AREA: A cross-application notification service for groupware
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents AREA, an integrated synchronous and asynchronous notification service for awareness information. AREA uses a semantic model of the client applications to support cross-application awareness. The service is based on the dichotomy of interest and privacy Notifications of user activities are a function of relevance in the current work situation and the privacy requirements of the involved users The paper motivates the AREA framework and discusses the system in terms of its formal modeling capabilities and its operational aspects This is followed by practical implementation considerations addressing the role of AREA as a groupware infrastructure Finally, a prototype groupware application is presented, which uses the AREA service to support user awareness

متن کاملWhat Synchronous Groupware Needs: Notification Services
Synchronous groupware is the class of applications in which two or more people collaborate in what they perceive to be real time. Most previous efforts to deploy synchronous groupware have failed. I argue that: synchronous groupware can often be deployed independently of system support for audio, video, or persistent storage; deployment and maintenance of different synchronous groupware app...
متن کاملTowards Model Checking Stochastic Aspects of the thinkteam User Interface FULL VERSION
Stochastic model checking is a recent extension of traditional model-checking techniques for the integrated analysis of both qualitative and quantitative system properties. In this paper we show how stochastic model checking can be conveniently used to address a number of usability concerns that involve quantitative aspects of a user interface for the industrial groupware system thinkteam. thin...

متن کاملBeyond 'Yes or No' – Extending Access Control in Groupware with Awareness and Negotiation
We present three scenarios concerning access to documents in three real world fields of application, which have in common that they are very difficult to support with classical anticipative access control systems. We show, how based on a highly configurable notification and negotiation service, which is tightly integrated with a classical access control system – the common permission and denial...
