  1. 1. Shared Virtual Environments : Technology, Social Interaction, and Adaptation over Time

    Author : Maria Spante; Erik Stolterman; Institutionen för teknik och samhälle Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Shared virtual environments; virtual reality technology; social interaction; adaptation; collaboration; time; Informatik; Informatics;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates social interaction and adaptation over time in shared virtual environments. Shared virtual environments (SVEs) are computer generated 3D graphical spaces where geographically distributed people can meet and interact with each other in a graphical space. READ MORE

  2. 2. The Usability of Collaborative Virtual Environments: Towards an Evaluation Framework

    Author : Ilona Heldal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; use; social interaction; effectiveness; interaction via technology; presence; collaboration; Virtual environments; evaluation; usability; immersive;

    Abstract : Collaboration is often a necessity in order to reach one's goals in society, organizations, or among individuals. Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs) can be used as a medium supporting communication and interaction between people. READ MORE

  3. 3. Designing to Support Workspace Awareness in Remote Collaboration using 2D Interactive Surfaces

    Author : Khanh Duy Le; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : Increasing distributions of the global workforce are leading to collaborative workamong remote coworkers. The emergence of such remote collaborations is essentiallysupported by technology advancements of screen-based devices ranging from tabletor laptop to large displays. READ MORE

  4. 4. Actors in Collaboration: Sociotechnical Influence on Practice-Research Collaboration

    Author : Marisa Ponti; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Actor-Network Theory; Collaborative Work; Information Science; Practice-Research Gap; Socio-technical Paradigm; Virtual Organization; actor-network theory;

    Abstract : There has long been a concern about the research-practice gap within Library and Information Science (LIS). Several authors have highlighted the disconnection between the world of professional practice, interested in service and information system development, and the world of the academy, focused on the development of theory and the progress of the discipline.
