Abstract

In this paper, we explain the architecture and provide implementation details of a synchronous collaborative tool we created using a lightweight Web 2.0 mash-up development methodology. This approach allowed us to put together a client interface with reasonable capabilities, scalability, and robustness rapidly. The rapid development of this tool also allowed us to perform thorough testing and incorporation of the system in a live, production environment in a relatively short amount of time.
