RESEARCH INTERESTS
New ways of organizing made possible by the use of information and communications
technology.
I approach this question in several ways: empirical studies of coordination-intensive processes
in human organizations; theoretical characterizations of coordination problems and alternative
methods for managing them; and design and empirical evaluation of new kinds of computer
systems to support people working together. Specific topics of interest are virtual organizations
(particularly Free/Libre Open Source Software development teams and citizen science projects).
