Scope Over the last two decades, many organizations and individuals have relied on electronic collaboration between distributed teams of humans, computer applications, and/or autonomous robots to achieve higher productivity and produce joint products that would have been impossible to develop without the contributions of multiple collaborators. Technology has evolved from standalone tools, to open systems supporting collaboration in multi-organizational settings, and from general-purpose tools to specialized collaboration grids. Future collaboration solutions that fully realize the promises of electronic collaboration require advancements in networking, technology and systems, user interfaces and interaction paradigms, and interoperation with application-specific components and tools. The 15th International Conference on Collaborative Computing (CollaborateCom 2019) will be held in London, UK, and will continue to serve as a premier international forum for discussion among academic and industrial researchers, practitioners, and students interested in collaborative networking, technology and systems, and applications. Topics General Track • Architectures, protocols, and enabling technologies for collaborative computing networks and systems • Collaboration in social media • Collaborative e-education, e-learning, and collaborative computing in large scale digital libraries • Collaborative information seeking • Collaborative mobile networks and infrastructures • Collaborative technologies for fast creation and deployment of new mobile services • Collaborative, context-aware infrastructure • Computer supported collaborative work with distributed systems • Energy management for collaborative networks • Methodologies and tools for design and analysis of collaborative user applications • Models and mechanisms for real-time collaboration • Peer-to-peer and overlay networks, systems, and applications • Simulation, performance evaluation, experiments, and case studies of collaborative networks and applications • Software design, testing, and experimentation technology for collaborative networking and applications • Theoretical foundations and algorithms for collaborative networks, applications, and worksharing • Tools for collaborative decision making processes • Visualization techniques, interaction devices and visual languages for collaborative networks and applications Track 1.
