   ViewPoints
  
      A framework for distributed and {concurrent}
      software engineering which provides an alternative approach to
      traditional centralised software development environments.
  
      Decentralised process models are used to drive consistency
      checking and conflict resolution.   The process models use
      pattern matching on local development histories to determine
      the particular state of the development process, and employ
      rules to trigger situation-dependent assistance to the user.
      Communication between such process models facilitates the
      decentralised management of explicitly defined consistency
      constraints.
