Digital Business: Conferencing and Collaboration Overview
Hinweis der Redaktion
- The term was originally used by Harvard Professor Andrew McAfee in an MIT Sloan Management Review article titled “Enterprise 2.0 : The Dawn of Emergent Collaboration”. The AIIM report tried to establish a formal definition of Enterprise 2.0 and the result from a panel of experts was the following. “ Enterprise 2.0 : A system of Web-based technologies that provide rapid and agile collaboration, information sharing, emergence, and integration capabilities in the extended enterprise.” The authors point out that the first clause in the definition “indicates that Enterprise 2.0 is a collection, not a single entity or tool, the fact that it leverages Web-based technologies, and its need for an (eco) system to thrive”. They go on to state that the terms rapid and agile implies that there is a low barrier to entry and that Enterprise 2.0 is dynamic by nature. The last part of the definition is clearly positioning the functionality within an enterprise setting (not Web 2.0). The use of “extended enterprise” also refers to the potential for collaboration between companies and their partners or customers”. Source : Frappaolo, C. (2008). Enterprise 2.0 : Agile, Emergent and Integrated AIIM, MarketIQ, 2009. Retrieved 25 July 2010, available from htttp://www.aiim.org/Research/Industry-Watch/Enterprise-20-Agile-Emergent-Integrated
- Frameworks for Enterprise 2.0 Professor McAfee offers a framemwork called SLATES. This stands for Search, Links, Authorship, Tags, Extensions, and Signals. Search : Content should be easily discoverable. Facilitated and automated location of content, so that it can be reused and leveraged. Links : Ability to create interconnections between content. “Links make it easier to repurpose content and garner greater value from it, as well as create navigation paths through content”. Authorship : Every employee/worker should be able to interact with Enterprise 2.0 systems. Interaction should not require training and should be extremely low-barrier. Tags : This relates to the use of metatags “in dynamic fashion to identify the relevance of tagged content”. Tags can be used to create taxonomies and can be combined to create a Folksonomy. Extensions : This is about the use of technology to uncover patterns of user activity. “These patterns are then provided as further insight into the knowledge base”. Signals : This is the use of technology to push content to interested parties. “Signals make the Enterprise 2.0 system proactively collaborative”.
- Oracle Beehive was previously known as Oracle Collaboration Suite and is classified as unified collaboration for the enterprise. According to the Oracle White Paper “Oracle Beehive : Unified Collaboration, Built for the Enterprise”, Beehive is the only unified collaboration system built for the enterprise. Salim Ansari of the European Space Agency in the above paper claims that “Oracle Beehive is about to revolutionize the way in which we collaborate and make a lot of tasks that we take for granted yet appear to be cumbersome, a lot easier”. In the same paper Helmut Heinrich of KUTTIG says that since they introduced Oracle Beehive they have seen a reduction of time and effort for administration by as much as 60%. He specifically states that they have saved one hour per user, per day when searching for information. The Oracle Beehive enables secure collaboration both within and outside enterprise boundaries. The Beehive can be centrally managed and audited by IT and management with the application of compliance rules to departmental and enterprise collaborative applications. Oracle. (2009).

- The Beehive can act as the underlying embedded collaborative technology within custom built applications or can be integrated into Oracle applications such as Siebel or PeopleSoft. Beehive can act as a background layer of collaborative infrastructure that is used by the application but unknown to the user. One of the main reasons quoted for the lack of uptake of conferencing and collaborations technologies is around the issues of security and compliance. Oracle Beehive was designed with security as one of the key design principles. Beehive provides standards-based authentication, role-based access control, privacy and integrity protection of data, and auditing. Oracle has integrated numerous features to address security and compliance including rules for end-of-life artifacts, integration to Oracle Universal OnLine Archive (UOA) and Oracle Universal Records Management (URM). Auditing also plays a major role and is enabled across all data and knowledge types. Oracle emphasises that the Beehive has been built from the ground up to support secure “communities of trust”.
- Medical and Scientific A 2009 paper by Wienhofen presents the Co-operation Support Through Transparency (COSTT) project . COSTT has three objectives as outlined below. COSTT - Objective #1 : Enable flexible just-in-time co-ordination of work in a highly collaborative and dynamic work environment. COSTT - Objective #2 : To achieve objective #1 the project aims to create a shared workspace that gives all the actors involved in the collaboration real-time insights into the work processes in relation to progress and possible derivations from the expected course. COSTT - Objective #3 : This objective aims to create the above insights automatically from sample data obtained from the work environment by means of sensoring and monitoring devices. COSTT is building an architecture for the perioperative environment. The complexity of the environment offers numerous challenges in relation to co-ordination and collaboration. This paper outlines the software challenges of the COSTT project and they are explained by Wienhofen in his paper. The project is at a very early stage and provides an indicator of the work that needs to be carried out in the developments of truly integrated conferencing and collaboration environments.

