Created intentionally or spontaneously, cyberworlds are information spaces and commuties that use computer technologies to augment the way we interact, participate in business and receive information throughout the world. Cyberworlds have ever-growing impact on our lives and the evolution of the world economy. Examples include social networking services, 3D shared virtual communities and massively multiplayer online role-playing games.

PAST CONFERENCES

The conference name "cyberworlds" originates from the book Cyberworlds with the proceedings of the first Workshop on Synthetic Worlds organized by the late Professor T.L. Kunii at the University of Aizu, Japan in 1993. The first big conference on cyberworlds was organized later in 2002, and since then the CW conferences have been held annually.
