development of a system supporting information sharing
within an organizational environment. The system developed
is exploiting Intranet and Extranet technologies enabling
asynchronous and synchronous cooperation, manipulation of
information from heterogeneous sources, security and easy
administration, providing in parallel advanced communication
facilities. We propose an innovative approach for the
development of shared workspaces over WWW, based on
state-of-the-art software platforms, integrating WWW and
database technologies. The whole system was developed
under a project funded by the Greek General Secretariat of
Research and Technology and aims in the efficient
distribution and management of information between and
within different types of local authorities (Municipalities,
Prefectures).1 aBouras, Christos1 aTriantafillou, Vasilis1 aDestounis, P1 aGarofalakis, J1 aTzimas, J1 aZarafidis, P  uhttp://telematics.upatras.gr/telematics/publications/cooperative-information-systems-over-internet-and-www?language=el
