Representing Collaboration in Concurrent Design Process by Using BPMN2.0 Modelling Language: Whether collaboration issues can be better learned and benefited by using BPMN2.0 modelling language in concurrent design process of ESA projects?

This MSc research intends to use modelling method to represent collaboration system and develop improvement suggestions. The represented collaboration system is under the background of concurrent design process in ESA design projects. The whole research can be mainly separated into three parts. The first part is related to explore suitable...

Supporting convergence in groups: (re-) design and evaluation of two thinkLets for convergence and a technique for similarity detection

To solve complex problems brainstorming with a Group Support System can be a helpful tool. Social comparison and association effects are factors that stimulate the generation of creative and high quality ideas or concepts. Also, the GSS’ capabilities that allow a group to work in parallel contributes to the swiftness with which a fast growing...
