Tracks, symposia, workshops and special sessions provide an opportunity for researchers to present results and participate in focused discussions of timely topics on various areas of collaboration computing systems and technologies, theoretical or applied. They are to establish a common understanding of a certain aspect, to share experiences, to foster research communities, to learn from each other, to identify open problems and/or to explore future directions of research. A track or symposium will typically go for more than one day. A workshop will typically be a full day (10-16 papers). A special session will typically have 4-6 papers. Tracks, symposia, workshops and special sessions may also have invited speakers, panels or forums, demos, etc. Tracks, symposia, workshops and special sessions will be fully refereed by at least three qualified reviewers and their accepted papers will be published as part of the CTS 2014 proceedings. The tracks, symposia, workshops and special sessions are considered part of the overall CTS Conference and hence included in the Conference’s registration. For each track, symposium, workshop or special session, at least one organizer must commit to attending and running the respective track, symposium, workshop or special session.
