In December 2008, Cisco conducted one of the first comprehensive studies on the factors associated with successful adoption of network-based collaboration. The study, Collaboration: Know Your Enthusiasts and Laggards surveyed 800 people in a wide variety of U.S. medium-sized and enterprise organizations who:
• Spend at least 20% of time at work using a network-connected computer
• Use a mobile phone or handheld device
• Participate in two or more collaborative activities per month
Our objective was to identify habits and characteristics of high-performing collaboration groups. In addition to pattern matching, the study found evidence that contradicts some common perceptions about today’s collaborators.
The next generation of collaborative work will be defined by a shift from information handling to interaction management and socialization. Social software seems an unlikely example for enterprise collaboration initially, but networks allow tapping into collective coworker knowledge better than previous approaches. Communities form organically in social networks, connections are stronger, and adoption is faster due to ease of use. While past technologies like groupware and portals improved collaboration, social software facilitates user-driven interaction and knowledge-sharing.
The document discusses social collaboration using HyperOffice Social. It introduces social collaboration as applying social media concepts to core business problems like collaboration. HyperOffice Social achieves a balance between collaboration tools and social media by combining their benefits, allowing structured business data and conversations while encouraging sharing. The software's features include social messaging, activity walls, and attaching business documents and records to conversations for context.
The document discusses how new open, social, and participatory media are changing educational practices and research. Some key points discussed include:
- New media like social networking sites, blogs, and wikis allow for peer critiquing, collaboration, and networking, which impacts research processes.
- Effective use of new technologies requires rethinking core learning and teaching processes to be more open, externalized, and shareable.
- Various technologies like media sharing sites, games, and social networks provide new opportunities for participation, but also challenges around quality assurance and digital divides.
- New digital literacies are needed for skills like collaboration, networking, and distributed cognition in participatory online environments.

Fitting an Activity-Centric system into an ecology of workplace toolsAruna Balakrishnan
1. Lotus Activities was used primarily for bounded, in-progress projects with a definite goal and shorter time frame, rather than for long-term archival use or open-ended collaboration.
2. While Lotus Activities helped reduce fragmentation for certain tasks, it did not eliminate fragmentation or replace the need for other tools. Wikis and shared repositories were preferred for long-term use, while email still contributed to fragmented work.
3. The design of Lotus Activities, with its limited structure and liberal sharing capabilities, made it suitable for lightweight collaboration on evolving projects. However, its limitations also meant it did not fulfill all collaboration needs met by other tools.
Montressa L. Washington gave a presentation on using crowdsourcing, collaboration and Web 2.0 tools to enhance project management.

Case studies show how social media has empowered employees at a telecom company and increased innovation at BP by crowdsourcing ideas. The key is to focus on culture change and enabling connections, communication, and content to develop creative leaders.
Knowledge Management in Enterprise 2.0 - Part 4Telekom MMS
The document discusses the "Enterprise 2.0 error" of focusing too much on informal use cases of social software in companies rather than formal use cases that provide clear benefits. It identifies three main problems: 1) excessive expectations about benefits from informal community activities, 2) communities cannot be business critical as they require informality, 3) informal use cases alone do not provide enough reason for regular participation. The key insight is that social tools should primarily enhance formal use cases like internal communication, projects/processes, and personal information management, which draw users to a platform, instead of focusing on communities.
Collaborative software helps people work together towards shared goals. It creates collaborative work environments using tools like video conferencing, wikis, blogs and more. Common collaboration applications include project management systems, resource management, online chat, and knowledge management. Collaboration software allows users to provide feedback, rank choices, and generate recommendations. Popular tools include Miro for idea sharing, Lotus Notes for business collaboration, InVision for design collaboration, and Dropbox for file sharing. Collaboration requires individuals working as a coordinated team using communication and problem-solving tools to accomplish common goals.

This document discusses the evolution of intranets and the rise of Web 2.0 and Enterprise 2.0 technologies and concepts. It defines intranets as private internal networks that use internet technologies to provide services and applications to employees. Intranets help provide access to company resources and support communication, collaboration, and knowledge sharing among employees. Web 2.0 emphasizes user participation, openness, social networking, and harnessing the "wisdom of crowds." As intranets adopt these new technologies and principles, they are evolving from early informational stages to more advanced collaborative platforms known as Enterprise 2.0.
How Social Networks are Delivering on the Failed Promise of Knowledge ManagementPaul Gillin
Organizations are inherently social, and when they enable people to reach out and find each other, connections are formed and discoveries are made that transcend org charts. But Intranet 2.0 isn't a zero-sum game. Open communication challenges traditional lines of authority and may be seen as a threat to those who are invested in existing structures. In fact, the biggest barriers to internal social network adoption are political, not technical. In an economy that demands innovation, resourcefulness and knowledge efficiency, do we really have any choice but to change? This presentation looks at how social networks are transforming the way businesses operate and at the bitter medicine some companies must swallow in order to realize their potential.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
