Abstract
MOCA is a suite of Internet tools to facilitate group-work in a distance learning environment, built using standard Java utilities. MOCA allows several users to work simultaneously on multimedia documents using a multimedia whiteboard and text-based chat. The system has been targeted for an advanced VLSI chip design course with student design teams composed of undergraduates and graduates at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst as well as off-campus students at a variety of industrial sites (e.g. Intel, IBM, Compaq, AMD). Advisors include University professors and teaching assistants as well as industrial mentors.
