Foil 16 Collaboration Transparency

From Use of Tango in Multidisciplinary Interactions MAPINT97 Workshop -- 16-18 June 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Marek Podgorny *
Concept: design a system that allows using an application designed for a single individual to be used by a group of people without changing anything in the application
  • Shared display applications implement collaboration transparency
Proposed extension of the paradigm to the event broadcasting architectures (Old Dominions' JCT, Virginia Tech's JAMM)
  • technical approach: modification of the Java AWT to distribute events
  • our evaluation: we support event distribution model, but consider collaboration transparency an unrealistic model.
  • Rather we modify applications to distribute events
