Submission Instructions

 

Procedure

CSCW 2008 requires electronic submission. The submission procedures vary among the participation catetgories. Be sure to follow the specific instructions given in the call for each individual category. Any questions about your submissions or the procedure should be directed to the appropriate Program Chairs.

 

Format

All submissions that will appear in the proceedings must be formatted according to the ACM SIGCHI Template (Word version or LaTeX version). Note: This template is different from the ACM SIG Proceedings template.

An important aspect of preparing your paper is to provide the proper indexing and retrieval information from the ACM Computing Classification System. Please choose your category and descriptor terms carefully. These will be used to classify your submission in the ACM Digital Library. For help on choosing appropriate terms, visit http://www.acm.org/class/how_to_use.html.

Note that Papers, Notes, and Interactive Posters use a blind review process: the submitted copy should have all authors' names and affiliations blanked out, and should avoid any obvious identifying features. While authors should leave citations to their own relevant work unanonymized, they should reference it in a way that doesn't readily identify them as the authors. For example use "Prior work by [ref]" instead of "In our prior work." Demos, Panels, Videos, Workshops, and the Doctoral Colloquium are not blind reviewed.

Check back here for instructions about acceptable file formats and final submission formatting.

Due Dates and Times

All submissions must be received by 5:00pm (17:00) Pacific Time on the due date unless otherwise specified. Please see the individual call for each participation category for the specific due dates. Submissions received after 5pm Pacific Time on the due date will not be considered.

All submissions will be acknowledged by email.
