Workshop themes
*********************
CCCiC is an International Workshop Series addressing issues of design and development of systems to support coordination, communication, and collaboration between informal caregivers, their friends, family members, and health professionals. The first chapter of the series took place at CSCW 2014 in Baltimore and the next edition of the workshop will be held at 2014 ACM Conference on Supporting Groupwork (GROUP 2014) and seeks contributions on:

* Conceptual frameworks that describe the coordinative nature of informal care.
* Integrated platforms that serve all relevant aspects of caregivers’ needs in form of adequate integration of products and services.
* Computer supported learning for informal caregivers.
* Accessible (mobile, tactile) ICT applications that might automate many tasks of general caregiving.
* Social interactive TV, also concerned with the design of innovative input devices.
* Social media for social support, such as online communities with special focus on social support for informal caregivers.
* Knowledge sharing among informal caregivers.
* Interoperability and interfaces among systems in use.
* Architectures of ICT supporting caring processes.
* Scalability and security of such systems.

Contributions are welcomed on the following themes, but not limited to:

* Design and development of technologies to support coordination, communication, and collaboration between informal caregivers, their friends, family members, and health professionals.
* User-centered and participatory design in the context of informal care
* Sustainable technology development.
* Usage studies of current technological solutions for informal caregivers.
* Ethnographic studies and associated challenges (e.g., getting access to the field, collecting and analyzing data, etc.)
* Cross-cultural studies.
* Ethical issues.
* Conceptual work aiming at describing informal care.

We particularly encourage submissions of position papers reporting on research studies currently in the analysis of informal care or in the design and prototyping phases of the development of interactive systems for informal care as well as of demos of existing systems or of video prototypes of innovative technological concepts for it.

Interdisciplinary participation from designers, developers, sociologists, psychologists, ethnographers, etc. is appreciated. In this way, the workshop will provide an important opportunity for researchers from both academia and industry to share ideas and possibly coordinate their efforts.
