The volume is the result of the second multidisciplinary "Communities and Technologies Conference", a major event in this emerging research field. The various chapters discuss how communities are affected by technologies, and how understanding of the way that communities function can be used in improving information systems design. This state of the art overview will be of interest to computer and information scientists, social scientists and practitioners alike Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Print version record In Springer eBooks Subject Computers and civilization -- Congresses Information society -- Congresses Computers -- Social aspects -- Congresses Social sciences.
