CALL FOR PAPERS, COMPUTER-SUPPORTED COOPERATIVE WORK AND SOCIAL
COMPUTING 2017 (CSCW 2017)
http://cscw.acm.org

The 2017 ACM Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work and
Social Computing will be held in the USA from February/March, 2017.
Final location details are finalized and will be announced soon.

CSCW is an international and interdisciplinary conference focused on how
technology intersects with social practices. To support diverse and
high-quality contributions, CSCW employs a two-phase review process and
does not impose an arbitrary length limit on submissions.

This year’s CFP includes a special invitation for papers that make a
contribution to building CSCW systems.

IMPORTANT DATES
* May 27, 2016: Submission due (5:00pm PDT)
* July 12, 2016: First-round notifications (Revise & Resubmit or Reject)
* August 9, 2016: Revised papers due (5:00pm PDT)
* September 6, 2016: Final notifications

We invite authors to submit papers that inform the design or deployment
of collaborative or social systems; introduce novel systems, interaction
techniques, or algorithms; or study existing collaborative or social
practices. The scope of CSCW includes social computing and social media,
crowdsourcing, open collaboration, technologically-enabled or enhanced
communication, CSCL, MOOCs, and related educational technologies,
multi-user input technologies, collaboration, awareness, information
sharing, and coordination. This scope spans socio-technical domains of
work, home, education, healthcare, the arts, socializing, and
entertainment. Papers can report on novel research results, systems, or
new ways of thinking about, studying, or supporting shared activities.

This year in particular CSCW would like to invite papers that make a
contribution to building CSCW systems including (but not limited to)
technical enablers for CSCW applications; methods and techniques for new
CSCW services and applications; and evaluation of fully-built CSCW
systems and lab and field settings. Authors will be able to direct such
submissions to a dedicated subcommittee.

Contributions to CSCW across a variety of research techniques,
approaches, and domains, including:

* Social and crowd computing. Studies, theories, designs, mechanisms,
systems, and/or infrastructures addressing social media, social
networking, wikis, blogs, online gaming, crowdsourcing, collective
intelligence, virtual worlds or collaborative information seeking.

* System design and engineering. Hardware, architectures,
infrastructures, interaction design, technical foundations, algorithms,
and/or toolkits that enable the building of new social and collaborative
systems and experiences.

* Theories and models. Critical analysis or organizing theory (e.g.
sociological theories, group coordination, etc.) with clear relevance to
the design or study of social and collaborative systems.

* Empirical investigations. Findings, guidelines, and/or studies
relating to technologies, practices, or use of communication,
collaboration, and social technologies.

* Social and collaborative practices. Characterizing the nature of
collaboration and social interaction through studies of practice,
including both work practice and non-work collaborative and social
practices.

* Mining and Modeling. Studies, analyses, algorithms, and
infrastructures for making use of large and small scale data.

* Methodologies and tools. Novel methods or combinations of approaches
and tools used in building systems or studying their use.

* CSCW and social computing for underserved populations. Studies,
systems, design, and other research focused on social and collaborative
computing for the elderly, disabled, impoverished, or otherwise
underserved user communities.

* Domain-specific social and collaborative applications. Including
applications to healthcare, transportation, gaming, ICT4D,
sustainability, education, accessibility, global collaboration, or other
domains.

* Collaboration systems based on emerging technologies. Mobile and
ubiquitous computing, game engines, virtual worlds, multi-touch
technologies, novel display technologies, vision and gesture
recognition, big data, MOOCs, crowd labor markets, SNSes, or sensing
systems.

* Crossing boundaries. Studies, prototypes, or other investigations that
explore interactions across disciplines, distance, languages,
generations, and cultures, to help better understand how to transcend
social, temporal, and/or spatial boundaries.

SUBMISSIONS
Paper submissions must be made via the Precision Conference System
(https://precisionconference.com/~sigchi/) by 5:00pm Pacific Daylight
Time (PDT) on May 27th 2016. The site is open for submissions beginning
April 29th.

Papers will be presented at the CSCW conference and will be included in
the conference proceedings archived in the ACM Digital Library. CSCW
does not accept submissions that were published previously in formally
reviewed publications or that are currently submitted elsewhere.
