Criteria Catalogue for Collaborative Environments

Computer supported collaborative work supports the interaction and joint task solving between humans by setting a machine or computer in-between. Similarly, collaborative environments support decision-makings incorporating different points of view and a variety of competences. As such, the identification and selection of the underlying requirements involved in collaboration is a challenging task. In order to facilitate this task, we performed a thorough literature review with the aim to discern such requirements. The result is a set of qualitative criteria that can be applied to generic computer supported collaboration environments. Furthermore, the mapping of the generic catalogue to a specific collaboration task is demonstrated.
