ConferenceXP and Advanced Collaborative Scenarios

摘要

ConferenceXP is an initiative of Microsoft Research exploring how to make wireless classrooms, advanced realtime collaboration, and distance learning a compelling, rich experience by assuming the availability of emerging and enabling technologies, such as high-bandwidth networks, multicast, wireless devices and Tablet PCs. The ConferenceXP research platform enables researchers to create distributed applications that take advantage of ConferenceXP technology as well as Tablet PCs and wireless networks while enabling them to develop the collaborative tools and applications they need without having to build them from the ground up. By partnering with research organizations and universities, the ConferenceXP project combines the academic community’s expertise in the learning sciences with Microsoft’s expertise in technology.
