  • Abstract
    One of the main difficulties faced by a research group is how to accomplish the evaluation of groupware tools and prototypes in order to verify if they answer the hypotheses outlined at the beginning of the investigation. The CSCW Lab is an approach for applying evaluation methodologies in the context of a groupware research group. In this paper, we present an ontology for groupware evaluation where we establish the main concepts related to the evaluation processes and to the major dimensions of groupware evaluation.
