GOSTE: Group Oriented Simulation Training Environment

The purpose of this study is to explore the contribution of the CSCW (Computer Supported Cooperative Work) in the collaborative project conduct and more specifically in the conduct of a simulation training project. We justify the adequacy of the CSCW concepts with the method of conduct of a simulation project. The practice of the web-based simulation as well as the web-based groupware is treated. This allows us to justify the choice of the BSCW system as support of implementation of a GOSTE on the Web. We illustrate our approach by presenting our experiment with BSCW system to implement such an environment.
