Abstract

Virtual team issue has emerged as an important new teamwork model, distinguished from the conventional way in which people work by its ability to transcend distance, time and organizational boundaries. A virtual team consists of a dynamic collection of individuals, a set of collaborative services and network facilities that ensure a flexible and secure coordinated resource sharing. In the Multimedia and Mobile Agent Research Laboratory we have developed the V-Team system, an agent-based multimedia collaborative environment to support virtual teams. V-Team aims to provide a set of team services for better collaboration between a virtual team participants, facilities for managing virtual teams with fully customized team services, and a simpler interface to network services. In this paper, we describe the main components of V-Team, the principles of context customization and the system monitoring approach via policies.
