(First paragraph) In this timely and ambitious volume, the editors, John Curry and Erik S. Ohlander, have undertaken to collect and edit material dealing with one of the most historiographically fraught topics and periods in Islamic history: the history of Sufism from the so-called “Middle Period„ up to the cusp of modernity. As the editors note in their introduction, while the early centuries of Sufism have been relatively well served by histori…

Knowledge-Sharing Successes in Web 2.0 Communities
Knowledge sharing in contemporary research is seen largely as a particular kind of "social dilemma" the public goods problem. Because people can benefit from public goods whether they contribute to them or not, there will always be the temptation to free-ride off the contributions of others. Knowledge-sharing behavior is scarcer that many would prefer, according to this argument, because of an incentive problem. The incentive problem can be overc…

Who shapes the future
How can computer professionals shape the future of new computing technologies? Using the recent history of handheld computers as an example, this paper investigates how computer professionals can shape the future by helping to define what new technologies should be. Computer professionals can play a variety of roles in creating, maintaining, and questioning problem framings, or the basic assumptions about what problem a new technology is trying t…
Mutual control in the newly integrated work environments
How does an increase in the availability of detailed electronic information about behavior change organizations, and what kinds of choices influence those changes? This paper presents a model of mutual control, derived from studies of detailed information sharing in manufacturing, that describes one set of likely changes. According to the mutual control model, increasing pressures for tighter monitoring and control come from a mutual access to, a…
Groupware and social reality
Much like spreadsheet programs for the personal computer, groupware is being positioned as the distinctive breakthrough product for the next great industry trend, networking. The challenge of developing effective groupware is forcing computer scientists to dive into the murky world of group behavior and social relationsdefinitely not a traditional strength of the discipline . Fortunately, a number of groupware researchers and developers have reco…
