As the 21st century nears, networked computing is becoming the
essence of computing itself. Alternative phrases
abound--collaborative work, computer supported cooperative work,
simultaneous/concurrent engineering, multimedia real-time
interactive work--but the neatest, shortest, and simplest catch-all
term was coined in 1978: groupware. The two visionaries who coined
the term, Peter and Trudy Johnson-Lenz, are among the 42 expert
contributors to Groupware in the 21st Century. Other contributors
to the volume include Microsoft's Bill Gates, professors Jay
Nunamaker and Tom Malone, and management author Robert Heller. As
with most technological sea-changes, the groupware revolution is
having its impact first on business, where enhanced interaction
between an organization's members, strategic allies, suppliers, and
customers can help ensure that it remains dynamic and competitive.
Anyone who wants to know about the future of information technology
and group processes will want to read this book which brings
perspective and clarity to these new technologies.
