Foil 23 Naïve Shared Object Strategy

From Minnowbrook -- the Virtual University After Dinner Talk to Dedicated AFOSR Research Team -- April 15 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox


Assume teachers, students, engineers, shoppers, salespersons, families teach, learn, collaborate, buy, sell, socialize via electronic versions of traditional human interactions combined with shared objects rendered as web pages
  • Most sharing is asynchronous and one usually wishes to share synchronously same material that one accesses asynchronously
  • objects can be (electronic) text books, aircraft designs and simulations, expensive jewelry or photos of grandchildren .....
  • Best sharing must support cross disability rendering
Only shared event model of sharing (collaboration) is capable of necessary efficiency and customization to each user
