The 2016 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS 2016), in its 17th edition, will be held on October 31 - November 04, 2016 in Orlando, Florida, USA. Under the theme of “Collaboration for the 21st Century,“ CTS 2016 will focus on a wide range of the state-of-the-art as well as emerging topics pertaining to cooperation, coordination, communication, and collaboration at both the client and backend (cloud) levels. Continuing the great successes of previous CTS events, CTS 2016 is anticipated to attract a large number of high-quality submissions and stimulate cutting-edge research discussions among many pioneering researchers and scientists as well as industry engineers and leaders from all around the world.

CTS 2016 includes different types of activities and venues for contribution. The CTS 2016 program will feature a number of symposia, workshops, and special sessions, invited presentations, and exceptional keynote and plenary speakers. It will have tutorials, demos, posters, doctoral dissertation colloquium, panels, exhibits, as well as several social events. More information can be found on the conference website: CTS 2016 and under the Call for Papers and Participation. Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical papers—up to 8 pages of length. Various CTS 2016 Symposia, Workshops and Special Sessions may have different deadlines and submission sites, as listed on the conference website and track pages.

The CTS 2016 Conference Proceedings will be available at the time of the meeting, and will be submitted to the ACM or IEEE Xplore Digital Library (pending). Selected papers will be further considered for possible publication in special issues in ranked international journals.
