Abstract :
We have developed a hypermedia environment for global collaboration by knowledge workers, which consists of two modules: InterPOD and TeamSmart. InterPOD creates a “meeting room” environment for participants to access and share multimedia information from various sources, while the TeamSmart hypermedia tool supports collaboration on document production by globally dispersed teams
