Popis: This chapter describes the most important problems of current Collaborative Working Environments (CWEs), indicating some of the requirements for next generation of CWEs collected by the Expert Group@Collaboration. Moreover it analyzes Service-Oriented Architecture technologies and semantic concepts for fulfilling the requirements previously analyzed. After that, it describes a reference architecture for future CWEs which is based on technologies analyzed before and that satisfies the requirements introduced to overcome the problems of CWEs. In order to show how this architecture can help in the building of future CWEs three of the applications are depicted based on it, indicating some of the advantages and disadvantages presented.
