Descripción
La investigación en este laboratorio busca facilitar, mediante el uso de tecnología, el trabajo de colaborativo entre personas. Esta área, más conocida por sus siglas en inglés (CSCW - Computer-Supported Cooperative Work), puede considerarse como una rama específica de desarrollo de software, que incluye una o más de las siguientes características: desafíos de diseño asociados a objetivos organizacionales, dinámicas de grupo, comunicación, coordinación y colaboración entre personas, resolución de conflictos y toma de decisiones, contexto social de las actividades, y efectos positivos y negativos de la tecnología en tareas, grupos y organizaciones. Las actividades de investigación en este laboratorio van desde la realización de estudios de campo para concebir diversos tipos de sistemas colaborativos, hasta el diseño e implementación de prototipos de dichos sistemas.
