Abstract

Cooperation and communication, a fundamental part of daily working life, usually take place within rooms. Both the underlying data as well as the conversation, proposals and results may be sensitive. Therefore, protective environments are needed. Since more and more electronic material has to be handled and because of the increase of communication via electronic media, the demand for safe, intuitive and efficient information management is rising rapidly. A virtual room concept reduces information traffic and makes the necessary traffic safer in an intuitive way. In this context we discuss required features of virtual rooms, the virtualization of data, integration of electronic tools, design of data, tools and accounts based on a room metaphor.
