WETICE is an annual IEEE International conference on state-of-the-art research in enabling technologies for collaboration, consisting of a number of cognate conference tracks. What sets WETICE apart from larger conferences is that the conference tracks are kept small enough to promote fruitful discussions on the latest technology developments, directions, problems, and requirements. Each track includes paper presentations and group discussions while the keynote sessions and summary of discussions take place in joint sessions. WETICE welcomes papers on "work-in-progress" from the Ph.D. students.
