ICT-Mediated Synchronous Communication in Creative Teamwork: From Cognitive Dust to Semantics

摘要: A substantial amount of research has focused on small group meetings and how technology can support the meetings. Many applications tools have resulted from such work but very few are used regularly because, we believe, they not flexible enough to accommodate naturally ill-structured processes "creative teams". Our aims at developing effective ICT-based for teams by understanding what is happening during creative teamwork - both human-human human-technology levels-through multimodal observational channels providing appropriate timely intervention. This paper describes infrastructure capturing ICT-mediated interactions (cognitive dust) approach transforming these low-level data into meaningful useful information (semantics), presents initial result our cognitive dust semantics.
