Abstract:
|
Applications designed to support the work of groups will becoming increasingly important to future distributed systems. This paper considers the role of distributed systems within the development of cooperative systems. In particular, we focus on the need to provide Open CSCW systems and their impact on distributed systems. The work currently being undertoken in Open Distributed Systems (ODP) is used to highlight significant trends for future open CSCW systems. It will be shown that the
CSCW and ODP community share mutual interests and have complementary aims and goals developed from different perspectives.
Within the paper we provide a brief introduction to CSCW highlighting the requirements CSCW places on distributed systems. The development of an environment
to support open CSCW systems is introduced and briefly described. Finally, the relationships between requirements and models for Open CSCW systems and the Basic
Reference Model of ODP are discussed. |
