Abstract

In this paper we report on a field experience in the usage and support of an advanced Online Conference Service (OCS) as a virtual Program Committee organization tool. Three communities of users (bound to computer science conferences) were involved: they served as beta tester, and as impulse giver and validators of the stable features of the Version 3.0 of the online platform. Important is the observation that these communities are directly comparable and representative of the general setting in this application domain: this is to our knowledge the only quantitative study in this application area. Here we document and discuss the service usage patterns of the three communities, we describe the observed phenomena for weekly, daily, and feature- specific usage, and discuss the results and lessons learned.
