The emergency of HTML 5 enhances the capabilities of real time interaction on Web and innovates the development of real-time collaboration in Web browser. This paper proposes a joint framework for HTML 5 specification and a double-model architecture for real-time Web collaboration development. A simple collaboration modeling language is developed to illustrate the shared model concept.
