Websites on Research: The Caelum Toolkit a general framework for the construction of groupware and CSCW applications. Collaborative Software Development Laboratory provides a physical, organizational, technological, and intellectual environment conducive to collaborative development of world-class software engineering skills. CSCW Annotated Bibliography An annotated bibliography, through 1991, of computer supported cooperative work. This bibliography is a part of the Computer Science Bibliography Collection. CSCW Evaluation in Five Types One of the potentially confusing aspects of evaluation within computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) is that there are many activities one might wish to carry out at different times that evaluate socio-technical systems. I identify five ideal types: the effects of a new computer system in an organisation; the formative development of a piece of software; the evaluation of conceptual developments; the evaluation of a cooperative system where factors other than the computers are more interesting; and the determination of which piece of software to buy. Everything's Coming Up Virtual Research paper about virtual organizations and the information technology needed to support them. Published in Crossroads, the ACM student magazine. GroupLab Research Abstract and text of CSCW research papers from GoupLab, 1983-1999. Groupware Design Issues Elaboration of the primary issues in designing collaborative systems, including issues of group size and structure, floor control, privacy, and groupware adoption. Helping CSCW Applications Succeed This study found that the use of a computer conferencing system in a research and development lab was significantly shaped by a set of intervening actors, "mediators", who actively guided and manipulated the technology and its use over time. Internet Groupware for Scientific Collaboration A "manifesto" for how groupware technologies could dramatically improve the efficiency of scientific collaboration. Introduction to Groupware Groupware is software that helps groups of people work together. This introduction explains the goals and purposes of groupware, and some of the challenges involved. Modifying CSCW Environments Dynamically for Supporting Virtual Enterprises In CSCW environments data and operations can be shared by users and/or they can have their own defined data and operations which may not be shared by other users. A Survey of Applications of CSCW for Digital Libraries A review of the field of CSCW with respect to digital libraries; covers both library and information science and computer science. Typical Groupware Applications An overview of the primary groupware applications, including both synchronous groupware (video, chat, shared drawing) and asynchronous (email, workflow, newsgroups).
