Abstract

The evolution of collaboration-related technologies opens new possibilities regarding the improvement of Human-Computer-Human Interaction processes and collective activities that occur within organizational environments. Part of the success of this improvement resides in the development of systems that equally fit the needs of both target organizations and end users. To meet these needs, it is necessary on the one hand to satisfy the requirements referred to intrinsic aspects of organizational structures and activities and to the diversity of skills and preferences observed in members of the organization itself on the other. For this reason, we introduce a framework based on the use of modeling and component composition techniques, which is intended to simplify the development of organizational collaborative systems, assisting developers in dealing with the requirements addressed above, and promote the involvement of end users in the software life cycle, by adding tailorability properties to final systems.
