چکیده
This paper describes the design of ,services to support consistency in collaborative mobile applications. The requirements for application level consistency in groupware applications are discussed and it is urgued that existing consistency services for mobile environments fail to address these requirements because they assume infrequent (write) sharing of information. We present the design of a group execution service called G-QEX which is designed to support consistency in mobile applications and includes features necessary to cope with the fluctuations in QoS which characterise mobile environment,s.

متن کاملSupporting collaborative applications in a heterogeneous mobile environment
This paper describes the implementation and use of a platform designed to support collaborative multimedia applications in a mobile environment. The platform provides a programming interface compatible with emerging open systems standards and includes services for processing multimedia information. In addition, the platform provides feedback to applications and users on the state of their commu...
متن کاملA Model for Collaborative Services in Distributed Learning Environments
Synchronous collaborative work environments, which are mainly based on video-conferencing systems, suffer a lack of human communication channels and social awareness because mostly only audio, video, and joint editing of documents are supported. Collaborative services such as floor control, session control, and telepointers provide additional communication mechanisms to support persons co-worki...

متن کاملAutonomous Decentralized Collaborative Applications: an architecture for collaborative information-dissemination applications
In this paper we describe a model or architecture for autonomous and decentralized collaborative applications to support scientific research, collaborative learning projects and in general collaborative work. We first describe the application environment we had in mind: the design of a peer-to-peer collaborative newspaper application in a large network of schools. We have identified a generic c...
