This project will build and validate a typology of collaboration types associated with cyberinfrastructure (CI) use in the conduct of science. The research focuses on documents and documenting practices as important windows into the socio-technical arrangements of scientific teams. A large number of virtual scientific collaborations will be studied and compared using a mix of text mining, social network analysis and qualitative methods. The research will result in: (1) a detailed compendium regarding what document infrastructures scientists build to support their virtual organizing and documenting practices and (2) specific design principles for the distributed, social and technical aspects of scientific work. The findings will have implications for better design and management of virtual scientific teams and for CI to support scientific endeavors.

该项目将建立并验证与在科学行为中使用网络基础设施（CI）相关的协作类型的类型。研究的重点是文件和记录实践作为科学团队的社会技术安排的重要窗口。大量的虚拟科学合作将使用文本挖掘、社会网络分析和定性方法进行研究和比较。这项研究将产生：(1)关于科学家建立什么样的文档基础设施来支持他们的虚拟组织和文档实践的详细纲要；(2)科学工作的分布式、社会和技术方面的具体设计原则。这些发现将对更好地设计和管理虚拟科学团队以及CI支持科学努力产生影响。
