Resources, Co-Evolution and Artifacts: Theory in CSCW

by Mark S. Ackerman (Editor), Christine A. Halverson (Editor), Thomas Erickson (Editor)

This new book looks at how resources get created, adopted, modified, and die, by using a number of theoretical and empirical studies to carefully examine and chart resources over time. It examines, among many others, issues such as how resources are tailored or otherwise changed as the situations and purposes for which they are used change, and how a resource is maintained and reused within an organization.
