Collaboration on the go: mTeam 

In this project we investigate a full-spectrum of research topics and technologies to enable nomadic collaboration, including algorithmic foundations and basic research on Networked Distributed Systems which will support upper layer functionalities and ubiquity independent of device and location, Social Networking to facilitate new collaboration opportunities and finally the collaboration tools themselves to carry out the tasks and manage such collaborations. Here is a presentation outlining mTeam's research agenda.

    Funding & collaboration

    The official title of the project is "A Creative Environment For Mobile Knowledge Workers". It is funded by A*Star Science and Engineering Research Council (in tandem with our Polish partners in Polish-Japanese Institute of Information Technology funded by the Polish Ministry of Science & Higher Education) for Singapore-Poland Science & Technology Co-operation. We nicknamed the project as mTeam. I am the Principal Investigator. This work is in collaboration with Prof. Sun Chengzheng (Co-PI at NTU Singapore) and Dr. Adam Wierzbicki, who is the Polish counterpart PI of this project at PJIIT.

    Check out the mTeam project website to get more details on the overall project, including contribution by all the members.
