TDE: Supporting Geographically Distributed Software Design with Shared, Collaborative Workspaces

Telecom Design Environment (TDE) is a software product that combines three challenging technology dimensions: 1) Information management dimension: TDE allows direct, interactive, visual management of documents and other design information in a shared, versioned, graphical working space; 2) CASE tool dimension: TDE provides graphical design tools for supporting different design notations that are helpful in designing and communicating about software systems; 3) Collaboration dimension: TDE serves as a virtual whiteboard system that allows designers to share the same graphical working space location-transparently, and to work on the same graphical designs even at the same time if necessary.
