Abstract:
COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
FUNDAÇÃO PADRE LEONEL FRANCA
Nesta tese é proposto um processo de desenvolvimento de groupware (software para dar suporte ao trabalho em grupo). O processo proposto é resultado de oito anos de experiência com o desenvolvimento dos serviços do ambiente AulaNet, e mais especificamente, dos cinco anos de pesquisa e desenvolvimento de versões do Mediated Chat. As boas práticas aprendidas ao longo destas experiências foram incorporadas no processo: uso do Modelo 3C de Colaboração para guiar o desenvolvimento de groupware, desenvolvimento evolucionário focando um problema por versão num processo investigativo, e desenvolvimento baseado em componentes e orientado ao reuso. O processo aqui proposto, denominado RUP-3C-Groupware consiste na extensão do RUP, Rational Unified Process, na qual foram incorporadas as boas práticas aprendidas. Na tese são apresentados os fluxos de atividades e os artefatos estendidos ou elaborados para o RUP-3C-Groupware. Para investigar o processo proposto, foi realizado um Estudo de Caso onde alunos de Engenheira de Software executaram algumas das atividades produzindo alguns artefatos-chave. Do estudo de caso foram obtidos indícios sobre a repetitividade do processo e de sua adequação para o desenvolvimento de groupware.
A groupware (group work support software) development process is proposed in this thesis. This process is the result of eight years of experience with the development of services for the AulaNet environment, and more specifically of five years researching and developing Mediated Chat tool versions. The good practices learned through these activities were incorporated into the process proposed: the use of the 3C Collaboration Model to guide groupware development, evolutionary development focusing on a single problem per version in an investigative process, and reuse-oriented component- based development. These practices were used to guide the specification of the RUP, Rational Unified Process, resulting in the new process, namely the RUP-3C- Groupware. The new or extended RUP-3C-Groupware workflows and artifacts are presented. This process was investigated through a case-study in which Software Engineering students performed certain activities producing a few key- artifacts. From this case-study some indications regarding process repetitiveness and its suitability to groupware development were obtained.

Abstract:

TOUCHE (Task-Oriented and User-Centered process model for developing interfaces for Human-Computer-Human Environments) is a process model for software development created to develop groupware. The creation of TOUCHE is part of a research project carried out at three Spanish universities. The aim of the project is to create a complete process model for the development of usable groupware. This thesis is part of this project and aims to further advance the TOUCHE process model so that it fulfills its aim on developing for usability. The thesis is based on research from the HCI (Human-Computer Interaction) and CSCW (Computer-Supported Cooperative Work) fields. In the thesis a new version of TOUCHE is created which has a strong focus on developing for usability.This is done by selecting four principles from the HCI field, incorporating what is considered to be most important when developing for usability. The principles are a strong focus on, and the involvement of users throughout the whole process, an iterative process, multidisciplinary design, and aim for groupware usability. TOUCHE is analyzed from these principles and missing elements are identified. The difficulties of integrating these elements into TOUCHE are discussed and finally elements are chosen to be integrated into TOUCHE. These elements include a usability guide, evaluation cycles, prototyping, pre-documentation and a multidisciplinary team.

Abstract:
The objective of this research is to design and build a groupware system which will allow members of a distributed group more flexibility in performing software inspection. Software inspection, which is part of non-execution based testing in software development, is a group activity. The groupware system aims to provide a system that will improve acceptability of groupware and improve software quality by providing a software inspection tool that is flexible and adaptable. The groupware system provide a flexible structure for software inspection meetings. The groupware system will extend the structure of the software inspection meeting itself, allowing software inspection meetings to use all four quadrant of the space-time matrix: face-to-face, distributed synchronous, distributed asynchronous, and same place-different time. This will open up new working possibilities. The flexibility and adaptability of the system allows work to switch rapidly between synchronous and asynchronous interaction. A model for a flexible groupware system was developed. The model was developed based on review of the literature and questionnaires. A prototype based on the model was built using java and WWW technology. To test the effectiveness of the system, an evaluation was conducted. Questionnaires was used to gather response from the users. The evaluations ascertained that the model developed is flexible and adaptable to the different working modes, and the system is capable of supporting several different models of the software inspection process.

