摘要：IN THIS PAPER, WE AT FIRST INTRODUCE THE CONTEXT OF MULTI-DISCIPLINARYCOLLABORATION AND THE USAGE OF MULTIPLE COMPUTER-HUMAN INTERFACES (CHIS) WITHDOMAIN SPECIFIED SOFTWARE. THEN WE PROPOSE THE CO-LOCATED MULTI-VIEW SYSTEM WITHTHE TECHNOLOGY OF MULTI-REPRESENTATION, MULTI INTERACTION AND VIRTUAL REALITY. ASTUDY IS INVESTIGATED TO EVALUATE THE CONTRIBUTION TO THE PROPOSED MULTI-VIEWSYSTEM IN COMPARING WITH THE TRADITIONAL MONO-VIEW SYSTEM DURING A MULTIDISCIPLINARY COLLABORATIVE TASK. A MULTI-ROLE COLLABORATIVE APPLICATION ISDEVELOPED TO TEST THE CO-LOCATED COLLABORATION WITH MULTIPLE REPRESENTATIONS INVIRTUAL REALITY ENVIRONMENT. THIS COLLABORATIVE APPLICATION CONSISTS OF ACOLLABORATIVE TASK WHICH SIMULATES INDUSTRIAL PROJECT REVIEW USING MULTIREPRESENTATION DIGITAL MOCK-UP (DMU). THE EXPERIMENT IS CONDUCTED WITH TWOPERSONS UNDER TWO DIFFERENT COLLABORATIVE CHI’S CONDITIONS: TWO MONO-VIEWSYSTEMS AND SINGLE MULTI-VIEW SYSTEM. THE DIFFERENCE IN TERM OF VERBALCOMMUNICATION, CONTRIBUTION AND EFFICIENCY OF COLLABORATION DURING THE MULTIDISCIPLINARY COLLABORATIVE TASK IS ANALYZED TO COMPARE THE TWO CONDITIONS.
