Abstract
The aim of this research is to identify the key problems in collaborative authoring, based on collected field data (a field study of the co-authoring process and an observational study of awareness), and a review of previous research on the subject. From this, potential criteria are identified which support awareness in collaborative authoring. Existing tools (analysis) are compared using these criteria. Finally, a prototype system, CAWS (Co-Authoring Wiki based System), is described. This system is designed to enhance users' awareness in order to improve productivity in collaborative development of documents. Experiments will lead to a greater understanding of the quantitative effects of awareness on collaboration.
本研究的目的是基于收集到的实地数据(对合作创作过程的实地研究和对意识的观察研究),以及对以往相关研究的回顾,确定协作创作中的关键问题。由此,可以确定支持协作创作意识的潜在标准。使用这些标准比较现有的工具(分析)。最后,描述了一个原型系统CAWS (co - authororing Wiki based system)。该系统旨在提高用户的意识,以提高文档协同开发的生产力。实验将使我们更好地理解意识对合作的定量影响。
