A Framework for Synchronous Tele-Cooperation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Computers are ever more thought of to support cooperative work over distances. Thus tele-cooperation tools and environments are needed which bring the meeting and joint-working onto everyone’s desktop. The following paper introduces a framework for such tele-cooperation. The required cooperation-awareness is achieved by a session model around which the building blocks of the entire service are configured. A session management service controls the underlying services application sharing and telepointing, annotation and sketching, and audio/video conferencing.

WebDesk: the Tele-Conferencing Service of MATES
With this paper, we present a collaborative environment called the WebDesk, that attempts to create a single homogeneous and integrated framework for distributed collaboration. The WebDesk is part of the Esprit 20598 MATES project, which is supported by the Information Technology part of the 4:th Framework Program of the European Union. We believe that the WebDesk will be a forerunner in utiliz...
متن کاملThe BEACH application model and software framework for synchronous collaboration in ubiquitous computing environments
In this paper, a conceptual model for synchronous applications in ubiquitous computing environments is proposed. To test its applicability, it was used to structure the architecture of the BEACH software framework that is the basis for the software infrastructure of i-LAND (the ubiquitous computing environment at FhG-IPSI). The BEACH framework provides the functionality for synchronous cooperat...
متن کاملThe Tele-Actor: A New Framework for Collaborative Telepresence
We propose a new framework for Internet-based telepresence, in which the participants collaboratively experience and effect events at a remote site.. The system combines a remote agent (the “Tele-Actor”) with distributed audience control (the “Tele-Directors”). This framework allows the remote group of Tele-Directors not only to view but to vote on commands and thereby to participate in the Tel...
