Seattle, Washington, November 14-18, 1998

Deadline for early registration discounts: October 9, 1998

Sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Groups on Computer-Human Interaction
(SIGCHI) and Supporting Group Work (SIGGROUP).

Emerging technologies are profoundly changing how people, organizations, and
societies interact. The Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW)
Conference is the premier international conference for research and
development achievements in design, introduction, and use of these=
technologies.

Douglas Engelbart, who this year received ACM's most prestigious award, will
open the conference with the ACM Turing Award Lecture, Collective IQ and a
Framework for Bootstrapping our Society. Engelbart's vision of the potential
of computing has ranged from technical innovations such as the invention of
the mouse to early recognition of the need for technical, organizational,
and social co-evolution.. William J. Mitchell, Dean of the MIT School of
Architecture and Planning and author of City of Bits, one of the first books
published both digitally and in print, will give the closing plenary.

Prominent researchers from universities, companies, and government
labs around the world will present at this highly selective conference.
