Computing in a distributed environment for multitasked cooperative work is a promising area that presents many coordination issues. Our prototype system implements a three-layer architecture to provide greater control and flexibility in the distributed multitasking environment. The architecture includes a groupware server, application servers, and clients. The architecture can be further refined to provide more flexible control of activities. More applications, such as group calendaring and participative design can also be studied to find their idiosyncratic coordination needs and to elaborate the division of labor among different servers and clients.
