- This paper presents a novel Web Service based distributed collaborative CAD system employing feature as its collaborative design element and uses XML to define feature operations and communication protocol between the server and the client. To reduce network load and increase response ability of the system, the feature information is updated incrementally on the client. The system supports collaborative designing on heterogeneous platforms. Its framework and communication protocols are analyzed in detail. The experimental results from the developed prototype system showed that it can effectively support collaborative design under the distributed environment. |

- In the early 1990s, the Wharton School implemented a major revamp of its MBA curriculum which BusinessWeek magazine (May 13, 1991) described as "the most radical departure in business education since the early 1960s." The new curriculum brought together leadership training, a comprehensive global management orientation, and an emphasis on collaboration and teamwork. The development of technology at the Wharton School is closely allied to this vision of management education. When Wharton sought to deploy an environment for courseware throughout the School, rather than implementing a traditional course management system, the School deployed an enterprise groupware solution built around EMC Documentum's eRoom. |

- The Merck group, based in Darmstadt, Germany, comprises 168 firms in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry in 56 countries. Clinical trials are executed using various software systems, including a back-end trial management system connected to an Oracle database. Forms and workflows have to be able to transfer information to the system and process extracted data. Because the trial management system is deployed on a global scale, it has to be operated using a Web browser to ensure direct intranet access to forms for Merck employees and VPN access for external partners. Adobe server software provided all the solutions required to create and manage flexible form layouts and intelligent documents. |

- The Semantic Web is an area of current research focus in many disciplines including software engineering. However, the breadth of knowledge required to understand development on the Semantic Web combined with the rapidly changing state of the field requires that teaching approaches to the Semantic Web be flexible. This paper describes a collaborative approach used to teach a course on the Semantic Web. Techniques used in the course included positioning the instructor as co-learner, joint decision-making by instructor and class, and the use of a group project. |

- Item-based Collaborative Filtering (CF) algorithms have been designed to deal with the scalability problems associated with traditional user-based CF approaches without sacrificing recommendation or prediction accuracy. The integration of semantic similarities for items with rating- or usage-based similarities allows the system to make inferences based on the underlying reasons for which a user may or may not be interested in a particular item. In this paper, an approach for semantically enhanced collaborative filtering is introduced in which structured semantic knowledge about items, extracted automatically from the Web based on domain-specific reference ontologies, is used in conjunction with user-item mappings to create a combined similarity measure and generate predictions. |
