Summary
Thechapter introduces the shared workspace framework for dialogue. We show how the framework used to explain cooperative joint activities in general can be applied to dialogue. In dialogue, the framework is similar to that for other cooperative joint activities except that the meaningful entities in the shared workspace are signs as well as associated objects.
