Unlike Suite and other higher-level infrastructures,
an XTV-like shared window system does not give users any flexibility
in determining the coupling among their user interfaces.
It provides a fixed WYSIWIS (What You See Is What I See) coupling,
which ensures that all users see identical views of a window.
In this project,
we are identifying
the
semantics,
architectures,
and implementations of shared windows that
semi-automatically and efficiently support the great variety of
view sharing methods found in higher-level systems.
