Abstract

Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) embodies the interaction, distribution and cooperation of the work among people of this information era. Shared Objects Cooperative Manipulating System (SOCMS) is one of the most popular applications of CSCW. We present a framework of SOCMS based on the blackboard model. This framework is composed of one data blackboard and two control blackboards. The data blackboard contains the shared objects and the control blackboards contain the control knowledge. It resolves the concurrency, security of the shared objects and the identification of the roles of cooperators. We also analyze several key techniques of the SOCMS
