  • Abstract
    The need for open computer support for cooperative work (CSCW) systems is examined. Their requirements and impact on distributed systems are discussed. The Mocca project for developing an environment which will support open CSCW systems is described. It is shown that the open distributed systems (ODP) experience and approach can be a valuable tool in realizing open CSCW systems. Similarly, the ODP standardization effort can benefit both from the experience of CSCW application developers and from the requirements which CSCW systems place on their distributed platform
