The "Work in Preparation" (PREP) Editor: Support for Co-Authoring and Commenting

该项目的目标是开发一个“工作在 Preparation”（PREP）编辑器，一个多用户环境，支持 各种合作，特别是共同创作， 评论学术交流的关系。 编辑器 旨在促进对共同创作的深入研究， 评论本地和远程电子 网络. PI专注于学术社区，因为他们 已经是协作工作组了。 他们没有明确 围绕着单一的具体目标组织起来，但小组成员 我们有着共同的目标，那就是推进知识的发展。 等 工作组是在当地环境中组织起来的，但他们也 作为一个共同体的成员， “隐形大学。“加强这一工作的有效性， 松耦合协作是 根据这项研究开发的工具。该项目具有科学 在计算机科学、心理学和组织学中的重要性 通信 在沟通和组织心理学中， 该项目有助于进一步完善和测试 一种协作模型，说明工作时群体如何有效地互动 作为共同作者和评论者。 在计算机科学中， 项目为编辑系统提供了概念验证测试， 支持作者之间的结构化合作，以及 有效管理大量外部评论 评论者对作者的看法;工作草案。

The goal of this project is to develop a "work in preparation" (PREP) editor, a multi-user environment to support a variety of collaborative and, and in particular, co-authoring and commenting relationships for scholarly communication. The editor is designed to facilitate the intensive study of co-authoring and commenting relationships across local and remote electronic networks. The PI's focus on scholarly communities because they are already collaborative work groups. They are not explicitly organized around single, concrete goals, but members of groups share the common goal of advancing the state of knowledge. Such work groups are organized in local settings, but they also interact intensively at a distance, as members of a common "invisible college." Enhancing the effectiveness of this loosely-coupled collaboration is an important function for the tools developed under this research. The project has scientific significance in computer science, psychology, and organizational communication. In communication and organizational psychology, the project contributes to the further refinement and test of a collaborative model of how groups usefully interact when working together as co-authors and commenters. In computer science, the project provides a proof of concept test for editing systems that support structured collaboration among authors as well as the efficient management of large volumes of comments that external commenters can make of authors; working drafts.
