and road map -- An introduction to CSCW -- Foundations of scientific cooperation -- Today's organisational and technical environment for scientific cooperation in Europe -- An European “Collaboratory” for supporting scientific cooperation -- Implications of the “E-Collaboratory” for a future European computing and network infrastructure -- Migrating towards an European scientific collaboratory -- Concluding remarks and future directions.
This monograph presents the still young, but already large and very active interdisciplinary realm of computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) in a systematic and well-balanced way. Besides technical progress also the cultural, social, legal, psychological and economic aspects of CSCW are discussed. The book makes accessible a wealth of information and culminates in the development and detailed discussion of a "Collaboratory" suitable to fulfil the needs of scientific cooperation in Europe. The book addresses CSCW research and development professionals as well as the general scientist interested in CSCW-based scientific cooperation. The bibliography with its more than 600 entries and the subject index are particularly comprehensive and helpful.
