Description
Summary:	The world globalization process, the increasing demand of communication and information technologies creates an enormous demand for collaborative applications. Aiming to support communication, information change and collaboration among users geographically distant, many CSCW (computer supported cooperative work) systems like audio and video-conference, shared editors, shared white-board and CVEs (collaborative virtual environments) were developed. Collaborative virtual environments represent an important category of CSCW systems that use 3D shared spaces in order to support collaborative activities. We find also many systems that integrate collaborative applications to satisfy specific needs of users. We detailed in this article the potential of RECOLLVE to represent and to coordinate into the virtual scene a very large set of collaboration activities, including their social aspects.
