Abstract
A multi-user domain is implemented in a compound document framework to collaboratively modify a compound document in accordance with a concurrency model. A server hosts a multi-user domain in which a plurality of clients participate. The multi-user domain includes a compound document having a shared container part and at least one shared content part. Each participating client can use its own part editors to modify the document. Modification information is sent to the server, which updates the shared document to other clients in accordance with a concurrency model.
