We position the concept with respect to McGrath's framework for small group dynamics and the more familiar collaboration processes of awareness, coordination, and communication (McGrath 1991). After reviewing research issues and computer-based support for these interacting aspects of collaboration, we turn to a discussion of implications for how to design improved support for collaborative production. We illustrate both the challenges of collaborative production and our design implications with a collaborative map-updating scenario drawn from the work domain of geographical information systems.application/pdfenIn CopyrightHuman-computer interactionComputer-Supported Collaborative ProductionTechnical reportTR-06-03http://eprints.cs.vt.edu/archive/00000734/01/collabProductionSubmittedTechReport.pdf
