Nature of the Teleworkplace Platforms and technology push… why now? The teleworking dimensions Telepresentations: a killer app But does anyone want telework? Cyberspace… our quest The end….. The 16 questions posed in the DVC Brochure

Telework = work + telepresence … “being there while being here”
Goal: teleoffice/teleworkplace = workplace office The teleworkplace is ideally just a “remote office” W/O
– Communication, computer, and network support!– Team interactions for work! CSCW is a “rat hole”!– Interaction at coffee, meeting rooms, … in offices– Administrative support for phones, information (especially
paper) management, keeping track of Always on & always connected to intranet/intranet ...! Telepresentations & communication -- the “killer apps” Collaboration is desirable, hard, and may be possible. Needs B/W
& low latency. It’s on its very slow way. SOHOs & COMOHOs is a high growth market

Teleworking CW 9/1/97 15% 2 yr increase, 11 Mpeople, avg. 19 Hr/wk 42% of US Co’s; 22% have policies (screening, worker
expectations, liability, IP protection, etc. Are telecommuters more productive?
– 30% yes– 50% same– 4% no– 16% don’t know
Are telecommuters more accessible?– 13% yes– 40% same– 40% no– 7% don’t know

Telepresence for work: requirements
Telepresence = space and time shifting Goal: teleoffice/teleworkplace = workplace office Limited space, bandwidth, administrative and computer support
infrastructure, AND interaction Need: run all office and professional apps, support computing
environment, and be always connected New app opportunities: telepresentations (e.g. NetShow, Powerpoint
conferencing); Web is the greatest library ever created Create “presence” for collaboration by apps sharing (e.g. NetMeeting,
Placeware) Administrative support including paper handling! Short term bets: large disks (e.g 20GB), more displays, videophones,
cameras, scanners, bandwidth limits

Telework & telepresence: a forcing function into several areas... Home Network Network connection is always on
… and at high speed Support (at reasonable cost) for all apps…
-- the teleworker = system admin Office work… e.g. paperlessness, message mgm’t
“recording all we read, write, hear, and see”-- the teleworker = admin. assistant aka secretary
Telepresence… attending meetings and lectures, taking courses, etc. without travel
Collaboration on a work project without travel

Telepresentations will be a well-defined app by 2001.
ACM97 was the first telepresented conference with Mbone multicast & servers that host the conference cf. http://www.research.microsoft.com/acm97
Bet: More people will view the conference from Cyberspace than that attended it.

Telework: Summary The web is the enabler. We still lack B/W. Technology is coming, research lags in handling
– Storage of all text, audio, and useful video– Videophones, cameras, netPCs, WebTV, etc. – More pixels we require to increase “presence”– Adequate audio… the “killer” component
A big part of telework is just office productivity– Coexistence with computer, paper, telephone,– Data-types require a multimedia database– Computer and network management is a real “time killer”
CSCW is a rathole. We don’t understand CW– The killer apps are simple: telepresentations and shared
apps Being connected all the time is essential

Will streaming video bring the Internet to its knees?
Depends on the data-rate. Is it 28.8 Kbps? Or > 4500 Kbps for DVD and HDTV-quality?
By definition, it won’t or can’t because It won’t be deployed if the network can’t support it Better question:
What forms will streaming video take over the next five years for the corporate user?
What forms will streaming video take as a function of time for the home internet user?

What are the essential ingredients for success in remote collaboration?
The type of work… it has to be “coarse grain” I.e. little interaction among the collaborators per unit of collaboration and work output
Telepresentation-type collaboration does work The application supporting it Great audio Were you able to collaborate in a single site?

Which technology will win the broadband access battle -- cable modems or DSL products? I.e. the dumb or the blind? Cable will lead in the short term because of the
inherent ease of doing it, its low cost, and the possibility that users could simply buy their cable modems and attach them.
Not a given because the transition to digital channels will confuse things
But in the long term, service most likely has to be Central Office based for reliability and scalability and for symmetry.

What does it cost to multicast video to thousands of users from a single stream? Do you have the bandwidth for one or more
channels? If so, the cost is nil. Is it just for internal multicasting? Do you want to send to the internet or just

Will video chat develop like keyboard chat and generate millions of minutes of usage for on line services? It already is. Go visit a Porno studio, however this is really
one way chat Unclear how much n-way video chat will be used Expect NetMeeting et al will be the enablers and meetings
could be the “killer app” Don’t count out shared games as the enabler and avenue for
chat & collaboration Some consumer research questions:
Do you want voice at all or text with avatars and comic chat?Or would you rather chat using just voice, voice and avatars, lip-synced images of yourself, 10-30 fps talking images?
