Dear all,

This is the last call for contributions to the journal track of the ECSCW 2020. If you want to avail of an opportunity to present your paper at ECSCW 2020, we highly recommend that you submit your contribution within the next two weeks.

The journal track of the conference is continuously receiving submission, however, in order for a paper to be presented in ECSCW 2020, it must be send to production in April 2020 the latest.

This has some important implications for the submission and review process, as clarified in the call for paper below.

If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us!

We are looking forward to your contributions!

Kind regards,
Fabiano, Antonella & Thomas
ECSCW 2020 Programme Editors


=== CALL FOR PAPERS ===
ECSCW 2020, The 18th European Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work
Siegen (Germany), June 13 – 17, 2020
https://ecscw.eusset.eu/2020/

For 30 years, the ECSCW conference has served as a major international venue for defining and further developing the agenda for CSCW research, which has been focusing on the understanding of cooperative work practices and investigation of the mediational role of computer technology in it. The conference has a longstanding interest in empirical, conceptual, theoretical and technical contributions, and has a tradition of innovation and inclusiveness.

ECSCW 2020 will take place in Siegen, Germany, from June 13-17, 2020 (see https://ecscw.eusset.eu/2020/). The themes of the conference include, but are not limited to:


  *   Empirical investigations of collaborative practices. Findings, guidelines, and/or studies related to communication, collaboration, and social technologies, practices, or use.
  *   System design focusing on solutions to support cooperative work in increasingly complex, networked settings.
  *   Hardware, architectures, infrastructures, interaction design, technical foundations, algorithms, and/or toolkits that enable the building of new social and collaborative systems and experiences.
  *   Methodologies and tools for investigating human practices: the nature of ethnography and the role of other innovative research approaches in building systems or studying their use, the application of design fictions to investigate future possibilities.
  *   Critical analysis or theory with clear relevance to study or design of collaborative settings and systems.
  *   Domain-specific social and collaborative applications, including applications to digital civics, grassroots movements, healthcare, transportation, ICT4D, sustainability, education, accessibility, global collaboration, or other domains.
  *   Analysis of the ethics and policy implications of socio-technical systems, the values that inform them, and the algorithms that shape them.
  *   Studies, prototypes, or other investigations that explore interactions across disciplines, distance, languages, generations, and cultures, to help understand how to transcend social, temporal, and/or spatial boundaries.
  *   Discussions and extrapolations of work-practices and technologies, which contribute to the core topics of ECSCW

ECSCW is a single-track conference that contributes to developing an interdisciplinary and global community, supported by EUSSET, the European Society for Socially Embedded Technologies (https://www.eusset.eu/). The conference format facilitates critical discussion across disciplinary and national borders in the field. An overview of earlier ECSCW conferences (and proceedings) is available at https://www.eusset.eu/events/ecscw/.

Similar to previous ECSCW conferences, ECSCW 2020 will feature different types of publications – Journal Papers, Exploratory Papers, Poster and Demos, among others. Each publication type will have a separate call for submissions given the differences in the review process.

This call targets the Journal Papers documenting original, rich, and in-depth contributions to CSCW. Submitted papers will follow a standard journal review process and accepted submissions will be published in Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW): The Journal of Collaborative Computing and Work Practices, the most prestigious Journal of CSCW research.

Upon acceptance of the paper to the Journal, authors are expected to present their work at the conference.

Important information about the review process:
For the first time, submissions to the journal-track of the ECSCW conference will undergo a fully-integrated review process which will be continuous. Reviews and resubmissions will therefore not be restricted to two rounds, as it was the case in the past. Rather, the new submission and review process will allow authors to develop and refine stronger papers over a longer time period (as soon as the authors submit early enough). The review process is single-blind, as has been since ECSCW implemented a journal-track.

Authors are encouraged to submit as soon as they have their manuscripts ready. Early submissions will allow for multiple Revise & Resubmit cycles (if necessary) and will generally result into earlier publication of the accepted manuscript in the Journal. As soon as a manuscript has been accepted for publication, it will go to production, and when production has finished (including proof corrections), it will be published on Springer Online First, complete with DOI.

Important dates:

May 15, 2019: The system opens for submissions
July, 2019 – February 2020: Revise & Resubmission/Early accepts
March 15, 2020: Acceptance cut-off date for ECSCW 2020
April 12, 2020: Deadline for the production-ready version of all accept papers
June 13-17, 2020: ECSCW Conference in Siegen

To be considered for publication and presentation at ECSCW 2020, papers must at least reach the status Accepted but incomplete by March 15, 2020. This status differs from a Minor revisions recommendation. The former refers to papers which require only minor formatting amendments, while the latter refers to papers which still require some minor structural or conceptual changes.

If the paper does not reach the Accepted but incomplete status by March 15, 2020, it will automatically be transferred to the batch of submissions for the subsequent ECSCW conference, unless the submission is withdrawn. With this approach, the authors will not have to restart the submission process and all work completed to this point will be considered for the next chapter of the conference. This also means that authors may get their papers accepted shortly after the ECSCW 2020 conference. If this happens, the paper will be published as an Online First manuscript as soon as it goes through the production process and its presentation will be expected at ECSCW 2021.

The production-ready version of the papers that reach the Accepted but incomplete status by March 15, 2020 must be submitted by the April 12, 2020 to be included for presentation at the ECSCW 2020.

After submitting their articles for production, authors may be required to make additional revisions, according to the publication standards of the Journal.

Submission format:
Paper submissions should be formatted following the CSCW Journal Instructions for Authors available at:https://www.springer.com/computer/journal/10606. The length of the paper must correspond to the size of the contribution.

Submission process:
Manuscripts must be submitted at the link: https://www.editorialmanager.com/cosu. When submitting, please selectECSCW Contribution as the article type and follow the submission steps until the final manuscript upload.

For any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the ECSCW 2020 Programme Editors at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.
