The incorporation of peer code reviews as being part of a developer's work flow, and hence the software development lifecycle, has steadily grown in popularity over the past three decades. During the process of statically inspecting code, developers of a codebase are able to collaboratively detect possible code defects, as well as use code reviews as a means of transferring knowledge to improve the...
In this paper, we conducted a review of techniques and methods used for collaborative data management for business purposes on the WEB. The aim was to propose a document flow optimization and to offer an information technology support for all departments of an organization. In a business organization or a firm, professionals involved in solving specific tasks either use the same data (common information)...
Inexpensive displays make large, tiled displays attractive for visual analysis and collaborative investigation. Especially in multi-user environments, the increased space allows to better organize the findings and results and, therefore, helps to improve collaboration. One important requirement is that all users can navigate seamlessly on the whole display space, while employing the standard software...
This paper presents GitBull tool as a source code hosting web application tailored for the university ecosystem. GitBull introduces the ideology of open source software development. The main aim of GitBull is to fill the gap between how students work on software development projects in university and how software is being developed in the work environment. GitBull helps students use source code versioning...
Grid computing and cloud technologies are used for distributed computing in scientific domains like physics, chemistry, biology, meteorology, earth sciences, engineering, industry, and even in army. In this paper the current status of Grid and High Performance (HPC) activities in RO-16-UAIC site will be presented. It is underlined the infrastructure and the results recently obtained at the RO-16-UAIC...
In computer supported cooperative work (CSCW), users work together from remote locations where each of them performs specific roles. However, their roles are dynamic and they change their roles more often as compare to co-located environments. The process of changing roles is known as role transition. Role transition process basically determines who is authorized to trigger for changes, who is mandated...
The use of Project Based Learning has spread widely over the last decades, not only throughout countries but also among disciplines. One of the most significant characteristics of this methodology is the use of ill-structured problems as central activity during the course, which represents an important difficulty for both teachers and students. This work presents a model, supported by a tool, focused...
In this paper, we present a computer assisted creativity tool based on natural interfaces that allows the creation of distributed collaborative workspaces by merging the real and digital worlds in a tabletop setting. These workspaces are used to promote the exchange and sharing of graphical information by simulating a physical workbench where designers traditionally work with paper sketches, images,...
A Grid system is a promising solution for sharing distributed resources of registered participants to perform tasks whose demands may exceed the capacity of individual participating organization. However, the collaborative aspect of Grids is still underdeveloped as they lack features and mechanisms for human interaction and collaboration. This paper presents a prototype system for collaborative task...
The goal of this study was to investigate the efficient use of role-taking embodied conversational agents in the facilitation of creative cognition during collaborative activities. Two factors were investigated through an experimental design addressing the number of conversational agents (one vs. two), and method of communication (voice vs. text). Participants engaged in a simple interpretation game...
SmartRoom is a system supporting collaboration activities localized in a room: a set of digital services is available for organizers and participants. The Smart-M3 platform is used to set up a networked knowledge sharing environment on top of which the SmartRoom service set is deployed. In this paper we introduce the methodology and design of the SmartRoom system. We consider realization of digital...
Web-based applications offer a range of the benefits over traditional desktop applications; they are good for wide accessibility, platform independence, rich user experience, dynamic content, high scalability easy-to-share, and easy-to-use. This paper proposes a web-based framework of multimedia support for collaborative editing. A transmission protocol that integrates OT with the consideration of...
Engaging students in active learning is an important challenge in today's classrooms. The proposal presented in this paper aims to take advantage of the benefits offered by new technologies in order to increase creativity and expressiveness in educational environments. In order to achieve this, we have designed and developed a system that allows the use of creative learning techniques such as Brainstorming...
This paper focuses on solving problems of the existing Grid Portal scalability, portability and adaptability. To overcome the weakness of collaborative services ability in different grid portal, a new grid portal architecture based on CSGPA (Collaborative Services Grid Portal Architecture), is proposed. The CSGPA is built on the basic of OGSA (Open Grid Services Architecture). It divides the grid...
Virtual collaboration is an important aspect for the success of scientific projects, especially if participating researchers are distributed over the whole globe. In the recent past some systems -- so called virtual research environments -- were presented to support collaborative work restricted to certain research domains. Within this article a concept of a generic framework for building personal,...
Along with collaborative development in Java development, collaborative remote debug without sharing all the source code becomes a new requirement. Current approach wastes too much time in network communication and is also constrained by network port. This paper proposes a system and method to support multiple-party collaborative remote debug without sharing all the source code and without port constraint...
In the structure 1 of Collaborative e-Commerce, information is the key for users to learn all sorts of information about people and system in this environment, which is also an important factor being considered in the process to materialize such a Collaborative e-Commerce environment. This paper presents the analysis of traits of information in Collaborative e-Commerce environment, its forming process...
In the emergency rescue process after disaster arriving, ARGIS can provide accurate rescue data for rescuers and command center in time and make rescuers and command center work in collaboration. Consequently, it can raise emergency response's speed and rescue efficiency. For getting emergency rescue spatial data on the disaster area quickly and improve rescue collaboration ability, this paper discusses...
With the rapid development of communications through computers and internet technology, the study of new knowledge has been onto a new stage. Hence technology supported study has become more and more important, which will lead the study in the future. Collaborative study platform based on campus network is one of the crucial techniques. Based on analysis of relevant study in and abroad on collaborative...
Computation time and communication cost increase continuously when the requests for services increase. To keep systems offering a good level of computation, we need to deal with these two parameters in distributed systems. Service oriented computing can be used to participate and divide jobs between computers in a network to improve computing speed. This article introduces a service-oriented approach,...
