WACC '99 brings together researchers and practitioners from a variety of disciplines who are addressing or facing issues in work activities coordination and collaboration. Various aspects of this topic have been addressed previously under the separate banners of workflow, software process, groupware, and computer-supported cooperative work.
WACC '99 provides a multi-purpose forum for the presentation, discussion, and demonstration of key ideas in this important area. Twenty-four technical papers will be presented demonstrating novel research results. The keynote address, titled Managing Processes in the Networked Economy, will be given by Thomas W. Malone, MIT Sloan School of Management. Invited speakers, panels, posters, and informal research demonstrations will be included in the conference program. The conference will be complemented by workshops on Cross-Organizational Workflow Management and Coordination and Implementing Tailorability in Groupware and tutorials on Internet Scale Workflow: Standards for Cross-Enterprise Business Processes; CSCW, Groupware and Workflow: Experiences, State of the Art, and Future Trends; and XML: Modeling Data and Metadata. A reception will be held the evening of Tuesday, February 23.

WACC '99 invites Panel, Poster, and Informal Research Demonstration submissions. Panels trigger significant debate and opposing views. Posters and Informal Research Demonstrations provide an excellent opportunity to exhibit and discuss late-breaking results and research prototypes.
Display space will be provided for posters in the poster/informal research demonstration room.
Only versions of tools or systems (a) developed for non-commercial purposes to explore novel research ideas or (b) which are at least six months from commercial offerings will be accepted as research demonstrations. Booths will be provided in the Poster/Informal Research Demonstration room. No Internet connections, phone lines, or computing or projection equipment will be provided.
Poster and demonstration researchers are expected to be available during the reception Tuesday evening. Wednesday morning from 9:00am to 12:00 noon, and during breaks.
How to Submit. Prepare a one-page description of the proposed panel, poster, or informal research demonstration. Panel submissions must include a title, the name of the chair/moderator, a short description of the specific topic and its interest to the audience, and a list of panelists; participation by the panelists must be confirmed before submission of the proposal. Poster and informal research demonstration submissions must describe the research problem addressed and include an outline of how the solution will be presented to its audience.
Submissions must be prepared in plain ASCII text and sent electronically to: wacc99@cs.colorado.edu
