This special function of haptics supports low level exchanges during=20 closely coupled tasks and enables improved interpersonal awareness,=20 social presence and affective communication through the last Information=20 and Communication Technologies (ICT) and Computer Supported Cooperative=20 Work systems (CSCW). This highly multidisciplinary field is quickly=20 expanding and involves numerous research challenges including hardware,=20 software, perceptual and social issues. This workshop intends to foster discussions and exchanges among=20 participants and exhibit recent and original contributions in the field=20 of haptics for Telepresence, Teleportation and Collaborative=20 Environments (e.g., CVE, CSCW, Groupware). The workshop solicits=20 research papers (4-6 pages) and posters (1-2 pages) addressing one or=20 more of the following topics, although authors should not feel limited=20 by them: * Haptic interpersonal communication, haptic affective and emotional=20 communication, haptic for the interpersonal awareness and presence * Telepresence, Teleoperation and Telemicro/nanomanipulation systems * Collaborative Virtual Environments, Groupwares and Computer Supported=20 Cooperative Work systems (software architectures, hardware platforms, etc= .) * Haptics in mobile devices (Smartphone, Tablet, etc.), haptic for=20 E-learning environments * Experimental studies, Social studies Workshop Co-Chairs: --------------------------- * Mehdi Ammi, CNRS/LIMSI, Univ.