Abstract:
Computers are valuable tools for a wide range of work tasks. A substantial limitation on their value, however, is the predominant focus on enhancing the work of individuals. This fails to account for the issues of collaboration that affect almost all work. Research into computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) aims to eliminate this deficiency, but the promise of computer systems for group work has not been met. This thesis presents four design principles that promote the development of successful groupware. The principles identify the particular problems encountered by groupware, and provide guidelines and strategies to avoid, overcome, or minimise their impact. Derived from several sources, the major influence on the principles development is an investigation into the relationship between factors affecting groupware failure. They are stimulated by observations of groupware use, and by design insights arising from the development of two groupware applications and their prototypes: Mona and TELEFREEK. Mona provides conversation-based email management. Several groupware applications allow similar functionality, but the design principles result in Mona using different mechanisms to achieve its user-support. TELEFREEK provides a platform for accessing computer-supported communication and collaboration facilities. It attends to the problems of initiating interaction, and supports an adaptable and extendible set of "social awareness" assistants. TELEFREEK offers a broader range of facilities than other groupware, and avoids the use of prohibitively high-bandwidth communication networks. TELEFREEK demonstrates that much can be achieved through current and widely accessible technology. Together, Mona and TELEFREEK forcefully demonstrate the use of the design principles, and substantiate the claim of their utility.

Die Nutzung von Groupware zur Unterstützung virtueller Gemeinschaften ist auf dem Gebiet des Computer Supported Cooperative Learning (CSCL) mittlerweile selbstverständlich. Es werden sowohl synchrone als auch asynchrone Tools mit einem jeweils unterschiedlichen Umfang an Funktionalitäten genutzt. Eine wesentliche Voraussetzung für den Einsatz von Groupware-Tools im CSCL-Bereich ist ein tragfähiges pädagogisches Konzept und eine fundierte Auswahl der einzelnen Tools. Im Bereich Groupware herrscht einerseits eine hohe Dynamik und andererseits existiert eine Vielfalt an komplexen und differenzierten Tools mit divergierenden Einsatzmöglichkeiten. Damit wird die adäquate und abgestimmte Nutzungskonzeption der Tools zu einer didaktisch-methodischen Herausforderung.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the usage problems of Online Collaborative Groupware (OCG) tools for learning at the University of Bahrain (UOB) in the Kingdom of Bahrain. An initial study revealed that the main problems faced by students when they use OCG tools in the learning process are security and trust. SWFG (Skype, Wiki, Facebook, and Gmail) tools were proposed as being effective and commonly used OCG tools for learning. A quasi-experiment has been done with UOB students to identify the perceptions of the students towards security, privacy and safety relating to use of SWFG tools. Based on this experiment the researcher has derived the following results:  Secure Skype has a positive relationship with Skype usage;  Private Skype has a positive relationship with Skype trust;  Secure Gmail has a negative relationship with Gmail usage and trust;  Wiki usage has a negative relationship with trust in Wikis. Additionally, the research revealed that students may be more motivated to use OCG tools if the security and privacy of these tools was to be improved. The thesis also focuses on security and trust within email. In order to evaluate the usage of secure emails, students‘ awareness of the secure email awareness was investigated using quantitative and qualitative methods. The results of this evaluation informed the design of an experiment that was then conducted by tracking secure email usage and gathering information about the students‘ usage and awareness of their secure emails. The aim of this activity was to identify a clear representation of secure email usage over specified periods for both academic and non-academic purposes by students in both the UK and Bahrain. It has been concluded from this experiment that there are differences between the usage of secure email in each country when applied to both academic and non-academic purposes. Finally, based on these results, the researcher developed a framework which derives from the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) model by testing security and trust effects on the ease of use and on usefulness. A case study has been conducted using a new secure email instructional model in order to validate the research framework. The study found that security provided by webmails and students‘ trust affects the webmail‘s perceived usefulness, and that in turn this leads to ease of use regardless of which type of email client is used. However, it was not proof that usefulness affects the usage of email. Evidence suggests that the model may be a suitable solution for increasing the usefulness of email in Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL), and can help to strengthen communication between faculty and students. This study has contributed valuable knowledge and information in this particular field of study. It has been able to gather a satisfactory amount of information from both students and teachers in both the University of Bahrain (UOB) and the University of Warwick (UOW). A number of different methods were used in this task – interviews, questionnaires, observations, experiments and student feedback, amongst others. The entire study was conducted in a way that it would empirically evaluate different dimensions of secure Online Collaborative Groupware (OCG) tools usage in the educational environment. The research framework applied in this investigation provided many insights into OCG tools. These new insights and information may be used to test and validate the framework with a large number of students.

