Book Description
This comprehensive introduction to the field represents the best of the published literature on groupware and computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW). The papers were chosen for their breadth of coverage of the field, their clarity of expression and presentation, their excellence in terms of technical innovation or behavioral insight, their historical significance, and their utility as sources for further reading. Taken as a whole, the papers and their introductions are a complete sourcebook to the field. This book will be useful for computer professionals involved in the development or purchase of groupware technology as well as for researchers and managers. It should also serve as a valuable text for university courses on CSCW, groupware, and human-computer interaction.

Organizational Learning and Technological Change
Author: Cristina Zucchermaglio
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642795501
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
What the Book Is About This book is about the problem of organizational learning, that is the analysis of organizations conceived as learning systems. In order to survive in a period of a rapid change, organizations must innovate and than to develop and exploit their abilities to learn. The most innovative organizations are those that can respond with great efficiency to internal and external changes. They respond to and generate technological change by acting as effective learning systems. They maximize the learning potential of ongoing and "normal" work activities. The organizational structure and the technology allow members to learn while the organizations itself learns from its members. So organizations reach high levels of innovation when structured to take advantage of the social, distributed, participative, situated processes of learning developed by its members in interaction with the technological environment. Organizations should consider learning as an explicit "productive" objective. They must create integrated learning mechanisms, that encompass technological tools, reward and incentive systems, human resource practices, belief systems, access to information, communication and mobility patterns, performance appraisal systems, organizational practices and structures. The design of efficient learning organizations requires cognitive, technological and social analyses. All the computer-based technologies (e. g. office automation, communication and group decision support) not only those devoted to and used in training activities, have to be considered as tools for organizational learning and innovation.

Studies in Computer Supported Cooperative Work
Author: John M. Bowers
Publisher: North Holland
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) examines the possibilities and effects of technological support for humans involved in group communication and work processes... attention has been devoted to how humans might interact, not so much with computers, but with each other through computer based technology. Based on papers delivered at a conference topics are dealt with under six sections: the concept of CSCW; generic models and configurable systems; empirical studies of cooperative work and system use; infrastructure for CSCW; CSCW and design: principles and practices.
