Scope of Conference
Design of complex artifacts and systems requires the cooperation of multidisciplinary design teams. The
2025 28th International Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work in Design (CSCWD 2025)
provides a forum for researchers and practitioners involved in different but related domains to confront
research results and discuss key problems. The scope of CSCWD 2025 includes the research and
development of collaboration technologies and their applications to the design of processes, products,
systems, and services in industries and societies. Collaboration technologies include theories, methods,
mechanisms, protocols, software tools, platforms, and services that support communication, coordination
and collaboration among people, software and hardware systems. Related fields of research include
human-computer interaction, business process management, collaborative virtual environments, enterprise
modeling, security and privacy, as well as social aspects and human factors related to collaboration and
design. The major topics of interest to the conference include, but are not limited to:
• Collaboration theory and methodology
• Design of collaboration methods, processes, mechanisms, and protocols
• Collaboration across disciplines (design science, service science and data science)
• Innovative collaborative approaches (crowdsourcing, social media)
• Collaborative computing (Cloud/Edge Computing, Web services, Blockchains)
• Cyber-physical systems, Industry 4.0, digital twins, industrial metaverse
• Large Language Models, Industrial Foundation Models
• Industrial Internet, IoT, sensor networks
• Security and privacy in collaborative systems
• Collaboration technology applications

Submission of Papers
Papers reporting original research results and experience are solicited. Each paper, written in English, is
limited to 6 pages (IEEE proceedings format), including references and illustrations. Electronic submissions
in PDF format are strongly recommended. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that,
should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will attend the conference to present the paper.
Submission Web Site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cscwd2025
Publication
All submitted papers will be reviewed by program committee members and selected based on their
originality, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. Accepted papers will be published in the
IEEE categorized conference proceedings and will be submitted for indexing to EI (Compendex), DBLP
and other indexing services. Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit revised and expanded
version of their papers to be considered for publication in special issues of well-known international
journals.
