Objetivo The objective of the MMTCA project is to design and build a toolbox for the development of cooperative applications with special attention to the requirements of multimedia applications. MMTCA will allow users to employ any existing Microsoft Windows application cooperatively - no specialised editors will be imposed to users in order to work cooperatively.A toolbox for the development of cooperative applications with special attention to the requirements of multimedia applications has been developed. It allows users to employ any existing Microsoft Windows application cooperatively; no specialized editors will be imposed on users. The project delivers: a client-server system which allows for the execution of cooperative applications; tools to manage such cooperative applications, the existing applications employed, the documents created, etc; a set of applications developed by end users. It caters for both synchronous and asynchronous cooperation. Users are allowed to take turns in interacting with the shared applications. In addition, it caters for asynchronous cooperation (workflow), ie the ability of 2 or more users to work cooperatively at different times by exchanging files under its supervision and management. Furthermore, it allows users to employ specialized applications manipulating audio and video information, such as video conferencing systems. It is designed specifically for the modern office environment where all offices are equipped with MS Windows capable personal computers, interconnected through local area networks. The organization's data reside in databases accessible throughout the whole network using standard interfaces. The user requirements of a bank, a shipping company and the computer aided design (CAD) unit of a large industrial manufacturer were combined to produce the requirements for the system. A prototype of the system was built to validate the technical approach (ie server based workflow, support for the 'what you see is what I see' principle by exchanging user generated events instead of bitmaps, etc).The project will deliver: - a client-server system which will allow for the execution of cooperative applications. - tools to manage such cooperative applications, the existing applications employed, the documents created, etc. - a set of applications developed by end-users. MMTCA will cater for both synchronous and asynchronous cooperation. Synchronous cooperation is understood to be the ability of two or more users to see at the same time the same view on their screens and work with the same applications on the same data. Users will be allowed to take turns in interacting with the shared applications. In addition, MMTCA will cater for asynchronous cooperation (workflow), ie the ability of two or more users to work cooperatively at different times by exchanging files under MMTCA's supervision and management. Furthermore, MMTCA will allow users to employ specialised applications manipulating audio and video information, such as video conferencing systems. MMTCA is designed specifically for the modern office environment where all offices are equipped with MS Windows-capable personal computers, interconnected through local area networks. The organisation's data reside in databases accessible throughout the whole network using standard interfaces. MMTCA supports all de facto and emerging industry standards such as Windows Sockets, TCP/IP, ODBC, SQL, etc. Ámbito científico natural sciencescomputer and information sciencesdatabasesrelational databases Programa(s) FP3-ESPRIT 3 - Specific research and technological development programme (EEC) in the field of information technologies, 1990-1994 Tema(s) Data not available Convocatoria de propuestas Data not available Régimen de financiación Data not available Coordinador Intrasoft Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección Adrianiou Street 2 11525 Athenes Grecia Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos Participantes (5) Ordenar alfabéticamente Ordenar por aportación de la UE Ampliar todo Contraer todo BANCO DEL COMERCIO España Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección PO DE LA CASTELLANA, 108 28046 MADRID Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos INTRACOM SA-HELLENIC TELECOM.& ELECTR.INDUSTRY Grecia Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección 19.5 KM MARKOPOULOU AVENUE, 68, 68 19002 PEANIA - ATTIKA Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos Institut für Seeverkehrswirtschaft und Logistik Alemania Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección Universitätsallee GW 1, Block A 28359 Bremen Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos NOVOSOFT España Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección COLOMBIA STREET, 62 28016 MADRID Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos University of Paisley Reino Unido Aportación de la UE Sin datos Dirección High Street PA1 2BE Paisley Ver en el mapa Coste total Sin datos
