.... each other; they make their activities sufficiently apperceptible for others; they take each others past, present and prospective activities into account in planning and conducting their own work; they gesture, talk, write to each other, and so on (Harper et al. 1989; Heath and Luff, 1992; Harper and Hughes, 1993; Heath et al. 1993) Accordingly, much of the research in CSCW has focused on the shallow support strategy of providing enhanced means of communication (desk top audio and video, shared displays, etc. either in order to enable actors to cooperate more effectively and efficiently in spite of ....

.... Suchman also helped establish the relationship between ethnomethodology and CSCW, and the same approach has been used by a range of researchers studying work in collaborative settings such as stock trading rooms (Heath et al. 1995) print shops (Bowers et al. 1995) and air traffic control rooms (Harper and Hughes, 1993). The ethnomethodological perspective on CSCW systems and design has continually emphasised the flexible and open ways in which working activities are organised, and the distinctions between the formal processes and procedures which are often encoded in CSCW systems and the informal, flexible and ....

....is CSCW itself, to the need for an adequate analysis of the sociality of work and organisation to underpin large scale interactive system design. To date, and in the context of system design broadly conceived, such studies have included photocopier use [29] office work [31] air traffic control [14,13], police work [1] and Underground Control Rooms [16] However, ethnography though holding much promise is still a relatively untried method in system design. It has been, and still is, strong on its critique of other methods, such as Task Analysis [9] but it has yet to prove itself within the ....