- OnLine Education The work of Sabin and Higgs relates to how students had adopted to the use of LearnLinc, which is a web conferencing tool that was integrated with Blackboard. Their 2007 paper “Teaching and Learning in Live OnLine Classrooms” is evidence that student populations are requesting to have a degree of synchronous interaction linked in with asynchronous learning activities. Sabin and Higgs conclude from their research survey that their students have received the “addition of a web conferencing component” to their hybrid and online programmes in a positive way. Recording of classes was also seen as an extremely positive benefit by students while the limitations of drawing with a mouse was a limiting factor identified by instructors. The authors note that further research needs to be carried out in relation to the “assessment of learning outcomes and instructional quality of live online classrooms” as compared to traditional classrooms. Commercial Trends April 26, 2010 Cisco WebEx announced special vertical applications of their conferencing services for the wealth management sector. Kirwan Datar of Cisco WebEx proposes that this sector can benefit from the personal web based interactions that can be carried out in a secure online environment. WebEx have been targeting generic value chain activities such as Sales, Support, and Event Management with their enterprise platforms. This press release may be an indication that in the future there may be specialised vertical market solutions that offer a layer of services and tools built on top of their Meeting Centre and WebEx Connect platforms
- Supply Chain Platforms : Engineering Fecondo, Perrina, Santagata and Zimeo provide a paper relating to collaborative engineering. They raise the trend towards more “disparate supply-chain entities” and discuss how collaborative engineering must manage a technically and geographically distributed value chain. Their paper, “A Platform for Collaborative Engineering” describes the Locosp (Knowledge Logistics in the Supply Chain of Product Development). Locosp is an IT platform that can link main contractors (MCs) to their value chain. The authors provide a description of the goals of any such platform for collaborative engineering. Provide interoperability between supplier and contractor IT systems that might involve multiple vendors Provide dynamic assembly of diverse supplier services, which in turn requires searchable and dynamic retrievable interfaces Provide IT system independence through loosely coupled components Provide interaction between the IT infrastructure and the myriad of existing applications, including the ability for companies to make changes quickly and easy. The graphic from the research paper presents the Supply Chain Management platform Locosp that acts as middleware for computer-aided interactions among organisations. The platform consists of the workflow enactment service, the registry match-maker service and the project repository. Fecondo, G., Santagata, A., Perrina, F., & Zimeo, E. (2006).

- There may be many questions about Microsoft decision to buy SkyPe, but one thing is for sure — it can take video conferencing and video calling to a whole different level, thanks to Kinect. If you watch these videos, you can easily imagine the future of video-based calls. You can make and receive high-quality video via the big screen televisions using broadband-connected Xbox 360 with Kinect and Microsoft Messenger. Replace the Messenger with Skype, and suddenly Kinect-based calls can go anywhere. They can start at home and end up on any device: Android, iPhone, iPad and someday on Windows Phone 7-powered phones as well. Same goes for calls emerging from your phones and ending up on the big screen. Even more immersive calling? Sure why not. At the bottom of this page is the video of an MIT Media Lab project that shows how Kinect can be used for immersive video conference calls. Microsoft’s Skype, Apple FaceTime and Google Voice are suddenly competing for our communication minutes via video calling. Link : http://gigaom.com/2011/05/09/kinect-skype-video-calling-magic/
