Abstract

With the development of new web technologies, web-based collaborative applications, exemplified by office applications, are emerging to take advantage of web's attractive features. We propose to plug a collaborative engine into web-based office applications so that advanced collaboration capabilities can be seamlessly integrated without compromising or modifying their conventional capabilities. This engine lies on application-independent data addressing and operation models to be reusable for a wide range of diverse applications without being modified. in this paper, we present a data addressing model for web-based word processors, which complies with the model used by the engine and shall lay a good foundation for investigating data addressing models for other web-based applications.
