Abstract

The paper describes a method for modeling CSCW systems. The method is general in the sense that it caters for the entire spectrum of CSCW work and is based on both theoretical foundations as well as empiric principles. A three level model is proposed, a high level interaction model, a detailed elaboration of model constructs and behaviour based on state transitions.
