Abstract :
The concept of collaborations capturing dynamic aspects of a distributed system across agent boundaries is introduced. Some ways of composing collaborations are illustrated, with collaborations being implicitly represented as state machine fragments. The concepts are exemplified by the Internet Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and consequences for a potential SIP implementation are discussed
