Computer Supported Co-operative WorkMichel Beaudouin-Lafon Top-notch support for cooperative software activities. Since CSCW systems are distributed and often require near real-time response capabilities over wide area networks, CSCWs must be fault-tolerant and have the capacity to run in heterogeneous environments.
