Abstract :
Describes an architecture for implementing Electronic Meeting Systems (EMS) applications in an Object-Oriented Programming Environment. The environment is based on the C++ programming language and personal computers communicating over a local area network. An overview of C++ class concepts and terminology is included to familiarize the reader with terminology peculiar to C++ and necessary for the implementation of the design. The Object-Oriented EMS architecture is a three tier structure having layers for base classes, tools, and applications. The OO-EMS design addresses concurrency control, object addressing, duplicated objects, and broadcast communications
