PLATINE

The interests of synchronous communications in collaborative activities have been recognized by an important number of researches and experiments. More recent technical environments offer the use of synchronous communications as a collaborative learning solution for a group of distributed users, where each one gains independence from each other and joins a collaboration activity by their own.

The PLATINE environment offers a lot of mechanisms that can be used in different contexts: e-learning ,co-design, cooperative work, …..

The PLATINE environment is a software platform used to support remote collaboration among users. Two main kinds of interactions can be encountered within collaborative groups: asynchronous collaboration, that does not require the group members to be present at the same time and synchronous collaboration, where remote users work in co-presence; PLATINE is mainly devoted to synchronous collaboration.

 

The PLATINE environment is made up of the following components:

an off-line session preparation module: OSP

 

an asynchronous session state display with an “asynchronous” chat: ASSD

 

a synchronous session state display: SSD

a multi user visioconference: Jvisio

a multipoint chat: Jchat

an application sharing: AST

a shared whiteboard: SW

a session manager: SM

 

A session is composed of an asynchronous phase, and a synchronous phase.

Some roles can be defined for one session, and the chairman attribute can be assigned to some roles.

The chairman can manage the synchronous phase of the session.
