Abstract :
Computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) research is the discipline that explores how to utilize computing and networking technologies to facilitate cooperation and collaboration among people. A variety of research has been conducted on CSCW architecture. However, how to ensure CSCW system effectiveness and efficiency on supporting collaboration remains a challenge. In this paper we present a rule mitigated framework for CSCW applications. This research contributes to the state of the art by presenting a robust and comprehensive architecture to support distributed collaboration.
