Abstract
Groupware are software which provides an environment to group of users to work in shared environment on a common task to achieve common goal. Cooperative writing application is also a type of groupware. Cooperative writing applications enable people working in a group to perform common task by providing shared environment. To provide the required consistency and integrity of shared data the key focus is on structured information about the actions performed by the group members, shared objects, communication techniques and effective coordination mechanism. Cooperative writing applications require the features like efficient communication service, effective coordination mechanism and awareness about all user activities and their participation for the production of consistent shared documents. The research focuses on comparative study, citation of related work, and questionnaire from users/groupware designers and intends to define the criteria for the evaluation of cooperative writing applications.
