Collaborative Modeling Tools
Posted: Thu Apr 29, 2004 1:22 pm
Hi all,
For a project in which some SD-Modeling is going to be done, I need
to work together with some people who are in geographically dispersed
areas.
To make working together easier, we have begun using Instant Messaging
as a communication tool. This seems to work pretty well, but right now,
it is text-only, and text is not always rich enough to communicate ideas.
We need to draw maps and diagrams too. Sending these back and forth
isn't the ideal solution.
Do any of you have experience with such a setting? If so, which tools
are available and suitable for communication between modelers (or
modelers and experts)? I'm thinking of whiteboard tools, forums, online
drawing programs etc.
They may be synchronous (real-time) or asynchronous.
Kind regards,
