Visualization of Communication Patterns in Collaborative Innovation Networks - Analysis of Some W3C Working Groups

Peter A. Gloor, Rob Laubacher, Scott Dynes, Yan Zhao · 2003

Summary. This paper analyzes communication patterns in collaborative innovation networks by examining email archives from W3C working groups. The researchers developed visualization tools to map how information flows through these global internet-based teams over time. They found that different groups displayed distinct communication structures and identified both formal and informal leadership patterns that shaped how innovation networks organized themselves.
