2. 1. Managers' Cooperative Work Practices in Computational Artefacts-Supported Library Systems

   Author : Niki Chatzipanagiotou; Anita Mirijamdotter; Jaime Campos; Christina Mörtberg; Ulrika Lund Snis; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Work Practice; Cooperative Work; Cooperative Work Practices; Computational Artefacts; Computer-Supported Cooperative Work; Articulation Work; Awareness; Appropriation; Ethnography; Focused-Ethnography; Fieldwork; Vignettes; Complexity; Managers; Management; Libraries; Academic Library; Academic Library Managers; Informatik; Information Systems;

   Abstract : The dissertation presents understandings of the complex, contextual, cooperative everyday work practices of academic library managers supported by computational artefacts, as well as challenges disrupting their practices and thereby computational artefacts usage. The doctoral research approaches and conceptualises managers’ work as ‘everyday cooperative practice’, in this way adopting the computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) approach. READ MORE

4. 2. Cooperative Communications : Link Reliability and Power Efficiency

   Author : Tafzeel ur Rehman Ahsin; Ben Slimane; Xavier Lagrange; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cooperative Communications; Link Reliability; Power Efficiency; Energy Efficiency; Network Coding; Cooperative Relaying; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

   Abstract : Demand for high data rates is increasing rapidly for the future wireless generations, due to the requirement ofubiquitous coverage for wireless broadband services. More base stations are needed to deliver these services, in order tocope with the increased capacity demand and inherent unreliable nature of wireless medium. READ MORE

5. 3. Getting engaged in cooperation : Design, distance, and distributed work

   Author : Mårten Pettersson; Daniel Spikol; Martin Wetterstrand; Kari Rönkkö; Teresa Cerratto-Pargman; Malmö universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cooperative work; distributed collaboration; computer-supported cooperative work; engagement in cooperative work; shared materials and artefacts;

   Abstract : Cooperative work differs depending on contexts and tasks, whether co-located, synchronous, or distributed in time and space. New technology allows new opportunities to support cooperation. A central aspect of cooperation is the relation to individual work; when co-located, people enter and exit cooperation seamlessly.

6. 4. Movement and experimentation in young children's learning : Deleuze and Guattari in early childhood education

   Author : Liselott Olsson; Gunilla Dahlberg; Marianne Bloch; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; preschool; subjectivity; learning; movement; experimentation; micropolitics and segmentarity; transcendental empiricism; event; assemblages of desire; Pedgogical work; Pedagogiskt arbete;

   Abstract : This study departs from experiences made in a setting where preschool children, teachers, teacher students, teacher educators and researchers in the Stockholm area in Sweden have been collectively experimenting with subjectivity and learning since the beginning of the 1990’s. However, during later years, questions were raised in the context of cooperative work about the changes that have been achieved so far, possibly becoming new and somewhat rigid ‘mappings’ of young children and learning.

7. 5. Using Technologies with Care : Notes on Technology Assimilation Processes in Home Care

   Author : Carl Johan Orre; Mikael Wiberg; Andrew Monk; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Home care; Mobile ICT; Assimilation processes; Cooperative work; Work ecologies; Orchestration; Workplace studies; CSCW; Informatics and systems science; Informatik och systemvetenskap;

   Abstract : Elderly care is currently undergoing a phase of development in which new technologies are anticipated to increase efficiency, secure quality of services and give care assistants more time with the elderly people. This thesis reports on a study of how people involve technologies in everyday home care work. READ MORE
