CRIWG 2009
15th Collaboration Researchers’
International Workshop on Groupware
September 13-17, Peso da Régua, Douro, Portugal
The Collaboration Research International Workshop on Groupware (CRIWG) seeks scientific and engineering papers that inform the design, development, deployment, and use of groupware and the work practices they support. Founded in 1995, CRIWG has become a significant forum for academic researchers and professionals to exchange ideas and experiences about problems and solutions related to group technology.
Most challenges in the groupware field require a multidisciplinary, multi-methodological approach. CRIWG seeks papers on groupware from a wide variety of academic perspectives and epistemologies, ranging from collaborative and exploratory research, to theory building and testing, applied research, engineering, and innovative evaluation methods. Researchers can report their ideas, theories, models, designs and experimental results to CRIWG either by submitting full paper contributions, in case of mature works, and shorter papers reporting innovative work in progress. As in previous years, the authors of the best papers will be invited to submit extended versions to selected journals. PhD students are invited to present their research in the doctoral colloquium.
The CRIWG 2009 workshop follows the success of the previous international CRIWG events held in USA, (Omaha) in 2008, Argentina (Bariloche) in 2007, Spain (Medina del Campo) in 2006, Brazil (Porto de Galinhas) in 2005, Costa Rica (San Carlos) in 2004, France (Autrans) in 2003, Chile (La Serena) in 2002, Germany (Darmstadt) in 2001, Portugal (Madeira Island) in 2000, Mexico (Cancun) in 1999, Brazil (Buzios) in 1998, Spain (El Escorial) in 1997, Chile (Puerto Varas) in 1996, and Portugal (Lisbon) in 1995.
The CRIWG workshop is supported by the Collaboration Research International Working group on Groupware, an open community of researchers. Traditionally, CRIWG is organized in remote places alternating between the Americas and Europe, with a small number of presentations, fostering critical discussion, team building and collaboration. The location selected for the CRIWG 2009 workshop is Peso da Régua, Douro, Portugal. The University of Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro will organize the workshop.
