Detailed Description

The Better Together Toolkit is a suite of resources designed to help separate complex applications and services between multiple devices to empower emergent users. The project is based in the FIT Lab at Swansea University, UK, with partners at IIT Bombay, Mumbai, India. Quite a bit of research has been done in the areas of co-located interactions and multi-device collaboration. People working together to write a single document is a common occurrence, both in the business and the research worlds. While reliable estimates are unavailable for business memos, in the sciences the proportion of jointly authored articles has been increasing steadily throughout the century, so that in some fields over 65% of articles are jointly written.
