Sharing data is an important aspect in distributed design
environments and should be supported by an underlying system. Any
synchronous access to data is conflict prone. Applying concurrency
control and two phase commit are one option to be considered. But
design processes also demand for cooperation between the designers.
Negotiation about actions on the product under design and the early
exchange of preliminary results are crucial issues. Controlled data
access by itself does not fulfil all the needs for cooperation. We
will present a new approach that relies on a concept and system
model which integrates concurrent activities by a joint information
space offering flexible protocols for cooperation on the shared
objects. We will describe the customizability of the protocols to
effectively support different cooperative scenarios.
