Conversational Awareness in Multiparty VMC

In this demonstration, we present a number of videoconferencing systems which differ in support for conversational awareness. We argue that such systems should convey speech, relative position, gaze direction and gaze of the participants, but not necessarily full-motion video. Keywords CSCW, groupware, videoconferencing, awareness, attention.
