They are shared workspace, work management and interaction among participants. Computer communication is essential and important for these technologies. In this paper, we will discuss different kinds of communication services required by CSCW. There are three communication styles in CSCW support environment: real time stream transfer, real time block transfer and non real time transfer.

文摘In order to support CSCW (Computer Supported Cooperative Work) applications, some basic technologies must be introduced into the computer supported environment.
