Abstract

In the work presented we propose the definition, design of a Cooperative Work Model (CWM) [1] and a Cooperative Work Language (CWL) [2], and the implementation of an interface to support Cooperative Work in a Distributed Systems environment, called ICW 1, inspired upon the definition of CSP [3], and the basic notions of processes and pipes used in Unix [4].

ICW stands for Interface for Cooperative Work.
