This paper describes a generic infrastructure for supporting decision-oriented collaborative tasks, i..e., structured tasks in which argumentation and decision are important aspects (e.g., brainstorming, document outlining, review/inspection, conceptual map co-design, confrontation/merging of viewpoints). Basically, the system aims at supporting asynchronous work, but can also support "occasionally synchronous" work. The approach is mainly based on fine-grain modeling of decision-oriented collaborative tasks and the use of different assistance techniques: guidance (i.e., task performance assistance), argumentative reasoning, group awareness. The paper describes the project objectives, the conceptual meta model, the task modeling language, and the current java prototype. This work is a first step in a strategy for the "conceptual integration" of different kinds of cooperation support through an extended modeling framework that should merge coarse-grain modeling of workflow management systems and fine-grain modeling as described here.
