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。

Shared file repositories are a type of user-contributed content application used by workgroups to store and share files online. Their use in organizations is becoming more frequent; however, repository users are not always able to effectively find and access information, especially when files in the repository have been created and maintained by others. Through field studies involving current users of shared file repositories, I will document and analyze the scope and consequences of the problem. In addition, I will test hypotheses about possible remedies through a series of experiments exploring the effects of common ground on folder hierarchy and naming structure, and the ability of users to find and access files in group information management systems.
