Internet technology has enabled basic communication infrastructures to facilitate people working together collaboratively over space and time. However, as Gutwin and Pinelle [1] point out, using these applications have proven much more difficult in enabling effective collaboration within and among enterprises than some Internet advocates would suggest. Researchers need tools to quantify the progress towards developing useful collaborative systems, as well as methods ....

....an event occurs, but not for a long time, how is the effectiveness of the system measured In addition, those metrics difficult to control and measure are often underreported in the literature. As identified last year, there are many methods and techniques for evaluating collaborative enterprises [1]. However, many of the methods, such as data logging and visualization tools, are in their developmental stages and need to become more robust. Intelligent data logging is on the horizon and should contribute to better, more streamlined data analysis. The theme that groupware would prevail in our ....

INTRODUCTION Evaluation of groupware has received attention from researchers in the Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) and groupware communities, e.g. [1,14,16]. However, evaluation is still considered a difficult problem [8] and many researchers feel that the only way to get a true picture of a groupware system is to study it in an actual context with real users.

These experiences are similar to other field based methods, which are often costly to implement and analyze, e.g. [12,14]. However, these approaches provide an understanding of users in their own environments and provide clues about critical aspects of the real work situation that can be used to increase the realism and relevance of a usability test [19] Our user based study revealed how the welding team members ....
