This research is funded under the Special Initiative on Coordination Theory and Collaboration Technology. This is one of eleven winners under that competition. This project involves an integrated program of theory building, software tool development and assessment, and controlled experiments in distributed group support systems. Such systems embed group decision support system tools and procedures within a computer-mediated communication system. The primary objective of the project is to build a general theory, supported by empirical evidence, to understand how variations in group structures and software tools affect the process and outcome of decision making. This multi-disciplinary effort focusses on synchronous computer conference, in which participants are distributed in different locations, and on asynchronous computer conference, in which participation is distributed in time as well as space.

这项研究是由协调理论和协作技术特别倡议资助的。这是那次比赛的11名获胜者之一。该项目涉及分布式群体支持系统中的理论构建、软件工具开发和评估以及控制实验的综合计划。这种系统将群体决策支持系统工具和程序嵌入到计算机中介的通信系统中。该项目的主要目标是建立一个有经验证据支持的一般理论，以了解群体结构和软件工具的变化如何影响决策的过程和结果。这项多学科的努力侧重于与会者分布在不同地点的同步计算机会议，以及与会者在时间和空间上分布的异步计算机会议。
