Abstract
An object of the present invention is to allow a plurality of people to manipulate a large amount of consistent graphic data concurrently and to simplify development of application programs having a distributed input facility. Data 2 to be manipulated is stored in one workstation among a plurality of workstations WS1 to WSn connected over a network 5. The data 2 is divided and displayed on each of the workstations. Operators operate input means (e.g., a mouse) included in each workstation to process the data 2 concurrently. A device for implementing a distributed input environment is installed in a window system 1. A window copying unit 1g creates copies of, for example, an editing window opened in one workstation, whereby windows are opened in the other workstations.
