Abstract
Current technologies for group decision support only rarely account for the qualitative mechanisms underlying problem solving processes of multiple persons, i.e. on-going task negotiations, debates of contradictory issues, alterations of commitment-based contracts, e.g., redefining tasks due to resource allocation constraints or dynamic changes in the project environment. The CoNeX system* (COoperation and NEgotiation among eXperts) currently under development is particularly dedicated to integrate these qualitative aspects of group work [HJ88]. The application scenario considers the problem solving activities of physically distributed experts in the field of information system design, development, and maintenance under the perspective ofsoftware project management
