Facilitating team-based adaptation of shared workspaces
Dirk Veiel, Jörg M. Haake, Stephan G. Lukosch · 2010
Distributed collaboration in a shared workspace involves flexible switching between emerging collaboration situations demanding appropriate technology support thus requiring modification of the shared workspace. We argue that manual tailoring creates large overhead for team members that can be reduced by employing our context-based adaptation approach. Six requirements for team-based adaptation of a shared workspace are defined, and it is shown how our context-based adaptation approach does address them and may lead to improving team interaction and collaboration by a better suited configuration of the shared workspace, and reducing the overhead for adaptation imposed on team members.
