Abstract
The multi-version approach is useful in both synchronous and asynchronous groupware systems. This paper discusses the implementation of a real-time group editor that embodies our approaches and algorithms based on multi-versioning, which can preserve individual users´ concurrent conflicting intentions in a consistent way. To highlight the distinct contributions of our work, we also present a detailed description of some novel features of the system
