Actually I used to be at Syracuse and perhaps some of your collaborators there used to work with me. http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu/ptliupages/publications/disted has a collection of some of my work where I use a mix of academic and commercial systems. Now I research: a) Basic XML/Web Service frameworks for collaboration including integration of synchronous and asynchronous modes. The web service work is with Dennis Gannon who you originally contacted -- however I do most the applications to collaboration. b) Inclusion of hand-held devices in collaborative sessions c) Integration of audio/video conferencing devices using Web Services d) Use of SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) in authoring Some of my work can and has been used -- others are still research prototypes I am in Europe this week. Next week I am back in USA although I am in Washington DC for a NASA (Goddard) Earth Science meeting from Monday evening through Thursday when I am in USA, you can contact me at any time through my cell phone 315-2546387 > This is a multi-part message in MIME format. > > ------=_NextPart_000_0023_01C1E9E4.73421350 > Content-Type: text/plain; > charset="us-ascii" > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > > Dear Prof. Fox, > > We're forming a consortium with 6 other universities (University of > Illinois at Urbanna, Champaign, University of Florida, Cornell, > Syracuse, George Mason, and MIT).
