“…But make no mistake, the diminishing impact of ICT on scientific collaboration concerns primarily the most basic tools (e.g., email), which have become almost universally available, even for scholars in developing countries (Shrum et al, 2014). It is the quality of the ICT infrastructure that makes a difference-for instance, the availability of higher internet bandwidths correlates with academic productivity (da Fonseca Pachi, Yamamoto, da Costa, & Lopez, 2012). Furthermore, the vast diversity of advanced virtual collaboration tool types-collaboratories, e-Science, cyber-infrastructure, virtual research environments, collaborative software, groupware, remote conferencing services, scholarly social networking sites, and workflow systems, to point out only a few of many categories and competing concepts-is progressively transforming the practices of scientific collaboration (for details and examples, see: Carusi & Reimer, 2010;Jirotka, Lee, & Olson, 2013;Olson, Zimmerman, & Bos, 2008).…”
