Hornung, ChristophChristophHornungSantos, AdelinoAdelinoSantos2022-03-092022-03-091993https://publica.fraunhofer.de/handle/publica/322103We focus on understanding the workplace and technology currently appearing for CSCW and groupware development. The tutorial addresses the software implementation challenges that accompany groupware development. Our view is that many problems arise from our inadequate appreciation of the subtle dynamics that affect a group's activity and determine its response to technology. Social, political and motivational factors that are not very important in computer support of the "solo" aspects of an individual's work are major factors governing the success of groupware. Getting a better understanding of this mix of computer technology with group factors and giving a state-of-the-art survey constitute the main goal of this tutorial.enComputer supported cooperative work (CSCW)groupware006conference proceeding
