Abstract
A network-based collaboration system and method can be used to create, modify or otherwise manipulate a design using heterogeneous applications on clients connected to a network. The system and method enables design collaboration between the heterogeneous applications each having a different design abstraction and a different local data model by exchanging application states normalized at a design abstraction level recognized by each of the heterogeneous applications.