As abordagens pedagógicas na maioria das universidades não são compatíveis com o contexto dinâmico das comunicações na denominada learning society - sociedade aprendente. Essa realidade educacional produz, um empobrecimento didático-pedagógico, provocando uma ruptura entre os espaços real e virtual de produção, construção e disseminação do conhecimento, na universidade. Embora existam muitas pesquisas e soluções disponíveis nesta área, encontram-se algumas poucas experiências pedagógicas baseadas no uso das tecnologias digitais da informação e comunicação na universidade. Entre essas merecem especial destaque, aquelas que utilizam tecnologias de groupware em abordagens pedagógicas de aprendizagem colaborativa na modalidade semipresencial. Neste trabalho realizou-se um estudo de caso de uma experiência pedagógica baseada na utilização de tecnologias de groupware, em uma abordagem didática do tipo: aprendizagem colaborativa semipresencial, desenvolvida em uma classe de alunos de graduação no curso de ciências contábeis da Faculdade Fundação Visconde de Cairu, na cidade de Salvador-Bahia, durante o primeiro semestre letivo de 2003. Buscou-se, principalmente conhecer as possibilidades e dificuldades que possam existir no desenvolvimento da aprendizagem colaborativa, baseada na utilização de tecnologias de groupware. O resultado obtido na pesquisa permitiu-nos perceber que a metodologia, em estudo tem boa aceitação por partes dos alunos e consolida ganhos pedagógicos fundamentais ao influenciar as dinâmicas colaborativas de aprendizagem. Revelou-se a demanda de uma infra-estrutura tecnológica de conexão à internet, atendida ainda de forma incipiente pela universidade. Evidenciou-se também, que a utilização das tecnologias de groupware por alunos e professores abre novos campos de possibilidades pedagógicas, ampliando as comunicações entre ambos. Este último aspecto exige dos docentes novas competências didático-pedagógicas, além de proficiência tecnológica específica para o desenvolvimento de tais abordagens pedagógicas através do uso das tecnologias de groupware. Com base nos conhecimentos obtidos neste estudo e através de pesquisa de desenvolvimento foi elaborado um projeto de curso de qualificação de professores para utilização da metodologia didática de aprendizagem colaborativa semipresencial, através da utilização das tecnologias de groupware. Conclui-se que a utilização das tecnologias de groupware muito tem a contribuir para a consolidação de abordagens pedagógicas mais coerentes com as dinâmicas relacionais no contexto da sociedade aprendente. Tais contribuições precisam ser ampliadas, construídas e conhecidas para que se possa redimensionar a práxis pedagógica obsoleta, ainda presente na maioria das nossas universidades.

Abstract:
This study addresses the issue of groupware choice in two different kinds of companies, IT- companies and industrial companies. Our main goal is to find out whether the companies? type effects the choice of groupware. We have conducted qualitative interviews as well as sent out quantitative questionnaire in order to fulfil our goals. The result indicates that there is a connection between groupware choice and company type among the companies participating in our study. IT- companies tend to use single function groupware applications while industrial companies choose multifunction groupware applications. This can have a number of reasons, for instance that IT- companies want detached programs since they would not make use of all programs within a multifunction groupware application. It can also be that industrial companies want easier systems, that contain programs with a friendlier user interface.

