| Research Abstract |
There have been an increased number of collaborative search activities on the Web due to the advance of collaborative work in a networked environment. However, existing search engines are often designed to support a single searcher at a time, and limited work has been carried out for collaborative search. This project investigated how to support collaborative search on the web by looking both at cognitive and technological aspects. We designed a task-based evaluation based on travel planning task and performed a user study to analyze people's collaborative information seeking behavior. The results suggest that understanding knowledge sharing of work task is a prominent issue, and that development of techniques that can facilitate division of roles is promising.
