Abstract
The application of computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) technology to software engineering regarding collaborative software development, including design, workflow, testbeds is discussed. A fundamental question, whether CSCW software development is more efficient than single-location software development, is also discussed. Different research areas of CSCW include group awareness, multi-user interfaces, concurrency control, communication and coordination within the group, shared information space and the support of a heterogenous, open environment which integrates existing single-user applications. The impact of CSCW to software reliability, as compared with single-site software development is also discussed.