This project investigated an Agile Development Process for groupware on theWeb 2.0. The process has its based in different technologies, especially those of the Scrum agile method, integrated with functional testing at the acceptance level. To assist this integration, we established a greater intercommunication between the process disciplines, using the User Stories as artifacts in all disciplines. The process aims to take advantage of the agility of the Scrum without losing quality in the development of applications. It was developed based on the Scrum process, with the addition of technologies that support the creation and use of artifacts in the search for integration with functional testing. The process uses three disciplines, each one refining the User Stories, which occur in different degrees of abstraction throughout the development. These stories should be a most faithful portrait possible of user needs and are used both in the form of cards (Story Cards), for requirements specification, and in an executable format to guide the implementation and work as functional testing. Mockups are used to complement the requirements specified in the cards, assisting in the task of representing the requirements. This set is the basis for the creation of User Stories in executable format. Other modeling artifacts, like Class Diagram, can also be specified in order to elicit requirements of the application. The procedure is supported by tools developed to enable the integration of the functional tests. These tools define a tests specification language to write User Stories, created as a DLL for Visual Studio, and a converter of these User Stories for functional testing in C# code. Thus, the proposed process provides a greater integration of tests during the development and execution of each discipline in order to produce higher quality applications. To test the process, applications were developed in the domain of groupware in Web 2.0. The adoption of this area was motivated by the idea of exploring the development of collaborative software that supports group work of people involved in common tasks.
Este projeto pesquisou um Processo de Desenvolvimento Ágil para groupware na Web 2.0. O Processo tem suas bases em diferentes tecnologias, destacando-se as do método ágil Scrum, e é integrado com testes funcionais a nível de aceitação. Para auxiliar essa integração, estabeleceu-se uma maior intercomunicação entre as disciplinas do processo, utilizando as Histórias do Usuário como artefatos em todas as disciplinas. O processo visa à tirar proveito da agilidade do Scrum, sem perder qualidade no desenvolvimento das aplicações. Foi desenvolvido tendo como base o processo Scrum, adicionado de tecnologias que apoiam a criação e utilização de artefatos na busca para integração com testes funcionais. O processo utiliza três disciplinas (Comunicação, Modelagem e Construção), cada uma refinando as Histórias do Usuário, que ocorrem em diferentes graus de abstração ao longo do desenvolvimento. Essas histórias devem ser um retrato mais fiel possível das necessidades do usuário e são utilizadas tanto no formato de cartões (Cartões de História), para a especificação de requisitos, quanto em um formato executável para orientar a implementação e trabalhar como testes funcionais. Mock-ups são utilizados para complementar os requisitos especificados nos cartões, auxiliando na tarefa de representar os requisitos. Esse conjunto é a base para a criação das Histórias do Usuário no formato executável. Outros artefatos de modelagem, como o Diagrama de Classes, também podem ser especificados, para elicitar os requisitos da aplicação. O Processo é apoiado por ferramentas desenvolvidas para possibilitar a integração de testes funcionais. Essas ferramentas definem uma linguagem para especificação de testes para escrever as Histórias do Usuário, criada como uma DLL para o Visual Studio, e um conversor dessas Histórias do Usuário para testes funcionais em código C#. Assim, o processo proposto estabelece uma maior integração dos testes durante o desenvolvimento e execução de cada disciplina, visando a produção de aplicações com maior qualidade. Para testar o processo, foram desenvolvidas aplicações do domínio de groupware na Web 2.0. A adoção desse domínio foi motivada pela ideia de explorar o desenvolvimento de software colaborativo que apoia o trabalho em grupo de pessoas envolvidas em tarefas comuns.

Abstract:
Despite the proliferation of large-scale displays in the workplace, creating groupware applications that take advantage of their potential for collaboration and communication remains a challenge. Interactions with large displays yield user experiences that are quite different from interaction with conventional desktop groupware. Thus, unique hurdles exist for designing and deploying large display groupware applications (LDGAs) that are useful and adopted into actual work practice In this dissertation we uncover and address some of the primary challenges for large display groupware applications though the design, development, deployment and evaluation of LDGA systems, as well as through the analysis of existing deployed LDGA systems. We present novel LDGA designs that address the issues of information awareness and informal communication through the use of large shared displays in workplaces and describe the findings from evaluations of their deployments. We then discuss a broad study of several existing LDGAs that we conducted and a framework of adoption challenges that we subsequently derived. We describe the application of this framework to the design a large display groupware application for supporting lightweight communication among workgroup members. We also present a field study of the use of LDGAs within the context of multi-display environments, looking specifically at the display technologies used by NASA scientists and engineers for the Mars Exploration Rover (MER) missions. This work uncovers how the display environment provides flexible support for science tasks as collaboration styles and mission goals evolve. We offer suggestions for how LDGAs should be designed and evaluated in light of our findings regarding the roles of LDGAs within an ecology of displays. Finally, we use the results of this evaluation as input for further refining our framework for LDGA adoption challenges.

