Welcome—CRIWG 08

The CRIWG 2008 workshop follows the success of the previous international CRIWG events held in 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. This event is organized in cooperation with the Comahue National University, Argentina. 

The CRIWG workshops have been motivated by advances in Computer Supported Cooperative Work, and by the need for CSCW to meet the challenges of new application areas. This workshop aims at providing a forum for academic researchers and professionals to exchange their experiences and their ideas about problems and solutions related to the design, development and use of groupware applications. Researchers can report their ideas, models, designs and experiences to CRIWG submitting full paper contributions to present achieved or mature works, and shorter papers to report work in progress. PhD students are invited to present their research in the doctoral colloquium.
