- Description
- This chapter traces the development of collaborative design technologies from the early applications of computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) through current developments in mobile and pervasive computing. It traces some research prototypes as well as commercial developments using two frameworks: a CSCW framework that characterizes the technologies in a time–place matrix, and a collaborative design framework that characterizes the technologies according to representation, communication, and HCI. It is seen that the CSCW framework provided a clear distinction for the early collaborative technologies, but that time and place are becoming less obvious as ways of characterizing technologies when they become mobile and pervasive. While it is still relevant if the designers are co-located or remote, and if they are communicating synchronously or asynchronously, mobile and pervasive technologies are supporting the different scenarios with the same tools and applications.
