The PPPSpace: Innovative Concepts for Permanent Capturing, Persistent Storing, and Parallel Processing and Distributing Events

Media spaces provide users with flexible support for easy interaction with technology and with each other, both at the same place and over distance. From a technological perspective the development of these environments is often inefficient, since most environments are developed specifically, without any synergies or reuse of previous concepts and implementations. In this paper we present the cooperative media space PPPSpace that is based on powerful technical parallel and distributed software engineering concepts and at the same time easy to use for end-users.
