چکیده

There are a variety of diierent CSCW applications for group collaboration. Among others, systems for asynchronous coordination as well as synchronous multiuser editors are current research topics. Each system has its advantages. Thus, combining the advantages of such systems should be even more advantageous. We have developed a new object-oriented, asynchronous activity support system, called TACTS, and a new synchronous multiuser editor, called IRIS. We explain how both systems can be combined using the underlying state models, and show the advantages of the combination.

Adding eyebrows to CSCL; understanding the combined use of synchronous and asynchronous communication, and the role of motivation in computer-supported collaborative learning

This dissertation addresses the combined use of asynchronous and synchronous communication in online computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) and the relation with students’ motivation. Previously, online communication had been asynchronous and text-based. Technological developments have recently made it possible to support online learning processes by the use of rich synchronous commun...

Dimensions of Collaborative Work

Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) systems are often distinguished by the time and space proximity of their intended users. A four-quadrant graphic is often used to show the possible combinations: synchronous -co-located, synchronous -remote, asynchronous -co-located, asynchronous -remote. We argue that several dimensions other than time and space are critical to consider. In particular...

DisTriB: Distributed Trust Management Model Based on Gossip Learning and Bayesian Networks in Collaborative Computing Systems

The interactions among peers in Peer-to-Peer systems as a distributed collaborative system are based on asynchronous and unreliable communications. Trust is an essential and facilitating component in these interactions specially in such uncertain environments. Various attacks are possible due to large-scale nature and openness of these systems that affects the trust. Peers has not enough inform...

Using Electronic Communication Tools in Online Group Activities to Develop Collaborative Learning Skills

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of using synchronous and asynchronous communication tools in online group activities to develop collaborative learning skills. An experimental study was implemented on a sample of faculty of education students in Mansoura University. The sample was divided into two groups, a group studied using synchronous communication tools, and the othe...
