- 概要
- This paper introduces TeamWorkStation (TWS), a new desktop real-time
shared workspace characterized by reduced cognitive seams. TWS integrates
two existing kinds of individual workspaces, computers and desktops, to
create a virtual shared workspace. The key ideas are the overlay of
individual workspace images in a virtual shared workspace and the creation
of a shared drawing surface. Because each co-worker can continue to use
his/her favorite application programs or manual tools in the virtual shared
workspace, the cognitive discontinuity (seam) between the individual and
shared workspaces is greatly reduced, and users can shuttle smoothly
between these two workspaces.
This paper discusses where the seams exist in the current CSCW
environment to clarify the issue of shared workspace design. The new
technique of fusing individual workspaces is introduced. The application
of TWS to the remote teaching of calligraphy is presented to show its
potential. The prototype system is described and compared with other
comparable approaches.
