Foil 37 Application Protocols

From Tango for Distance Education and Training Today Rice University Tango Tutorial -- October 18 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox


A blueprint for a truly successful collaboratory system does not exist. Hence:
  • Need an extensible system with very few limitations.
  • System must not define application specific protocols, application programming language, or limit in whatever way functionality of collaboratory applications
The essence of each collaboratory function must be defined by application and by application only
TANGO does not define any application protocols
