ABSTRACT
In cooperative activity users require information about their cooperative environment. AwarenessMaps provide the members of shared workspaces with an overview of users and shared documents: the PeopleMap shows an array of pictures of active users fading out over time; and the DocumentMap provides a schematic overview of the structure of a shared workspace and indicates recent changes.

Collaboard: a remote collaboration groupware device featuring an embodiment-enriched shared workspace
GROUP '10: Proceedings of the 2010 ACM International Conference on Supporting Group WorkIn this paper we present a mixed presence groupware device called "CollaBoard". The device improves collaboration between co-located and remote partners by providing a high level of workspace awareness. This is achieved by superimposing a life-size ...
What makes groups learning effectively in a videoconference setting?
ICLS '06: Proceedings of the 7th international conference on Learning sciencesIn an experimental study designed to test co-operative learning in a videoconference setting, dyads were formed to work under three different conditions: "without a shared workspace", "with a shared workspace", or "with a shared workspace plus a content-...
Enhancing collaboration of multi-developer projects with synchronous changes
ICSE '10: Proceedings of the 32nd ACM/IEEE International Conference on Software Engineering - Volume 2In a multi-developer project, team collaboration is essential for the success of the project. When team members are spread across different locations, informal interactions are lost, having an impact on individual awareness of the activity of others. In ...
