3D TechnologiesApplication Framework for Tele-CollaborationThe NRC Institute for Information Technology (NRC-IIT) research project, Application Framework for Tele-Collaboration, will provide a powerful high performance framework for developing collaborative software applications in the field of tele-collaboration. Developing collaborative software is an inherently complex task that often involves dealing with real-time constraints, resource limitations and complex synchronization problems. This project approaches these problems by combining a generic software framework with advanced code generation techniques in order to allow generic software solutions to be easily applied to specific application contexts. The software framework allows adaptations to the development process for collaborative applications so that the process corresponds more closely to the development process for single user applications. The goal is to have the two development processes be as similar as possible. In addition to simplifying the development process, the project also aims at providing a high performance framework for the development of real-time synchronous collaborative applications. Advanced features that will be provided for such applications include:
The results of this project provide a solid base for applied research in the field of tele-collaboration by facilitating the development of research prototypes in new application fields. One such application is demonstrated in the linked NRC-IIT project, DIMENSION, where these research results provided the foundation for the development of an advanced 3D collaborative visualization environment. The collaborative software used in DIMENSION allows for the sharing and dynamic transformation of complex 3D worlds. OpportunitiesInquiries about collaborating in this research are welcome.
