Abstract

In distributed software teams, awareness information is often lost due to communication restrictions. Researchers have attempted to retain team awareness by sharing change information across workspaces. The major challenge is how to convey information effectively while avoiding information overload. In this paper, we propose a radar metaphor for distributing and visualizing workspace awareness information. A prototype implementation, Team Radar, is presented and its design is also discussed.
