Designing Amplified Collaboration Environments for Scientific Visualization  

Park, Kyoung-Shin (한국정보통신대학교 디지털미디어연구소)
Abstract
Amplified Collaboration Environment(ACE) is a display-rich project room that enables distributed teams to intensively work together to solve a complex problem. This paper presents reviews of some most important shared workspace models in real-time collaboration systems. It then describes a set of iterative design studies of evaluation the shared workspace for ACEs. The study involved small groups of users in two ACEs performed a collaborative visualization and analysis task while varying the display technology configuration. The goal of this study was to enhance intensive collaborative work in ACEs. The results showed that the participants benefited from the ability to see others' work over the high-resolution shared workspace, which helped enhance group awareness and performance.