Abstract:
Current shared file systems (NFS and SAMBA) are based on the local area network model. To these file systems, performance is the major issue. However, as the Internet grows, so does the distance between users and the Local Area Network. With this increase in distance, the latency increases as well. This creates a problem when multiple users attempt to work in a shared environment. Traditionally, the only way to collaborate over the Internet required the use of locks. These requirements motivated the creation of the State Difference Transformation algorithm that allows users non-blocking and unconstrained interaction across the Internet on a tree based structure. Fine Grain Locking, on the other hand, allows a user the ability to set a lock on a character or range of characters while using a form of the transformation algorithm listed above. This thesis proposes an implementation that integrates these two technologies as well as demonstrating the effectiveness and flexibility of State Difference Transformation. The implementation includes two applications that can be used to further research in both the transformation and locking communities. The first application allows users to create tests for SDT and Fine Grain Locking and verify the correctness of the algorithms in any given situation. The second application then furthers this research by creating a real-world groupware interface to a shared file system based on a clientserver architecture. This implementation demonstrates the usability and robustness of these algorithms in real world situations.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract This thesis contributes to the field of collaborative information systems and Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW). It extends the notion of technological support for design activities "in use" beyond providing the flexibility to tailor collaborative software, to provide means to support the appropriation process of these tools in their application fields. Two long-term studies on the evolution of usages of collaborative software in a German authority and in a network of freelancers in the field of consulting form the foundation of this work. Based on the experience there, it was possible to identify user activities that drive the appropriation process and to establish a perspective on the appropriation of a Groupware as a social process. Appropriation can be described as a collaborative effort of end users, who perform "appropriation activities" to make sense of the software in their work context. Besides activities to configure the software to fit into the technological, organisational and individual work context of the users ('Tailoring'), there is a larger area of technology-related communication, demonstration and negotiation activities aimed at establishing a shared understanding of how a software artefact works and what it can contribute to the shared work context. The mutual shaping of the technology and organisational contexts resemble an ongoing design process that end users perform largely without any involvement of professional developers. This perspective is the guiding line for developing means for "Appropriation Support", i.e., means to support the appropriation activities that end users perform. To inform the design of appropriation support measures and functions, current approaches that capture the collaborative dimensions of tailoring, and the necessities of 'discourse ergonomics' for technology-related online communication are explored. The trend to work with a tool 'infrastructure' instead of monolithic Groupware tools is a complicating yet important secondary consideration here, since it demonstrates the necessity to offer support 'beyond one tool' to support a use-oriented perspective on appropriation. The resulting idea of 'Use Discourse Environments' as a main concept for appropriation support which captures the activities of communication, demonstration and negotiation as well as the activity of tailoring (where possible) was implemented and evaluated in two prototypes that refer to the application fields of the initial studies. The idea of integrating online discourse, tool representations and tailoring facilities served as a guideline for the use discourse both in an event notification service as well as in the 'Online Future Workshop' that addressed a shared inter-organisational software development infrastructure. Based on the evaluations, design recommendations for appropriation support are made, and the problematic nature of appropriation activities as 'infrastructural work' versus the 'productive work' that end users consider their main area of work is addressed. The thesis concludes with a vision of collaborative software tools that do not only provide their original services, but also address end users as a 'virtual community of technology practice'.

