Which of the following best describes what you
are building for this program (please feel free to
elaborate):
* infrastructure for collaborative environments
* tools to aid in development of collaborative systems or tools
Which of the following IC&V program objectives
will your research results support:
* Enable interoperability across diverse encoding formats, co-ordination and consistency protocols, and real-time services
* Scale collaborations to 10 active collaborators, 100 questioners, and 1000 observers
* Reduce by an order of magnitude the time needed to generate collaborative applications
Who do you see as the users of your products--please give more specifics, if possible:
* DOD:
* Office workers:
* Managers:
* Software Engineers:
When will your research "product" be ready to share with potential end users (in the lab, in the field:)
* Within the next 6 months
* Within 1-2 years
What information from potential end users would assist you in developing and refining your system?
Difficulty of Installation
Utility of infospace that can be setup
When evaluating the utility of your product, what will be your measures of success?
Reducing time of async. Collaboration in software development.
Sizing the workgroup from 10s to 100s with parallel tracks & across abstraction hierarchies
What can the Evaluation Working Group provide that would assist you in your testing and evaluation (check as many as apply):
* Access to end users for design, testing or discussion
* HCI and usability experts
* Logging capabilities to capture data on usage
* Simulation suites, e.g., to simulate network loading
Where do you see relationships between your system or research product and others in the IC&V program?
