An efficient and scalable meeting minutes generation and presentation technique

Abstract

Meetings are essential for a group of individuals to work together. An important output of meetings is minutes. Taking and distributing minutes is a time consuming task. Also, any new member of a meeting series will not be able to easily refer to old minutes if they are in written or e-mail format. Our contribution to this problem is to propose a new approach for taking meeting minutes that will allow dynamic and cooperative note taking. In addition, resulting minutes will allow any new participant to spend a smaller integration time. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
