 * Shared virtual environments
 * Group decision support systems
 * Theories, tools, and methods for concurrent engineering
 * Developments and uses of Internet, Intranet and CSCW
 * Computer supported cooperative design
 * Single display groupware and tabletop interfaces
 * Design, assessments and evaluations of innovative collaborative
   technologies
 * Other related areas

Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research,
