The emergence of network facilities and the increased availability
of personal computer systems over the last decade has seen the
development of interest in the use of computers to support
cooperative work. This volume presents the proceedings of the fifth
European conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW).
This is a multidisciplinary area which embraces both the
development of new technologies and an understanding of the
relationship between technology and society. This volume contains a
collection of papers that encompass activities in the field. It
includes papers addressing distribute virtual environments, the use
of the Internet, studies of work and emerging models, theories and
techniques to support the development of cooperative applications.
The papers present emerging technologies alongside new methods and
approaches to the development of this important class of
applications. The work in this volume represents the best of the
current research and practice within CSCW. The collection of papers
presented here will appeal to both researchers and practitioners
alike, as they combine an understanding of the nature of work with
the possibilities offered by new technologies.

to the proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Pervasive
Computing. The
year2008wasthesecondtimeinasmanyyearsthatthePervasiveconferencehas
attempted to "globalize" For the second year in a row the
conference was held outside of Europe. The conference is seen as
one of the most respected venues for publishing researchon
pervasive and ubiquitous computing and captures the state of the
art in pervasive computing research. In 2008, as in previous years,
the proceedings present solutions for challenging research problems
and help to identify upcoming research opportunities. Pervasive
2008 attracted 114 high-quality submissions, from which the Te-
nical Program Committee accepted 18 papers, resulting in a
competitive 15. 8% acceptance rate. There were over 335 individual
authors from 27 countries, c- ing from a wide range of disciplines
and from both academic and industrial organizations. Papers were
selected solely on the quality of their peer reviews using a
double-blind review process. The review process was carried out by
38 members of the international Technical ProgramCommittee (TPC)
who are - perts of international standing. The TPC members were
aided by 104 external reviewers. It wasa rigorousreviewprocess, in
whicheachpaper had atleastfour reviews: three reviews provided by
by the Committee members and one review written by an external
reviewer. The reviews were followed by a substantive - liberation
