These systems, which enable asynchronous yet potentially rapid textual interaction between individuals or groups, can be integrated with other functions of computers such as word processing or information retrieval to create a powerful support system for information workers. A substantial body of literature supports the general finding that managers and professionals spend a large proportion of their work day in communication-related activities, as much as 79 to 80 percent (Bair, 1979; Klemmer \\& Snyder, 1972; Mintzberg, 1973; Ruchinskas, 1982). Because the managerial and professional labor force represent the greatest proportion of costs for labor, and the bulk of their time is spent communicating, improvements in the process of communication should have the greatest payoff to organizations. The argument is made by proponents of new office technologies that computer-mediated systems of communication can overcome many of the inefficiencies of communication in the work place, leading to significant increases in productivity (compare Bair, 1979; Uhlig, Farber, Bair, 1979).", } @INCOLLECTION{Rice86:Group, AUTHOR="Ronald E.

Groups of three members were asked to reach consensus on career choice problems; they communicated face-to-face and in simultaneous computer-mediated discussions or through computer mail. When groups were linked by computer, group members made fewer remarks than they did face-to-face and took longer to make their group decisions. Social equalization was higher in computer-mediated groups in that group members participated more equally in discussions. Computer-mediated groups also exhibited more uninhibited behavior --- using strong and inflammatory expressions in interpersonal interactions. Decisions of computer-mediated groups shifted further away from the members' initial individual choices than group decisions which followed face-to-face discussions.

Smith", TITLE="Communication Quality in Information Systems Development: The Effect of Computer-Mediated Communication on Task-oriented Problem Solving", SCHOOL="North Texas State University", PAGES=189, YEAR=1986, KEYWORDS="computer conferencing", ABSTRACT="The problem motivating this research is that ineffective communication may hamper systems development efforts. Specifically germane to this study are development efforts characterized as task-oriented, and which require information-sharing and problem-solving activities. This research problem motivated an analysis of the communication process and lead to the development of a temporal framework that delineates variables associated with task-oriented, and user/systems analyst communication interactions. Several variables within this framework are depicted in two theoretical models. The first model shows the theoretical relationship between an independent variable, communication mode (represented by asynchronous computer conferencing and face-to-face conferencing), and five dependent variables: (1) the amount of information shared, (2) the significance of the information shared, (3) the comprehensiveness of the information shared, (4) the perception of progress toward the goal, and (5) the perception of freedom to participate. The second model depicts the assumed interaction between communication mode, the five variables cited above (now acting as independent variables), and a dependent variable, communication quality. There are two theoretical components of communication quality: (1) deviation from an optimal set of user requirements, and (2) the degree of convergence (unity based on mutual understanding and mutual agreement) emanating from a communication interaction. Using the theoretical models as a guide, an experiment was designed and performed to test the relationships among the variables. The experimental results led to the rejection of all null hypotheses; the results strongly favored face-to-face conferencing for solving task-oriented, information sharing problems analogous to the case used in the present study. The findings indicate that asynchronous computer conferencing may have a detrimental effect on the thoroughness of information exchange, on the relevance of the information shared in terms of making the correct decision, and on the completeness of the consideration given to all problem dimensions.", } @ARTICLE{Levi86:Marshall, AUTHOR="Paul Levinson", TITLE="Marshall McLuhan and Computer Conferencing", JOURNAL=ieeepc, VOLUME="PC-29", NUMBER=1, PAGES="9-11", YEAR=1986, KEYWORDS="computer conferencing", ABSTRACT="Marshall McLuhan's writing style has long been a source of fascination and frustration to the scholarly community. Instead of sequentially developed paragraphs and chapters, McLuhan's work often took the form of numerous free-standing commentaries, usually not more than a few pages in length, each self-sustaining yet revolving around some sort of central theme. This ``holographic'' style turns out to have much in common with the commentaries produced by participants in a computer conference, where individuals engage in multi-dimensional dialogues through comments of usually 20-60 lines of length around several related themes. The similarities in the textures of computer conferences and the books of McLuhan - who know nothing about computer conferencing when he wrote his books - help us better understand both the computer conference as a literary form and the style of McLuhan. The electronic group production of dialogue fulfills McLuhans's oft stated desire to overcome the boundaries of static print on a page, and shows that literacy may actually be promoted rather than eclipsed by the electronic revolution (author abstract).

