Abstract

Distributed synchronous collaborative design and manufacturing is considered as an important aspect of collaborative design and manufacturing in network environments, and is gaining more and more attention. In this paper, C-Superman, a Web-Based synchronous collaborative system is presented. Then, system implementation mode, system architecture and function modules are described. Furthermore, some key technologies such as session communication and data transmission, concurrent control and consistency maintenance, cooperative awareness in remote environments and load balancing are addressed.
