Abstract
We spend much time daily in meetings and informal conversation in collaborative work for research, business activities, and so on. The creativity of groups is often enhanced by the effects of collaborative concept formation and information sharing during conversations. This paper proposes a system—Augmented Informative Discussion Environment (AIDE)—that facilitates creative conversation. AIDE is an online chat system seamlessly integrated with techniques for visualizing information structure and information retrieval. Specifically, this paper explains the personalization of shared information when using AIDE and proposes a method of visualizing the relationships between multiple participants' viewpoints acquired from these personalized information spaces. © 1998 Scripta Technica, Syst Comp Jpn, 28(10): 1–8, 1997
