Targeted Project 1
CATS: COLLABORATIVE SPACES
The scientific challenges addressed by this project come from a change of scale along the following 3 dimensions of collaboration spaces: 1) diversity of users, 2) diversity of interaction devices/modalities, and 3) complexity of datasets, tasks and environments. A fourth challenge is to handle the dynamic transitions between collaboration spaces. This challenge requires an integrative approach with the 3 dimensions of a collaboration space. Indeed, the fundamental research question is to design collaboration spaces that allow for continuous and seamless collaboration in order to unify remote and face-to-face collaborations, tightly coupled and loose collaborations, as well as group collaborations, in spontaneous subgroups or asides.
The expected breakthrough is the definition of mixed collaboration spaces where users are in full control and that provide rich and flexible multi-user experiences.
