Notification mechanism enhances collaboration as enables dynamic federation of relevant objects to be automatically maintained
|
|
Notification can be used for people so their presence on-line can be made known to those in particular collaborative users
|
|
Users decide if notification causes an active signal (send electronic mail, ring a buzzer) or passively alters a list on a web page.
|
Event Model unifies synchronous and asynchronous models of collaboration
-
Event either triggers action immediately and/or asynchronously ( sending e-mail immediately is synchronous act generating asynchronous record)
