Abstract

Intuitively, we have an idea of what “collaboration” means. For research purposes, however, this is not sufficient. Although the literature on collaboration is vast, a lack of a unified, comprehensive definition exists. To remedy, this paper reviews the existing literature across multiple domains and provides a comprehensive definition of collaboration.
