Supporting awareness plays a prominent role in facilitating natural and effective communication in Instant Messaging (IM). This paper reports our empirical study of awareness in IM, using an online survey and face-to-face interviews to identify user needs for awareness support. The study has identified three themes, including awareness of multiple concurrent conversations, presence awareness of a group conversation, and visibility of moment-to-moment listeners and viewers. The study showed that these three types of awareness are necessary but have been either ineffectively supported or ignored by current IM systems. Drawing on these findings, we have designed three awareness features to support these three categories of awareness. Conversation Dock provides awareness of multiple conversations; Group List provides presence awareness in a group chat by showing who are no longer in the group chat and who are going to join the chat; and Track View provides awareness of in-progress listeners in voice conversations and in-progress viewers in video conversations.

Real-time cooperative editing systems allow multiple users to view and edit the same text/graphic/image/multimedia document at the same time from multiple sites connected by communication networks. Consistency maintenance is one of the most significant challenges in designing and implementing real-time cooperative editing systems. In this article, a consistency model, with properties of convergence, causality preservation, and intention preservation, is proposed as a framework for consistency maintenance in real-time cooperative editing systems. Moreover, an integrated set of schemes and algorithms, which support the proposed consistency model, are devised and discussed in detail. In particular, we have contributed (1) a novel generic operation transformation control algorithm for achieving intention preservation in combination with schemes for achieving convergence and causality preservation and (2) a pair of reversible inclusion and exclusion transformation algorithms for stringwise operations for text editing. An Internet-based prototype system has been built to test the feasibility of the proposed schemes and algorithms.

In real-time cooperative editing systems, independent operations on any part of the shared document may be generated from multiple cooperating sites. It is very important and technically challenging to ensure that the effect of executing an operation at remote sites, in the presence of concurrent execution of independent operations, achieves the same effect as executing this operation at the local site at the time of its generation, thus preserving its intention and maintaining system consistency. In this paper, we investigate the technical issues involved in preserving intentions of concurrent operations, explain the reasons why traditional serialization-based concurrency control strategies and existing operational transformation strategies failed to solve these problems, and propose a generic operation transformation scheme for intention preservation and consistency maintenance in real-time cooperative editing systems. The proposed scheme has been implemented in an Internet-based prototype REDUCE (REal-time Distributed Unconstrained Cooperative Editing) system.
