SCOPE

Over the last two decades, many organizations 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 from general purpose tools to specialized collaboration grids. Future collaboration solutions that fully realize the promises of electronic collaboration require advancements in networking, technology and systems, user interfaces and interaction paradigms, and interoperation with application-specific components and tools.

The 6th International ICST Conference on Collaborative Computing (CollaborateCom 2010) will continue to serve as a premier international forum for discussion among academic and industrial researchers, practitioners, and students interested in collaborative networking, technology and systems, and applications.

PUBLICATION

All accepted papers will be made available in IEEE Xplore. A special issue on CollaborateCom 2010 will be published in ACM/Springer MOBILE NETWORKS & APPLICATIONS (MONET), pending approval. 4-6 papers on the themes related to MONET will be selected for publication in this issue. Other journal venues are also being pursued.

***

SUBMISSION

We invite original research 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. Submitted papers should be 10 pages in two-column IEEE proceeding format.

All submitted papers and posters will be rigorously reviewed by technical program committee members and the reviewers they invite. All paper, poster, panel, and workshop submissions will be handled electronically. Please visit the conference website www.CollaborateCom.org for detailed submission requirements and procedures.

***

POSTERS

The conference will include a poster session that highlights recent and ongoing 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 half-day or full day workshops that focus on CollaborateCom 2010 related themes are solicited. Workshop proposals should be at most five pages, including a biographical sketch of each instructor, and submitted to the Workshop Chairs. Proposals will be evaluated based on the expertise and experience of the organizers and the relevance and importance 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 Chairs.

***

TUTORIALS

Proposals for full and half-day tutorials are solicited. Tutorials are intended to enhance the technical program, and as such they should be relevant to collaborative computing, networking, worksharing, and applications. Potential tutorial presenters should submit a tutorial proposal of at most three pages, including: description of potential audience and background knowledge expected from the audience, if any; tutorial description; biographical sketch of presenter(s).

***

IMPORTANT DATES

Workshop proposal submission deadline: 1 March 2010
Tutorial proposal submission deadline: 15 April 2010
Paper submission deadline: 28 May 2010
Posters and panel proposal submission deadline: 1 July 2010
Notification of acceptance: 1 August 2010
Camera-ready submission deadline: 15 August 2010
