I need this literature for my >dissertation. You might benefit from "Organizational Memory", an article by James P Walsh and Gedrado Rivera Ungsen trying to frame this concept. Organizations is here groups of people, possibly large and distributed, sharing a common goal. In Academy of Management Review, 1991, Vol 16, No 1, p57-91. From: schmidt@uxmail.ust.hk (DR.

In addition, there is a minitrack dedicated to Organizational Memory in the Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences. If you have access to the proceedings, there were a number of interesting papers in that track last year. GDSS cultural impacts --------------------- From: MilamAiken@aiken.bus.olemiss.edu (mkaiken@aiken.bus.olemiss.edu) Newsgroups: comp.groupware Subject: Re: GDSS cultural impacts Date: 6 Sep 1994 13:57:52 GMT In article <34g2oj$1ho@search01.news.aol.com> alexiam@aol.com (AlexiaM) writes: >From: alexiam@aol.com (AlexiaM) >Subject: GDSS cultural impacts >Date: 5 Sep 1994 17:32:03 -0400 > ... > >With this in mind, do you have research, articles, people to contact which >deal with the cultural issues of GDSS? > For a discussion of and experiments involving people from the Confucian culture, see: 1. "A Comparison of Malaysian & American Groups Using a GDSS" Aiken, et al., Journal of Information Systems, in press. 2. "A Chinese GDSS" Aiken, et al., International Journal of Information and Management Sciences, in press. 3. "Using GDSS to Improve Meetings: Lessons for Korean Management," Aiken, et al., International Journal of Management, in press. I have other papers currently under review on GDSS/culture. Of particular interest, I believe, is how Japanese people use a GDSS. All experiments with the GDSS involved subjects' written native languages. I could find no other research on Confucian groups using a GDSS. Groupware Apps analysis & design -------------------------------- From: kwlyon@aol.com (KWLyon) Newsgroups: comp.groupware Subject: Re: Groupware Apps analysis & design Date: 5 Feb 1995 22:03:01 -0500 >In article <3gg65h$in4@galileo.polito.it> vacca@monviso.alpcom.it (Eugenio Vacca) writes: >>>Groupware applications are rather different from classic data >>>management systems.

Look for various references authored by Flores and/or Winograd. > Another important way in which groupware apps differ from traditional information system apps is that they deal with an entirely different set of systems. By this I mean that while traditional information systems improve our business processes, groupware improves our human collaboration processes. We've been doing the former for 50+ years now, and most everybody expects to be applying computers to business systems. (By business processes, I mean whatever processes are core to an organization; that is, that give the org its identity. So every org has it's business processes, even if it isn't a "business.") But groupware addresses collaboration processes, and few organizations focus very much attention on these processes. Obviously, these processes are necessary to get anything done, but we dont' pay attention to them. (Ask any human resources or organizational effectiveness person how much line managers pay attention to them. The answer is: "Not much!") So....any application of groupware must deal with the fact that not only do we not have much of a history of applying technology to collaboration processes, we don't have much of a history of actually doing anything to improve our collaboration processes in the first place. I see this as being much more a traditional "change management" problem than it is a technology implementation problem. I'll be giving a paper at Groupware '95 in Boston on Monday, March 6, on how to use change management techniques to get organizational buyin to groupware . Hope to see some of you there! As a resource, I'd recommend "Organizational Transitions: Managing Complex Change" by Beckhard & Harris, published as part of the Addison Wesley OD Series. Ken Kenneth W.

Date: 2 Feb 1995 14:56:38 GMT You might want to look into the working of Chiat Day advertising. They have rolled out the most hyped version of the virtual office. There was a really great article about it in I.D. [Industrial Design] last month...and also one in Wired a few months back [sorry no dates] They have taken a true look at the virtual environment both from a hardware/software viewpoint, as well as a workspace/environment point of view.

Virtual regards, Uli Schneider, Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme AG, Munich, Germany Readings in Groupware and Computer-Supported Cooperative Work ------------------------------------------------------------- From: mmorgan@mkp.com (Michael Morgan) Subject: Baecker description Readings in Groupware and Computer-Supported Cooperative Work: Assisting Human-Human Collaboration Written and Edited by Ronald M. Baecker (University of Toronto) 882 pages, 1993 ISBN 1-55860-241-0 Morgan Kaufmann Publishers 340 Pine Street, San Francisco, CA 94104 orders@mkp.com, 800-745-7323 Groupware is multi-user software that supports computer supported cooperative work (CSCW). CSCW is computer assisted cooperative activity, such as problem solving or communication, carried out by a group of collaborating individuals. Together, this technology and concept promise to revolutionize the use of computers. This book is a comprehensive introduction to this rapidly expanding field. The papers in this volume represent the best of the published literature on groupware and CSCW. They were chosen by the editor for their breadth of coverage of the field, their clarity of expression and presentation, their excellence in terms of technical innovation or behavioral insight, their historical significance and their utility as sources for further reading. Taken as a whole, the papers and their introductions are a complete sourcebook to the area. This book will be useful for computer professionals involved in the development or purchase of groupware technology as well as researchers and managers. It should also serve as a valuable text for university courses on CSCW, groupware and human-computer interaction. Expanded Table of Contents Preface Table of Contents Expanded Table of Contents I.
