International Conference Series on Disability, Virtual Reality and Associated Technologies (ICDVRAT 2006) September 18–20, 2006 Musikhuset, Esbjerg, Denmark http://www.icdvrat.rdg.ac.uk/ The purpose of the sixth International Conference on Disability, Virtual Reality and Associated Technologies is to provide a forum for international experts and researchers to present and review how advances in the general area of virtual reality can be used to assist people with disability. This international conference will encompass all aspects of technology used in Virtual Reality systems. It is hoped that the conference will act as a focus for international collaboration. Associated with the ICDVRAT conference will be an additional one day conference on ArtAbilitation—the use of art in rehabilitation (http://www.artabilitation.com/). doi: 10.1016/j.cag.2006.01.023
CSCW 2006: Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work, Banff, Canada, November 4–8, 2006 The CSCW Conference is the premier venue for presenting research and development achievements in the design, introduction, and use of technology that affect groups, organizations, communities and societies. Although work is an important area of focus for the conference, technology is increasingly supporting a wide range of recreational and social activities. As more and more people in all regions of the globe are able to interact online, we are rapidly moving toward a computer-supported collaborative world. Appropriate topic areas for CSCW 2006 include all contexts in which technology is used to mediate human activities such as communication, coordination, cooperation, competition, entertainment, education, medicine, art, and music. Given its broad scope, CSCW is a multi-disciplinary conference, and participation of people from diverse backgrounds, cultures and perspectives is strongly encouraged. www: http://www.acm.org/cscw2006/ doi: 10.1016/j.cag.2006.01.005
