Distributed teamwork gained significant importance within the last years. With team members collaborating from different locations, the role of workplace communication dramatically changed. Besides task-related communication, especially informal communication and awareness are important requirements for successful teamwork. While goal-oriented information exchange is widely supported by existing communication technologies, social communication is not.
Carsten Röcker presents a novel approach for promoting informal interactions and awareness within distributed project teams. The author starts by outlining the characteristics as well as problems of multi-site teamwork and identifies the communication requirements of distributed teams. Based on these requirements, specific design guidelines for multi-user awareness systems are defined. In order to validate the guidelines, different communication tools are developed and tested in several evaluations.
