“…Many CVEs, whether text-based or graphical, are synchronous, which offer actors the advantage of receiving immediate feedback; one can present one's position, field questions, and receive immediate answers. Such immediate feedback is useful for clarification of an issue and, it has been argued, may lead to group cohesiveness [6]. Users' interaction and navigation within a virtual space may be influenced by a variety of factors, among them, how the space is designed, the presence of other users, and the positioning of artefacts.…”

Collaborative Virtual Environments, such as multi-user domains MUDs, chatrooms, or three-dimensional graphical environments, provide a common space for people to interact in, independent of geographical location. In this chapter, we examined how the different metaphors used to represent two-dimensional and three-dimensional environments might influence interpersonal behaviours. We focused on behaviours related to navigation and positioning: 1) proxemics, the maintenance of personal space, 2) the signaling of private space, and 3) the effects of crowding. We discovered that the design of the three-dimensional space offer sociopetal spaces that encourage interaction, make clusters of actors easily visible, and provide cues so that people maintain a sense of personal space. In both environments, adverse reactions to crowding occurred. We suggest that differences in interpersonal behaviours may be influenced by an embodiment (avatar), design features of the space, and the number of other actors present. In a three-dimensional environment, these factors appear to influence navigation and positioning in the environment.

“…Thus, the central repository sub-strategy implies access to and use of medical images stored in an online central repository. Such solutions provide synchronous collaboration at reasonable costs and simultaneous access to medical images [23]. The implementation process is fairly simple and it also includes standard SQL queries allowing doctors to retrieve relevant medical images.…”

“…CVEs may be especially useful in providing an environment conducive to group cohesiveness, as people have the opportunity to immediately receive feedback, when fielding questions or for clarification of an issue [9]. An advantage of these collaborative spaces is the opportunity for physically distributed team members to interact and co-exist within a shared, virtual space.…”

The Forum is a collaborative working environment that consists of two shared spaces: a space for informal interaction (Contact Space), and a workspace for synchronous meetings using audioconferencing support (Meeting Space). It is designed to enable people, who should meet each other to do so naturally, providing an environment for richer online interactions. This paper discusses three evaluations of the Forum Contact Space: a conceptual evaluation, a prototype evaluation, and an ethnographic evaluation. Each evaluation was undertaken to improve the Contact Space usability, examine whether it supports chance encounters, and learn from participant feedback, areas for improvement of future Forum versions.The conceptual evaluation using focus groups showed group discrepancies regarding how the Contact Space would be beneficial for producing chance encounters. In the prototype evaluation, the findings suggest that chance encounters were produced and that the Concept Space was perceived as an environment for supporting group cohesiveness. A common theme from the findings of the ethnographic evaluation was the division of the Contact Space and its related parts into two tools: a core tool; and a peripheral tool, dependent on whether it was active. As groups are increasingly distributed over geographical distances, the benefits of a shared virtual space for communication and interaction are being realised.
