Improving the selectivity of awareness information in groupware applications
José David, Marcos R. S. Borges · 2002
Many awareness mechanisms in groupware systems have been searching to reduce the amount of information found in the workspace where activities develop. Several approaches and proposals found in literature are based on filter usage for best identifying and presenting information according to the users choices or previous ways of working. The goal of the paper is to present a strategy to both guide the selection of information from the group memory and support coordination actions in groupware applications. This proposal is based on filters and awareness profiles established by the participants in groupware activities.
