With their framework as a starting point, the project will go onto apply this to a virtual-collaborative team in order to discover which factors within collaboration need to be supported by group-ware solutions.

A design speci cation and prototype system based on these requirements was then developed, these were evaluated and showed a reduction in con ict between collaborating distributed team members.
