IEEE Collabratec provides engineers with virtual workspaces where they can create, organize, and share ideas on projects with one another for free as they shift to remote work environments.
Users have created several workspaces on COVID-19 research, policies, and ideas with a specific technical focus. One is COVID19 Broadband Use Cases where discussions are taking place about how to fix the weaknesses found in broadband networks as a result of the increased use of the Internet. Participants can also explore designs of inexpensive and easily manufactured ventilators in the COVID19 Mechanical Ventilators workspace.
Here's how to get started:
- Step 1: Join or sign in to IEEE Collabratec: Use your IEEE account login credentials to sign in to the website. If you don't have an IEEE account, create one for free.
- Step 2: Create a workspace: Within IEEE Collabratec, navigate to the workspaces option at the top of the page and select the green "+Create New" button on the right-hand side.
- Step 3: Start collaborating. Once you have created your workspace and invited your colleagues, you can collaborate on files, make posts, create events, or start a video conference on Google Hangouts.
To share and collaborate on files, all participants in your workspace need to attach the same storage provider such as Box, DropBox, or Google Drive.
