DAgora: A Flexible, Scalable and Reliable Object-Oriented Groupware Platform
Jan 1997
In this paper we describe a flexible, scalable, and reliable "object-oriented groupware platform" specially tailored as a foundation to support synchronous, asynchronous, and multi-synchronous groupware applications. The platform relies on an hybrid replication approach where volatile objects are actively replicated to support synchronous interaction, and persistent objects are lazily replicated to meet scalability and availability requirements.
