Abstract :
Groupware systems are inherently concurrent and complex. To formally specify such systems, designers need powerful description tools capable of dealing with concurrency and mechanisms to manage the complexity. In this paper, we present an object-oriented specification language based on Petri nets, and its application to the modeling of a cooperative editor.
