This research is funded under the Special Initiative on Coordination Theory and Collaboration Technology. This is one of eleven winners under that competition. The object of this research effort is to exploit a wholly new interactive window concept, already experimentally implemented in the laboratory, as a basis for construction of flexible new forms of collaboration environments. These environments will allow collaborators to work within a shared information space whose structure adjusts easily to and whose visual form naturally expresses the inherent structure of their collaboration. The first stage of this research is to define and implement a basic collection of functions in an interactive zoomable window system. This system will then be extended across a network, thereby making available a shared information space which will allow an arbitrary number of users to work in a common virtual environment, each possibly enjoying a different view of this environment. Then a series of experiments to test the real benefit to collaborators will be conducted.

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。这项研究的目的是开发一种全新的交互窗口概念，作为构建灵活的新形式协作环境的基础，该概念已经在实验室中进行了实验实施。这些环境将允许合作者在一个共享的信息空间内工作，该信息空间的结构很容易调整，其视觉形式自然地表达了他们协作的内在结构。本研究的第一阶段是定义和实现交互式可缩放窗口系统中的基本功能集合。然后，该系统将扩展到整个网络，从而使共享信息空间可用，这将允许任意数量的用户在共同的虚拟环境中工作，每个用户可能对该环境有不同的看法。然后，将进行一系列实验，以测试合作者的真正好处。
