VNC is one of popular thin client computing systems, which supports cross-platform remote control using the RFB protocol. Unfortunately, since VNC does not provide functions specially designed for collaboration, it is difficult to collaborate effectively through the remote control function of VNC. In this paper, we present the extension of the UltraVNC server and the JavaViewer client which are one of open-source VNC systems. For effective real-time collaboration, the extended VNC provides three kinds of access authorities to control the collaboration server: administrator, worker, and spectator. The administrator can control the access authorities of the users through the access control tool, newly provided in the extended JavaViewer. The workers can access the resources of the remote server, whereas the spectator cannot handle those remote resources, only monitoring the remote server. In addition, the extended VNC provides the one-click connection facility for easy connection to the collaboration server from many collaboration participants.

The purpose of this study is to propose the factors affecting collaboration between community nurses and social workers in Korea. Data that is used in this study, were collected from 295 provider respondents by questionnaire, additionally from telephone survey and secondary data review. This study focuses on the working relationship between professionals in the field of health and social care. Based on the literature review, this study proposes a conceptual framework for collaboration between nurses and social workers in community health and social care. The dependent variable in this study is collaboration. It reveals whether or not the inter-professional works and shows the level of collaboration. The independent variables are categorized in: the client characteristics (frailty of client, client-provider relationship); the provider characteristics (specialization, perception of interdependence, perception of the other professional); the organization characteristics (closeness of the other professional, autonomy, on-the-job training, evaluation-reward); and the community characteristics (urbanization, capacity of resources). Major findings are as follows: First, the factors that appear to have the strongest impact on whether or not inter-professional working of respondent sampled are: the perception of other professional; the perception of interdependence; closeness of, the, other professional; and the frailty of client. Secondly, the factors that found to have the most significant effect on level of cooperation are: the perception of, the other professional; on-the-job training; evaluation-reward; and the closeness of the other professional.

This paper proposes the distributed virtual environment framework for collaboration between heterogeneous platforms. The proposed system consists of Client, Content Server(CS), and Reflector Server(RS). The Client is composed of VR library(VRL), Interaction Manager(IM), Distributed Interaction Manager(DIM), and Network Interface(NI). The proposed Client structure can support various display environments. The XML-based IM and DIM lets the users define and add the interactions. The proposed Server structure synchronizes the distributed interaction between heterogeneous platforms and provides transparency to the users. Therefore, the proposed framework enables the users to implement virtual collaboration environment for their tasks. Moreover, it can also be used for research and development activities between a large number of the remote users. The usefulness of the framework was verified by applying it to the virtual heritage tour system.

Purpose: This study examined characteristics and patterns of interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation in Korea. Methods: We surveyed two community health centers, ninety-five hospitals or clinics, ninety- two pharmacies, and sixty-five health welfare organizations in two districts of Seoul in 2020. Data on the organizations' characteristics of smoking cessation and interorganizational activities for information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration were collected and analyzed using network statistics and blockmodeling. Results: Network size was in the order of information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration networks. Network patterns for interorganizational activities on information sharing, client referral, and program collaboration among four organizations were similar between the two districts. Community health centers provided information and received clients from a majority of the organizations. Their interactions were not unidirectional but mutual with other organizations. Pharmacies were involved in information sharing with health welfare organizations and client referrals to hospitals or clinics. Health welfare organizations were primarily connected with the community health centers for client referrals and program collaboration. Conclusion: A community health center is the lead agency in interorganizational activities for smoking prevention and cessation. However, hospitals or clinics, pharmacies, and health welfare organizations also participate in interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation with diverse roles. This study would be evidence for developing future interorganizational networks for smoking prevention and cessation.

