Inhabited Information Spaces Living with your Data

In an era when increasing numbers of people are conducting research and interacting with one another through the internet, the study of 'Inhabited Information Spaces' is aimed at encouraging a more fruitful exchange between the users, and the digital data they are accessing. Introducing the new and developing field of Inhabited Information Spaces, this book covers all types of collaborative systems including virtual environments and more recent innovations such as hybrid and augmented real-world systems. Divided into separate sections, each covering a different aspect of Inhabited Information Systems, this book includes: How best to design and construct social work spaces; analysis of how users interact with existing systems, and the technological and sociological challenges designers face; How Inhabited Information Spaces are likely to evolve in the future and the new communities that they will create.

Riassunto

This book looks at how groups of people work together using the information contained within virtual environments, and how to improve these systems in terms of the coordination of collaborative work. It is the first overview of practical issues involved in designing and using Inhabited Information Spaces, and provides information on systems currently in use to show what works and what doesn't.
