“…Within the Comic project (1993)(1994)(1995), a CSCW prototype creating an environment to let participants of cooperative processes share the common context of their interactions has been developed [3]. In Desarte (1996)(1997), studies on industrial design practices have brought how new knowledge is created by cooperation among designers [20,27]. In Klee&Co (1998 deepening the above correlation in analytical terms allowed us to understand how knowledge creation depends on the situation where users act and interact and to introduce the idea of "view with context" as a means to bring forth the context of a cooperative practice, embedding it into a knowledge management system [21,22].…”

Most of the available knowledge management systems pay little attention to two important aspects: the need of supporting emerging communities of interest together with the official organizational structure; and the need of cluing together knowledge associated with any kind of involved entity including people, communities, and informal knowledge. The MILK system enhances knowledge discovery and sharing by providing services addressing these aspects and supplying innovative interfaces and interaction styles. The goal of MILK is to become a familiar environment integrated in the every-day activities of dynamic modern workers. To meet the users' needs, the solution proposed by MILK roots in ethnographic analysis capturing the common practices within an organization.

Many groupware systems contain gaps that hinder or block natural social interaction or that does not let people easily move between different styles of work. We believe that the adoption of a room metaphor can ease people's transitions across these gaps, allowing them to work together more naturally. Using the TeamWave Workplace system as an example, we show how particular gaps are removed. First, we ease a person's transition between single user and groupware applications by making rooms suitable for both individual and group activity. Second, people can move fluidly between asynchronous and synchronous work because room artifacts persist. People can leave messages, documents and annotations for others, or work on them together when occupying the room at the same time. Third, we ease the difficulty of initiating real time work by providing people with awareness of others who may be available for real-time interactions, and by automatically establishing connections as users enter a common room. Fourth, we discuss how a technical space can be transformed into a social place by describing how a group crafts meaning into a room. We also argue that a room metaphor's seamless support of everyday activities will foster an environment where groups naturally share their expertise.
