  • Abstract

    In this paper, we describe a case study of the design and development of a group-conferencing tool suite, built on top of an overlay network based event dissemination framework, which is extensible via quality of service template plug-ins. We explain, for each of the tools, how the framework built-in conveniences were explored to create simple but effective distributed solutions, backed by the appropriate quality of service templates, whose design we also discuss.