Abstract:
Groupware was developed to address the limitations of existing Information Technologies in facilitating an increased level of collaboration in todays' customer focused industries. These systems are a hybrid between a database, to organise and store previously unstructured knowledge, and an e-mail system, to disseminate this knowledge across entire organisations. Lotus Notes has become the recognised industry standard for a Groupware system, providing an application development platform on which can be built a company's knowledge infrastructure, and the research concentrates on this system. Groupware systems are not designed to replace existing technologies, rather supplement them by capturing the information outwith the structure that they impose, and there are many applications where the implementation of a Lotus Notes application is not feasible. A review of the literature revealed that there is a limited amount of guidance on what constitutes a suitable candidate for implementation. From an analysis of the functionality of the system, the research develops a detailed reference model of the ideal Lotus Notes application, in order to provide a method of rapidly assessing the suitability of a potential application to the implementation of Groupware. Three case studies are presented, utilising the reference model to identify suitable candidates and following the implementation of these through to a point where the results can be assessed, providing a level of validation for the developed model. The case studies provide the opportunity to highlight methods of overcoming the potential barriers to success, revealed by an audit against the reference model. This experience is collected together as design guidelines, cross-referenced against the reference model. The overall result being the production of a series of tools, and a methodology for their use, intended to facilitate the implementation of successful Groupware applications, maximising the benefit that an organisation can achieve from its investment in new technology.

Groupware síncronos de aprendizagem são sistemas colaborativos desenvolvidos especialmente para dar suporte a processos de ensino-aprendizagem em grupo. Nestes sistemas, a percepção que os seus usuários têm das atividades e ações desenvolvidas é fundamental para melhorar a eficiência e a compreensão do processo de colaboração a distância, pois esta permite uma interação mais natural e eficiente entre os mesmos. Entretanto, apesar de sua importância, o suporte à percepção é ainda muito limitado nos groupware síncronos de aprendizagem. A grande maioria destes sistemas não oferece mecanismos que permitam que seus usuários (alunos e/ou professores) percebam e compreendam o que está acontecendo nos ambientes distribuídos e no próprio contexto do grupo de aprendizagem como um todo, ocultando assim muitas informações que estariam disponíveis num encontro face-a-face. Essa deficiência, além de reduzir a possibilidade de coordenação e interação entre os alunos, dificulta a ação didática. Neste trabalho identificamos requisitos que orientem a proposta de mecanismos de percepção, que incentivem a interação e auxiliem o aluno na realização de atividades colaborativas síncronas de aprendizagem. Nesse contexto, propomos uma classificação para mecanismos de percepção e identificamos os principais tipos de percepção necessários em uma situação de aprendizagem colaborativa síncrona. A metodologia utilizada neste trabalho aplicou uma abordagem centrada no usuário, a qual envolveu um conjunto de ações: análise de competidores, análise da tarefa e um experimento realizado com um grupo de dez professores do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública da cidade do Recife. O experimento realizado teve como objetivo identificar as dificuldades e necessidades de percepção dos usuários na realização de atividades colaborativas síncronas distribuídas. Os dados coletados no experimento foram transcritos e analisados qualitativamente. Apresentamos como resultado deste trabalho requisitos de percepção para groupware síncronos de aprendizagem, aliado a isto, apresentamos também um conjunto de protótipos de mecanismos de percepção criados para exemplificar propostas que buscam atender a esses requisitos

Groupware é evolutivo e é difícil de construir e de manter, e acaba tendo um código desorganizado e difícil de evoluir. Nesta tese é proposta uma abordagem de desenvolvimento de groupware baseado em componentes concebidos em função do modelo 3C de colaboração. No modelo 3C, a colaboração é analisada a partir da comunicação, coordenação e cooperação. Na abordagem proposta, partese das necessidades de colaboração do grupo, analisadas com base no modelo, e componentes de software também organizados em função do modelo são utilizados para compor a solução. Como estudo de caso, a abordagem é aplicada no desenvolvimento da nova versão do ambiente AulaNet, cujo código padece dos problemas mencionados anteriormente. Neste estudo de caso, são desenvolvidos component kits para instanciar os serviços de comunicação do ambiente. Os componentes possibilitam compor, recompor e customizar os serviços de modo a refletir alterações na dinâmica de colaboração.
Groupware is evolutionary and difficult to develop and maintain. Thus, its code becomes unstructured and difficult to evolve. In this thesis, a groupware development approach based on components organized according to the 3C collaboration model is proposed. In this model, collaboration is analyzed based on communication, coordination and cooperation. Collaboration necessities of the group, analyzed based on the 3C model, are mapped to software components, also organized according to the model, in order to compose the system. The proposed approach is applied as a case study to the development of the new version of the AulaNet environment. The environment´s code currently suffers the mentioned problems. In order to instantiate the communication services of the environment, for the case study, 3C based component kits were developed. The components allow the composition, re-composition and customization of the services in order to reflect collaboration dynamics changes.

