mWeb: a framework for distributed presentations using the WWW and the MBone
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a framework for bringing the MBone and the World-Wide Web closer together by real-time distribution of HTML-pages and synchronization of WWW-browsers. This framework will allow for distributed presentations with WWW-material using the mWeb application. Distribution is done using two new protocols, Scalable Reliable Real-time Transport Protocol SRRTP and Scalable Reliable File Distribution Protocol SRFDP. Synchronization is achieved using the WebDesk Control Bus which allows for messaging in large groups of programs and hosts. This paper also presents how the mWeb application can be used for programmed presentations resulting in a television-like Web-TV.

This thesis addresses the question of how a scalable, distributed teamwork environment should be designed and realized. Central design criteria includes that the system should be scalable and robust, allow for easy access and be symmetric. The system should allow for project team members to collaborate even though they are not located at the same physical location. The resulting system presente...
متن کاملA Time-Sensitive Actor Framework in Java for the Development of Multimedia Systems over the Internet MBone
This paper describes an architectural framework for the development of Internet-based multimedia systems such as interactive and collaborative media on-demand applications. The programming in-the-small level centres on Java and a variant of the Actor model especially designed for time-dependent distributed systems. The programming in-the-large level can be tuned to exploit current real-time and...
