Helping CSCW applications succeed
This study found that the use of a computer conferencing system in an R&D lab was significantly shaped by a set of intervening actors---mediators---who actively guided and manipulated the technology and its use over time.

Modifying CSCW Environments Dynamically for Supporting Virtual Enterprises
In CSCW environments data and operations can be shared by users and/or they can have their own defined data and operations which may not be shared by other users.

GROUP'99 - Conference Description
GROUP ?99 provides a forum for researchers and practitioners who are interested in topics related to computer-based systems which have an impact on groups, organizations and social networks. Relevant issues include design, implementation, deployment, evaluation, methodologies, and effect of these systems.

CSCW Evaluation in Five Types
One of the potentially confusing aspects of evaluation within computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) is that there are many activities one might wish to carry out at different times that evaluate socio-technical systems. I identify five ideal types: the effects of a new computer system in an organisation; the formative development of a piece of software; the evaluation of conceptual developments; the evaluation of a cooperative system where factors other than the computers are more interesting; and the determination of which piece of software to buy.
