Abstract

In this paper we present a specification for annotating messages to enable computer-supported message processing, addressing, and analysis. The benefits of annotating messages according to our XML based specification are two-fold: Firstly, it allows computer support during collaboration by enabling automated message addressing (i.e., determining who should get a message) and message management (e.g., managing your messages according to activities, projects, and tasks). Secondly, it enables post-collaboration analysis of messages and mining of message logs for patterns and for workflow models. We provide a proof of concept by presenting how annotated messages may support and facilitate collaboration that happens according to certain collaboration patterns. In addition to the patterns we have already introduced in our previous work, we present more patterns such as Monitors that emphasize the applicability of computer supported message handling.