The ``acquired'' wisdom of many different groups using EIES since its 1976 initiation are summarized. LEADERSHIP CHARACTERISTICS. The most effective moderator style is group-oriented (rather than authoritarian), and s/he includes all conference members interested in the formation of policy and moves them to consensus. The moderator of a active task-oriented conferences should spend 30 min or more on line each day. Effective moderators must exert strong organizational pressures and also be familiar with the technology; if the do not have time or experience they should not take on the role of moderator. The moderator should set the agenda and keep the group moving toward its goal. FACE-TO-FACE. Group training prior to conferencing can be valuable if time and money permit. This sets the stage for a ``working relationship'' and uses the conferencing for the communication techniques. Time should be allowed for socializing and ``getting to know one another'' as well as outlining the task and getting exposure to the technology. The ideal session would be about 1.5 days and allow about 5 hrs on line. Structure. The moderator should prepare a group message with initial instructions on procedures (first task might be to send a message to the moderator, then introduce themselves, comment on initial definition of the task). The moderator should clarify the structure of the conferencing system (e.g., mail vs conferencing). Specific tasks of moderators are given. ACTIVITIES. The moderator should set agendas, indexing comments by keywords or by making summaries. The moderator should welcome new members, provide initial items, see members develop their resumes, build some ``social'' fabric (host an on-line party - optimum size is 10-15 is all are making entries), delegate responsibilities, provide positive feedback to members and create a climate that adds to self-esteem, control the process so ``loud'' users are calmed down and ``quiet'' users are drawn out, and keep the comments flowing. Time should be set aside to ``self analyze'' the conference and redirect efforts as appropriate. A list of incentives for participation is provided.", } @ARTICLE{Feen86:Operating, AUTHOR="Andrew Feenberg", TITLE="Network Design: An Operating Manual for Computer Conferencing", JOURNAL=ieeepc, VOLUME="PC-29", NUMBER=1, PAGES="2-7", YEAR=1986, KEYWORDS="computer conferencing", ABSTRACT="The communcations revolutions of the last century have so far enhanced one-to-one contacts (e.g., telephone) and mass broadcast (e.g., radio and television). Yet, the small groups in which most of our daily activities go on have been largely unaffected. Computer conferencing addresses that ``last frontier''. This paper briefly reviews computer conferences and how they differ from regular meetings, and describes steps to be taken for a successful conferencing implementation. Communication by computer conferencing is different than ``natural'' communications (e.g., one gets verbal and non-verbal cues by setting in a group). At the time of computer communication, no objective context my be present for guidance. Thus, computer conferencing does not ``just automate meetings'', but requires careful DESIGN AND LEADERSHIP to replace an old and familiar communicatons system. Computer conferencing works with four elements (plus moderating as a fifth): HARDWARE. A central computer and local terminals or personal computers. SOFTWARE: Both host and terminal software affect use and interaction. Conferencing systems which are complex to learn but have powerful features may not be as ``useful'' as simple to learn with ``adequate'' features. Methods of composing off-line and minimizing communications costs are helpful. GROUPWARE: A word coined by Peter and Trudy Johnson-Lenz, a combination of group processes AND software that make up the conferencing system. How are conferences structured (few, many)? How is conference moderation accomplished (see below). CONTEXTUALIZATION. Computer conferencing is weak on ``context'' compared to the more familiar communications methods. The absence of tacit cues and coded objects threatens participants and may leave them speechless. This can be addressed by bringing the participants together to discussed the common interests and procedures, materials may be mailed to participants, telephone calls can be used to contact members, and the conferences themselves can be made context sensitive by the way opening comments are made and follow-up statements used. MODERATING. The moderator is extremely important to computer conferencing. A short check list would include 1) setting the conference contents, 2) setting the norms and procedures, 3) setting the agenda and flow of topics, 4) recognition of members contributions, 5) prompting members to address certain issues, 6) weaving themes or summarizing the state of discussion, and 7) meta-commenting (remarks directed at changing the context or agenda of conference). groupware (number of conferences offered, norms established for groups), and contextualizations (especially designed opening statements, integration of mail and conferencing). Suggestions for workstations and methods of allowing ``browsing of the text'' are provided. CONCLUSIONS. We can summarize five principles: 1) computer conferencing is a new technology for effective interactive communication in small groups, 2) several types of conferences are available (based on subject, project, or group needs), 3) many ordinary conventions and rituals of small group communications are lost in computer conferencing (and must be addressed artificially), 4) this new type of communication must be organized and sustained by designers and moderators, and 5) successful implementation involves both communications knowledge and computer knowledge by the installing group.", } @ARTICLE{Pull86:Chit, AUTHOR="J.

