Fran\c{c}oise D\'etienne (INRIA)

TL;DR
This paper examines collaborative design, emphasizing how task interdependencies and multiple perspectives influence cooperative processes like coordination, common ground establishment, and negotiation to improve design outcomes.
Contribution
It highlights the intrinsic characteristics of collaborative design and analyzes the specific cooperative processes involved in managing interdependencies and perspectives.
Findings
Coordination processes are crucial for managing task interdependencies.
Establishing common ground facilitates effective perspective integration.
Negotiation mechanisms support the confrontation and combination of diverse viewpoints.
Abstract
This paper focuses on two characteristics of collaborative design with respect to cooperative work: the importance of work interdependencies linked to the nature of design problems; and the fundamental function of design cooperative work arrangement which is the confrontation and combination of perspectives. These two intrinsic characteristics of the design work stress specific cooperative processes: coordination processes in order to manage task interdependencies, establishment of common ground and negotiation mechanisms in order to manage the integration of multiple perspectives in design.
