DMC-Distributed and Mobile Collaboration Workshop Report

Recent distributed and mobile collaboration technologies enable people to work in nomadic, dynamic teams. In these teams, team-members frequently join and leave the team, change their geographic location, or invite external experts to contribute their expertise. Therefore, the ability to query the company´s distributed knowledge base and the search for experts in a specific domain even across enterprise boundaries are key requirements for systems supporting knowledge workers. To enable the collaboration across enterprise boundaries, many recent systems take advantages of Semantic Web technologies.
