Research AimThe aim of this research is to investigate the design and implementation of a collaborative work environment which can facilitate collaborative knowledge creation within scientific communities. The utilisation of proposed collaborative work environment will improve the social interactions among the community members.

Research ObjectivesThe aim will be achieved through the following objectives.