Several locations were linked together and use ranged from ``chit-chat'' to information exchange to refereed papers. The paper describes low, moderate, high use groups (in terms of frequency of signin and of length of session). Examples of conferences are: peer review of articles, journal of abstracts were readers could post comments, poster papers (pre-publication papers for early comment), full papers (for reading), and newsletter. In addition, several ``information'' conferences or seminars were run, lasting from 1 day to several months (of variety of topic, including teaching students). Specific roles taken by coauthors are: project organizer, timescale watcher, absent co-author (keeps track of who is available), phase directors, writing team, section writer, and planning team. Recommendations for improvement include: 1) encourage the initiation of discussion by greater allocation of roles and leadership forms, 2) put summaries of previous discussions into the conference at periods relating to normal access, so members do not have information overload in catching up, and 3) if a newsletter is available have it tied to the average access pattern.

Based on experiences with the PARTI software at the New York Institute of Technology, examples of written conference material are presented. Some ``definitions'' users have formed about computer conferencing are: - talking in writing. - running a debate in a journal's ``notes and queries'' section, but without the tedium of having to wait for each new monthly number. - a panel discussion in slow motion. - writing letters which are mailed over the telephone. Computer conferencing encourages what feels like intimate, conversational discourse, yet, because it is ``many-to-many'' it requires the same attention to form as the familiar essay. It is ``in between'' the forms we are used to. The paper discusses computer conferencing behavior and compares it to some other methods of communication. Computer conferencing also allows some graphic representation (e.g., 'grin' after a statement indicates humor, \#\$\%\# indicates 'oh darn' and so on). In general, computer conferencing forces ``equality'' of the members; it makes for more ``democratic'' discussion. Beginners tend to be passive and shy, while they assimilate the etiquette before they participate. Some experienced users sometimes focus too much on the text, rather than the reader (again showing the need for feedback). There is a need for METACOMMUNICATON (or talking about communication). This provides the ``threads'' that hold the discussion together, helps provide the cues that are lacking in non-face-to-face meetings, and really takes advantage of the ``transcript'' available in computer conferencing. Computer conferencing in NOT just another form of writing. But we must strive for clarity and precision of language (keeping informal), use effective language, and occasionally avail ourselves to graphic representation.", } @INPROCEEDINGS{Supp86:Communication, AUTHOR="J.

The author, who participated in the development of the above mentioned documents, discovered that many who attempted a thorough reading of them, either for implementing the Session layer or for a better understanding of the protocol, had a number of questions regarding the interpretation of the documents. There are two principal reasons for these difficulties. First, the state table description of the protocol in Appendix A of ISO 8326 and ISO 8327 is not formal, and thus subject to different interpretations. Second, there are actions which are not explained in Appendix A, but rather are described in the text. This means that even after having solved all questions related to Appendix A, one cannot be sure that an implementation is in fact correct. This paper is intended as an aid in interpreting the documents, and to correlate the plain text description to the state table description.", } @TECHREPORT{Geih86:Distributed, AUTHOR="Kurt Geihs and H.
