Collaboratory The collaboratory is envisioned as an advanced, distributed infrastructure which would use multimedia information technology to relax the constraints on distance, time and even reality. It would support and enhance intellectual teamwork in both research and teaching. In fact, there is growing consensus that the next major paradigm shift in computing is in the direction of the collaboratory and that not only research but also a vast array of human team activities in commerce, education, and the arts would be supported by variations of this vision.
