Common Task

With the development and popularization of intranet/Extranet and Internet, it provides vast development space for manufacturing industry. The computer support cooperative work such as collaborative design and collaborative manufacturing based on web is presented under the background. Computer Support Cooperative Work (CSCW) is defined that in the environment supported by computer technology, a groupware cooperatively work to accomplish a common task. The paper is focus on the construction of CSCW system and group collaborative work mode in CSCW. The group collaborative model of CSCW should be intensified further to abstract the features of group collaboration and direct the research on collaborative work technology.

Computer Support Cooperative Work

The aim of computer support cooperative work (CSCW) research is to improve the level of collaborative work among group components. Therefore we must understand the collaborative mode among the members of group to direct the collaborative work and research. The research on group collaborative work mode in CSCW is to summarize the collaborative mode of human group under information society environment and direct the collaborative work technology research. The research on the group collaborative model of CSCW should be intensified further to abstract the features of group collaboration and direct the research on collaborative work technology. In CSCW field, there are many group collaborative modes, such as conversation model, meeting model, process model, activity model and so on.

Distributed Cooperation

A modular approach of computer supported cooperative work system is proposed which based on the hierarchical structure characteristics of distributed cooperative system and the advanced component technology. The key of this approach is regarded the module as core to organize and manage cooperative objects and used the CORBA specifications as an interactive platform to achieve the object communication. The browser/server computing model is used in this approach to deal with remote heterogeneous cooperation problem and the mechanism of cooperation is separated so as to facilitate the application of a distributed cooperation environment for quick implementation. The goal is to provide an open framework for computer supported cooperative work system developers, which can support the implementation of distributed cooperative work to improve system development time. The modular approach of computer supported cooperative work system and its implementation has been achieved in the prototype system MCSCDS.

<p>This paper presents a conceptual toolbox, developed to support the design of CSCW applications in a large Esprit project, EuroCODE. Here, several groups of designers work to investigate computer support for cooperative work in large use organizations, at the same time as they work to develop an open development platform for CSCW applications. The conceptual toolbox has been developed to support communication in and among these design groups, between designers and users and in future use of the open development platform.</p><p>Rejecting the idea that one may design from a framework describing CSCW, the toolbox aims to support design by doing and help bridging between work with users, technical design, and insights gained from theoretical and empirical CSCW research.</p>

The Way

The usefulness of applications which support cooperative work depends in its very nature on the way the cooperative work practice is organised. At the same time, the adoption of new technology is difficult and complex because of the amount of people involved and their distribution in time and space. This paper explores the possibilities of addressing this adoption process in a more simplified, yet systematic way without losing the focus on the interdependencies which characterise cooperative work. The notion of adoption is discussed as a dual process of adapting both the computer support to the work and adapting the work to the computer. A method called organisational prototyping is presented which aims at facilitating this adoption process. A case illustrates how organisa- tional prototyping was used in the adoption of a cooperative tool for managing projects within a large engineering company in Denmark.

Based on the concept and organization mode of CSCW (computer support cooperative work), this paper is to describe the research on establishing an organization structure which has one center and multiple cooperative work nodes. By employing advanced multi-media processing technology and method, it shall constitute a cooperative work platform providing remote video conference capability. Moreover, it also focus on some key points including nodes management, operation information sharing and operation control of remote nodes etc. which shall improve performance of work platform including flexible structure, easy integration and high-efficiency of operation.

And Control

During the last decade, literature about work has increasingly focused on the importance of collective communication, tacit knowledge, and group activities. The idea of designing computer support for groupbased work activities, which we loosely call ''cooperative work'', is a useful and challenging one, for it represents a break from design approaches that focused on centralized and bureaucratic systems of communication and control. To get a clearer idea of the meaning of cooperative work. this article will look at historical patterns of world organization and management strategies. It will contrast user-centered concepts of cooperative work, with the idea of seeing cooperative work in the context of democracy in the workplace. The focus on workplace democracy has been a main theme in the Scandinavian systems tradition. The article uses the Scandinavian tradition, with its roots in a Labor Process Approach as a way to analyze the meaning of cooperation for workplace democracy and its implication for the design of computer support.

The title of this paper was chosen to highlight the fact that the label CSCW, although widely adopted as the acronym for the field of Computer Supported Cooperative Work, has been applied to computer applications of very different ilk. It is not at all clear what are the unique identifying elements of this research area. This paper provides a framework for approaching the issue of cooperative work and its possible computer support. The core issues are identified and prospects for the field are outlined.

Este artigo apresenta algumas das novas características sociais e tecnológicas contemporâneas que têm ampliado o poder da comunicação e se tornaram, ao mesmo tempo, ferramentas na produção de bens e serviços. Elas dão qualidade aos procedimentos administrativos, às atividades produtivas e ao trabalho das organizações empresariais, tratando, especialmente, dessa potencialização no Ensino a Distância. Argumentamos também que tais características sócio técnicas contemporâneas têm produzido condições de se conceber um novo paradigma sobre o comportamento e o uso de tecnologias nas atividades de ensino e aprendizagem em ambientes virtuais. Serão aqui apresentados os conceitos de trabalho cooperativo apoiado por computador (Computer Support Cooperative Work - CSCW), Groupware, Modelo Cooperativo 3C, Web 2.0 e EaD 2.0, além da importância e usos desses conceitos no EaD.Palavras-chave: Trabalho Colaborativo/Cooperativo Apoiado por Computador; EaD; Modelo Cooperativo 3C; Web 2.0; EaD 2.0.The New Social and Technical Conditions for EAD 2.0AbstractThis article presents some new social and technological features that have expanded the power of communication and at the same time became tools in the production of goods and services. They give quality to administrative procedures, to productive activities, to the work of business organizations, and especially is this enhancement in the E-Learning. We also argue that such contemporary sociotechnical features have produced new conditions of developing a new paradigm on the behavior and the use of technology in teaching and learning activities in virtual environments. Concepts will be presented about Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), Groupware, 3C Model, its importance and uses in E-Learning, in addition to the concept of Web 2.0 and E-Learning 2.0.Keywords: Computer Supported Cooperative Work: CSCW; E-Learning; 3C cooperative Model; Web 2.0; E-Learning 2.0.
