Abstract
Web services and platforms such as .NET make it easy to integrate interactive end-user applications with backend services. However, it remains hard to build collaborative applications in which information is shared within teams. We present a new drag-and-drop technology, in which standard office documents (spreadsheets, databases, etc.) are interconnected with eventdriven middleware ("live distributed objects"), to create distributed applications in which changes to underlying data propagate quickly to downstream applications. Information is replicated in a consistent manner, making it easy for team members to share updates and to coordinate their actions. In this demo, we present our middleware platform in office automation settings which is highly automated and highly configurable.