In this paper, we introduce our experience of the design and implementation of mobile collaboration system(MCS) that support people using mobile devices to participate in cooperative session. There are considerable differences between desktop PC and mobile devices like PDA in processing ability, resolution of display and color degree. In the case of mobile devices, they use different processors and different operating system and they have even differences in ability of executing application. The mobile collaborative system based on T.120 protocol of ITU-T standard compromised of mobile collaboration server, mobile collaboration client, session node and application. We also define the session node in desktop PC in which session control block and communication block runs. This node provide functions of session control block and communication block to mobile collaboration clients and so lighten load of clients. The mobile collaboration server provides information of candidates for session node, session and user to mobile collaboration client. And this server support clients to configure their own session node and manage sessions. Only the mobile collaboration client module and applications including APE are executed in a mobile device when user using mobile devices would like to participate in cooperative session. We implemented mobile collaboration client and applications with JAVA to support platform independency.

As an IETF standard protocol, WebDAV provides infrastructure for managing and authoring resources and supports asynchronous collaborative authoring on the Web. The CoSlide server is an extension of the Jakarta Slide WebDAV server, providing various workspaces and collaborative services through the WebDAV protocol. The CoSlide server supports workspaces for storing and sharing information of various users, and provides environment for effective collaborative authoring. Actual collaboration activities are performed through a collaboration client software which provides collaboration services along with the CoSlide server. In this paper, we describe the development of the CoSpace client which operates in association with the CoSlide server, presenting effective collaborative environment. The CoSpace client provides user interfaces for accessing and controlling the resources of each workspace on the CoSlide server. In particular, CoSpace provides the facility to launch an authoring application from its workspace view, automatic locking, and downloading the content to be edited, and resource movement using mouse drag & drop.

A client collaboration (CC) system is proposed for a user relay system. The proposed scheme focuses on the management of transmit power and leakage interference. In the proposed CC system, edge users transmit signals to the masters considered as user relays. The masters relay the signals of the edge users to the base station using the resource blocks (RBs) that are assigned to the edge users. The leakage interference and power consumption were analyzed in the CC system. In addition, an optimal master location problem was formulated based on the signal-to-leakage-plus-noise ratio (SLNR). Because the optimal master location problem is quite complex, a sub-optimal master location problem was proposed and a closed-form sub-optimal master location was obtained. The edge users generate smaller leakage interference and power consumption in the proposed CC system compared to the system without the CC. The numerical results showed that the edge users generate smaller leakage interference and power consumption in the proposed CC system compared to the system without the CC, and the average throughput increases.

WebDAV is a protocol to support collaboration among one or more groups in geographically distant locations through the internet. WebDAV extends the web communication protocol HTTP/1.1 to provide a standard infrastructure for .supporting asynchronous collaboration for various contents across the internet. A WebDAV client uses HTTP requests to perform a renewal and update action to the resources in WebDAY servers. So, it is desirable that the client supports the ability of authoring and version management with a good concurrency control and property management. In this paper, to enhance usability, we developed a .NET-based WebDAV client with a user interface similar to the Windows Explorer. The developed WebDAV client supports easy launching of the authoring application and appropriate lock control for the server resources. In addition, through the functionality of process monitoring, it supports automatic update of the server resources when the modification of the resources are completed by the user. The WebDAY client is a .NET-based application written in the C＃ language, running on any platform supporting a .NET framework.

Presented in this paper is a control model for developing virtual factory simulator, which is being operated under the distributed environment. The control model consists of production activity plan and information flows. To incorporate elements of the characteristics of the distributed control system, we suggested a collaboration model. This model is working under the client/server architecture, and also designed for cooperative-distributed shop control(CDSC) system in order to exploit several advantages of client/server architecture. Collaboration among each agent(or client) is done through negotiation and task sharing. Based on a contract net model, the CDSC system has three kinds of agents-order agent, resource agent, and communication forwarding agent. Each agent performs shop scheduling and control through negotiation on contract net. No node in CDSC system can have authority over other node. A bidding scheme is employed far negotiation between order agent and resource agents. The CDSC system can support re-negotiation among resource agents and an algorithm for re-negotiation is also developed. Experimental results are shown to advocate the effectiveness of the CDSC system for CIM environments.
