2007) will continue to serve as a premier international forum for discussions
among academic and industrial researchers, practitioners, and students
interested in collaborative networking, technology and systems, and
applications.
TOPICS AND AREAS

The conference will be hierarchically structured into 5 areas:
- Collaborative applications
- Networking
- Collaboration technology and systems
- Ubiquitous collaboration
- Interfaces and protocols for team and man-machine collaboration
The vice chairs that we choose to lead these areas will further refine the scope
of the conference.
PAPERS: The conference invites original technical papers that have not been
previously published and are not currently under review for publication
elsewhere. Contributions addressing all areas related to collaborative
networking, technology and systems, and applications are solicited. The
submitted manuscript should closely reflect the final paper as it will
appear in the Proceedings, which will be a maximum of ten pages in IEEE double
column format.
POSTERS: The conference will include a poster session that highlights recent
and
on-going research, experiments, and provocative ideas that have not been
published elsewhere. Poster submissions will be reviewed and one page summaries
of accepted posters will appear in the conference proceedings.
WORKSHOPS: Proposals for workshops are solicited. Potential instructors are
requested to submit a workshop proposal of at most five pages, including a
biographical sketch of each instructor, to the Workshop. Evaluation of workshop
proposals will be based on the expertise and experience of the instructors, and
on the relevance of the subject matter.
PANELS: Proposals for panel discussions that focus on future visions for
collaborative networking, applications, and worksharing are preferred.
Potential
panel organizers should submit a panel proposal of at most five pages,
including
biographical sketches of the proposed panelists, to the Panel Chair.
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: All paper, poster, panel, and workshop submissions
will
be handled electronically. Please visit the conference website
http://www.collaboratecom.org for detailed submission requirements and
procedures.
PUBLICATION: All submitted papers and posters will be rigorously reviewed by
technical program committee members and the reviewers they invite. Accepted
papers and posters will be published by the IEEE in the conference proceedings
and placed on IEEE Xplore. They will also be indexed by DBLP. A selected number
of best papers will be considered for publication in a leading journal.
