Abstract

There exist two problems in the research and application of computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) systems for dynamic alliances. One is that there are different structures (software and hardware) in CSCW systems. The other is that CSCW systems are not supported by an external environment. This paper presents a CORBA (common object request broker architecture) based CSCW system for the alliance centre of the dynamic alliance. This system can not only provide an external environment which can provide resource searching, group decision support, multi-part communication and other services for alliancing enterprises, but also implement application communication by solving problems resulting from the different structures of CSCW systems. An application model developed by Jaguar CTS (Jaguar component transaction server) is described.