Pesquisa que estabelece conjecturas sobre aprendizagem e viabilidade de um processo de mudança na sociedade de informação. Esta tese também procura levantar algumas questões fundamentais acerca do uso da Aprendizagem Significativa e dos mapas conceituais em atividades da Engenharia de Produção e, em particular, da Ergonomia. Três partes compõem a revisão bibliográfica: 1)Contribuições de autores consagrados em Estratégia e Economia da Inovação, descrevendo as prováveis características de evolução das estruturas de companhias que agirão no ambiente da sociedade da informação; 2)Estabelecimento de conceitos relativos à abordagem societécnica, ao groupware e à organização do trabalho; 3)Análise de abordagens teóricas concernentes às estruturas e à aprendizagem das instituições que sustentam o conhecimento nos países ocidentais e asiáticos. Abordam-se então dois modelos de desenvolvimento industrial e tecnológico, nos níveis macroeconômico, meso e microeconômico. O modelo oriental apresenta propriedades comuns às características institucionais que sustentam o conhecimento em regiões do sudeste asiático e do Japão. O modelo ocidental comporta semelhanças com as características institucionais que emergem na Europa Ocidental e nos Estados Unidos. O primeiro modelo é explícito em relação à exploração de conhecimento tácito, enquanto o segundo é governado pela permanente necessidade de reduzir a importância de conhecimento tácito, transformando-o em informação - quer dizer, em conhecimento explícito, bem estruturado e codificado. Finalmente, sob a ótica do modelo da firma fora do equilíbrio, avalia-se a consistência das predições exibidas nesta tese, especialmente a existência dos custos irreversíveis como uma forte restrição dinâmica, que pode influenciar de maneira considerável a formulação das estratégias das companhias industriais e de serviços. Concluindo, face aos riscos e oportunidades trazidos pela revolução das Tecnologias da Informação e da Comunicação (TICs), o uso inteligente das TICs deveria ser preferencialmente considerado como uma infra-estrutura de apoio à formação e ao uso de conhecimento tácito.

Abstract:
Groupware applications allow geographically distributed users to collaborate on shared tasks. However, it is widely recognized that groupware applications are expensive to build due to coordination services and group dynamics, neither of which is present in single-user applications. Previous collaboration transparency systems reuse existing single-user applications as a whole for collaborative work, often at the price of inflexible coordination. Previous collaboration awareness systems, on the other hand, provide reusable coordination services and multi-user widgets, but often with two weaknesses: (1) the multi-user widgets provided are special-purpose and limited in number, while no guidelines are provided for developing multi-user interface components in general; and (2) they often fail to reach the desired level of flexibility in coordination by tightly binding shared data and coordination services. In this dissertation, we propose a component-based approach to developing group- ware applications that addresses the above two problems. To address the first prob- lem, we propose a shared component model for modeling data and graphic user inter- face(GUI) components of groupware applications. As a result, the myriad of existing single-user components can be re-purposed as shared GUI or data components. An adaptation tool is developed to assist the adaptation process. To address the second problem, we propose a coordination service framework which systematically model the interaction between user, data, and coordination protocols. Due to the clean separation of data and control and the capability to dynamically "glue" them together, the framework provides reusable services such as data distribution, persistence, and adaptable consistency control. The association between data and coordination services can be dynamically changed at runtime. An Evolvable and eXtensible Environment for Collaboration (EXEC) is built to evaluate the proposed approach. In our experiments, we demonstrate two benefits of our approach: (1) a group of common groupware features adapted from existing single- user components are plugged in to extend the functionalities of the environment itself; and (2)coordination services can be dynamically attached to and detached from these shared components at different granules to support evolving collaboration needs.

