Shared Portal on the Web

• Each “Shared Portal on the Web” or SPW is a set of XML and HTML documents

• An XML document defines the collaboration and portal Structure -- who is allowed in “Shared Place”; what objects can be there; where they are stored; portal design described earlier

  • For collaboration, this replaces the suite of undocumented rigid policies in TangoInteractive as well as scattered configuration files
  • There is one such XML document for each type of SPW e.g. there would be distedtojacksonstate.xml or distedfsu.xml or favoritecorporatetraining.xml etc.
  • We have developed the XML based SPDL (Shared Place Definition Language) which is currently quite simple and is used in the SPW structure definition
