Title
Support for tailoring CSCW systems: adaptation by composition
Abstract
In the last few years it has been realized that flexibil- ity and tailorability are key requirements for software sys- tems in general and for CSCW (Computer Supported Coop- erative Work) systems in particular. An important mecha- nism for providing tailorability is the creation of compound functionality by the composition of specialized modules. In this paper we identify two variants of this composition ap- proach. We characterize the variants according to their properties from the users perspective. Then we demonstrate how both variants can be combined in the same application. The variants complement each other and together result in a clearer access to the tailoring support for the user.
