You are invited to contribute original work to CSCW'98, the 1998 ACM
Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work.

The CSCW Conference is the preeminent venue for presenting research and
development achievements covering the design, introduction, and use of
technology that affects groups, organizations, and society. Since its
inception a decade ago, CSCW has been on the leading edge of our
extraordinary expansion in the uses of technology. CSCW'98 will play an
important role in framing and extending the discussion about technology's
role in work and the home.

CSCW is highly multi-disciplinary. If you think you might belong here, you
do belong here. Topics include, but are not limited to:
* Technology use in specific work domains
* Innovations and experiences with Intranets, the Internet, WWW
* Theoretical aspects of coordination and communication
* New technologies and architectures to support group activity
* Social and organizational effects of introducing technology
* Methodologies and tools for design and analysis
* Ethnographic and case studies of work practice
