                                                 2-16.  Reread about 2026 in Q2-9. Do you agree with the conclusions? Why or why
                                                       not? If F2F meetings become rare, what additional impacts do you see on the

                                                       make sense and those that do not. What are promising investments in training?

                                                 2-17.  Groupware is a software used to support multiple users in remote locations
                                                       working on the same set of tasks. It is also known as collaborative software.
                                                       The major benefit is that the groupware has a mechanism by which the tasks
                                                       can be coordinated.
                                                       The major component of groupware is email. This is used to update members
                                                       of the team, elicit responses and send out alerts. Find out more about group-
                                                       ware and then answer the following questions:
                                                       a.  What do the emails have live links to and what is the other main form of
                                                          communication between team members?
                                                       b.  Groupware can be described as either process or information centered,
                                                          what does this mean?
                                                       c.  What are the drawbacks of collaborative software that relies on email?
