A1: Shared Virtual
Worlds
A2:
Distributed Virtual Environments
A3: Collaborative Design and Manufacturing
B1: Information Retrieval and
Information Security
B2: Data Mining and Warehousing in Cyberworlds
B3: HCI and Humanised Interfaces in
Cyberworlds
C1:
Philosophy, Evolution, and Ethics of Cyberworlds
C2: Business Models in
Cyberworlds
D1:
Cyberlearning
D2:
Cyberculture and Cyberarts
CW2005 will provide an opportunity for scientists and engineers from around the world to share the latest research, ideas, and developments in these fields. The conference will consist of full paper sessions, short presentations, panels, tutorials, cyber art exhibition, industrial seminars, and hands-on demonstrations where research groups, vendors, and artists will show the state-of-the-art in the field.
There will be also 3 workshops
