A Mobile Shared Workspace Supporting Healthcare Task Cooperative Planning

Workspace Management: Supporting Cooperative Work

This paper introduces a mechanism coping with cooperative work in developing and maintaning software artifacts in a multi-user engineering environment. For the long time it has been a problem to handle parallel activities on shared or interdependent products. The required mechanism must be sufficiently flexible to support concurrent updates so that none of new updates will be lost, nor lots of ...

Supporting Informal Collaboration in Shared-Workspace Groupware

Shared-workspace groupware has not become common in the workplace, despite many positive results from research labs. One reason for this lack of success is that most shared workspace systems are designed around the idea of planned, formal collaboration sessions – yet much of the collaboration that occurs in a co-located work group is informal and opportunistic. To support informal collaboration...

a novel method for trajectory planning of cooperative mobile manipulators

we design a two-stage scheme to consider trajectory planning problem of two mobile manipulators for cooperative transportation of a rigid body in presence of static obstacles. within the first stage, regarding the static obstacles we develop a method that searches the workspace for the shortest possible path between start and goal configurations by constructing a graph on a portion of the confi...

An Experiment with Computer-Supported Cooperative Work: Shared Workspace

Supporting cooperative working using shared notebooks

This paper discusses the use of a shared cooperative notebook by a group of software engineers and support staff distributed over two sites The designof the notebook is described and results of the pilot trial reported It was found that the system was an effective means of shanng information for the non-technical staff but required much greater integration with other information systems and the...
