Abstract
  • Part I: Real-Time Interactive Collaborative Technologies (Majority)
  • Part II: Using Collaborative Tools for Distributed Extreme Programming
Just because people are on the go, doesn't mean that they don't need to work together. The telephone allows us to instantaneously communicate, but in order to collaborate, we need a mechanism to work on data and applications remotely and in real time. Instant messaging, chat, shared white-boards and web page pushing are just the beginning.
We need to bring others right into any applications in a transparent yet meaningful way (not just screen replication) for intra-business, business to business, educational, software development and e-commerce applications.
Building applications with integrated functionality for multi-user interfaces introduces several technical and organizational issues such as security (authentication/access control), Point-of-presence, distribution and meaningful multi-user interfaces. Once we've discussed the basic infrastructure required to build We will discuss how to build collaborative multi-user Model-View-Control applications. Java's dynamic nature along with the coherent nature of AWT and Swing is ideal for this type of application. In this talk we will discuss the types of components that are currently available, integration and deployment of shared components into your applications, collaborative messaging protocols and collaborative development tools available that aid in software development.
