Contextual awareness based communication and coauthoring proximity in the internet

Published: 01 May 2009 Publication History

Abstract

Taking into account the number of works and studies developed, without any doubt, group awareness constitutes one of the keystones for designing and implementing a groupware application. This research focuses on the design and the development of a Group Awareness Knowledge based System (GAKS) whose aim is to provide elaborated and innovative awareness functions to enhance coauthoring of documents on the World Wide Web.The developed advanced awareness functionalities follow and take advantages of the knowledge based system principles to provide: (1) a synchronous/asynchronous contextual communication tool (related to coauthors' productions and interests), and (2) a detector of physical/logical work proximity that allows users to efficiently produce and coordinate their actions.