Abstract:
This master thesis describes our work with Team Sweden and how we have attempted to perform a Software Process Improvement using groupware. Team Sweden is a distributed academic software development organization doing research on artificial intelligence and robotics. Such an organization has a lot to gain from the introduction of a more structured process model. We have investigated the possibility of supporting the development processes of a small software development organization by introducing groupware. Only introducing a groupware tool or technique is not enough to improve the processes of an organization. Process improvement requires an infrastructure and groupware could be a useful tool for establishing it. Improved communication and knowledge sharing through groupware can be beneficial for establishing a process infrastructure. Groupware should be used in conjunction with other process improvement measures in order to be effective and improve the capability of the targeted organization.

Abstract:
For the majority of the computers existence, we humans have interacted with them in a similar way, usually with a strict one-to-one relationship between user and machine. This is reflected by the design of most computers, operating systems and user applications on the market today, which are typically intended to only be operated by a single user. When computers are used for teamwork and cooperation, this design philosophy can be restricting and problematic. This paper investigates the development of shared software intended for multiple users and the impact of the single user bias in this context. A prototype software system was developed in order to evaluate different development methods for shared applications and discover potential challenges and limitations with this kind of software. It was found that the development of applications for multiple users can be severely limited by the target operating system and hardware platform. The authors conclude that new platforms are required to develop shared software more efficiently. These platforms should be tailored to provide robust support for multiple concurrent users. This work was carried out together with SAAB Air Traffic Management in Växjö, Sweden and is a bachelor's thesis in computer engineering at Linnaeus University.

Abstract:
A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo identificar e explorar uma metodologia na área de Trabalho Cooperativo Apoiado por Computador (Computer Supported Cooperative Work – CSCW), que aborda processos colaborativos unindo indivíduos, assim como grupos, para que possam trabalhar em conjunto visando metas comuns, estando fisicamente ou não no mesmo local, atuando de forma síncrona ou assíncrona. A metodologia proposta procura reunir o conhecimento de várias pessoas sobre determinados temas, por meio de um sistema de comunicação em rede de computadores, transformando o grupo de indivíduos em uma única voz, sendo o sistema o Interlocutor do grupo. O Sistema Interlocutor funciona em rede e depende de três módulos: o Interrogador que é a comunicação com o meio externo, o Colaborador que é o canal para participação dos membros do grupo, e o Servidor que controla o funcionamento de todo o aplicativo. A metodologia Interlocutor é inspirada em conceitos extraídos de várias áreas tais como Inteligência Coletiva, método Delphi, estrutura de Comitês, Sistemas de Apoio à Decisão (Group Decision Support System - GDSS), Grupos de Trabalho (Groupware) entre outros. Esta metodologia pode ser empregada em situações críticas, que demandam respostas rápidas e precisas, ou mesmo em contextos planejados nos quais se deseja estudar alternativas detalhadamente. Na presente tese são apresentados três possíveis cenários de aplicação da metodologia proposta, bem como possíveis configurações para futuros estudos mais apurados. São apresentados ainda os resultados dos testes efetuados em um desses cenários que validaram a metodologia. Em conclusão, a metodologia Interlocutor é uma forma para a criação e o funcionamento de sistemas capazes de obter resultados de Inteligência Coletiva.
The present research aims to identify and to explore a methodology in the area of Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), encompassing cooperative processes that joint individuals, as well as groups, in a way that they can work seeking common goals together, being or not physically in the same place, acting synchronously or asynchronously. The proposed methodology searches to gather the several people's knowledge on certain themes, through a communication system in net of computers, transforming the individuals' group in a single voice, being the system the Interlocutor of the group. The Interlocutor System works in net and it depends on three modules: the Interrogator that it is the communication with the external middle, the Collaborator that it is the channel for participation of the members of the group, and the Servant that controls the operation of the whole application. The Interlocutor Methodology is inspired in extracted concepts of several such areas as, among others, Collective Intelligence, method Delphi, structure of Committees, Group Decision Support System (GDSS), Groupware. This methodology can be used in critical situations, that demand quick and necessary answers, or even in planned contexts in which it is wanted to study alternatives in full details. The present thesis presents three possible sceneries of application of the proposed methodology, as well as possible configurations for futures approaches. It is also presented the results of the tests made in one of these sceneries that validated the methodology. In conclusion, the Interlocutor Methodology is a form for the creation and the operation of systems capable to obtain results of Collective Intelligence.
