Workshop Background and Goals
This workshop intends to be a forum for debate of issues concerning all kinds of activity coordination, including business process modelling, workflow, computer supported cooperative work/groupware, e-learning, e-commerce and other types of organized activities that can benefit from computer support. The emphasis of this workshop is mainly on human activity support and not merely on technical issues. We seek papers related to computer-based systems that support teams or groups in workplace settings, including the integration of multiple computer-based tools and technologies and the impact on the social activities supported by those tools and technologies.
