Integrating VR in an Engineering Collaborative Problem Solving Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an environment for executing engineering simulations and visualizing results in a Virtual Environment. The work is motivated by the necessity of finding effective solutions for collaboration of team workers during the execution of complex Petroleum Engineering projects. By means of a Scientific Workflow Management System users are able to orchestrate the execution of different simulations as workflow tasks that can be arranged in many ways according to project requirements. Within a workflow, as its last step, the most interesting cases can be selected for visualization in a distributed collaborative session.

We present an experiment that investigates the behaviour of small groups of participants in a wide-area distributed collaborative virtual environment (CVE). This is the third and largest study in a series of experiments that have examined trios of participants carrying out a highly collaborative puzzle-solving task. The results reproducing those of earlier studies suggest a positive relationshi...
