Scope of CSCWD2000
Design of complex artifacts require the cooperation of a number of specialists working in different domains. The Fifth International Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work in Design (CSCWD2000) provides a forum for people involved in different but related domains to confront research results and discuss key problems. The major themes of CSCWD2000 include the following:
  • Techniques, methods, and tools for improving CSCW in Design;
  • Social organization of the CSC process;
  • Integration of tools and methods within the work organization;
  • Interaction between design and other steps in the production cycle (e.g. production planning, scheduling, and control);
  • Interaction between the CSC approach and knowledge reuse as found in knowledge management;
  • Internet and CSCW in Design;
  • Applications and testbeds.

Location of Conference
Hong Kong, this compact but varied city, is perfect for walking tours, with temples, tea shops and tailors all a short distance from major downtown hotels or the Star Ferry. And the world's longest escalator, climbing 2,620 feet from Central District up to the Mid-Levels residential area, passes some of Hong Kong's best restaurants and some interesting pottery shops.

The beautiful and traditional outer islands, an attraction for all ages, make an easy, fascinating outing via a regular, efficient ferry service. Places such as Cheung Chau, Lamma and Mui Wo (Silvermine Bay) provide a perfect contrast to bustling Hong Kong.
