    Collaborations between SME are different than the traditional OEM-supplier chains. Here are other requirements in the focus of interest: Low costs are often more important than powerful and complex software products as well as flexibility to integrate with any kind of application is more necessary than already available integration solution for big enterprise application, which are only sporadic used in SMEs. Therefore the CoVES (Collaborative Virtual Engineering for SMEs) project followed a new approach for flexible integration of web applications in collaboration environments. The approach differs from the currently promoted service oriented architectures. This paper focuses on two technical aspects of the CoVES architecture: Mashup concept, which is a technology for a seamless integrati on of web applications, and Single Sign On for an easy access on the distributed data sources.

    Die traditionelle Stärke von kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen (KMU) ist das flexible und kooperative Arbeiten, meist in firmeninternen Teams, die schnelle Entscheidungen durch kurze Wege ermöglichen. Die zunehmende Globalisierung der Märkte und die sich damit schnell ändernden Wettbewerbsbedingungen erfordern jedoch die unternehmensübergreifende Zusammenarbeit sowie Kooperation auch über regionale Grenzen hinaus. Dieser Wandel birgt speziell für KMU die Gefahr, dass die bestehende Flexibilität, Agilität und Innovationsfähigkeit eingeschränkt wird. Ein Schlüsselfaktor für den Erhalt und Ausbau der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit ist der Einsatz von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien (IuK) zur mobilen Unterstützung der Zusammenarbeit in virtuellen, vernetzten Teams.

    Collaboration and mobility are two actual trends in new product development today. Due to the globalization of the economies and the outsourcing of specific tasks, companies have to work together as Virtual Organisations. However, the work environments of the collaborating people are very complex. In every company different processes and IT systems are used. Additionally, people are seldom at their company site, especially in small and medium sized companies (SME) the key personnel are often on the road. There they have no access to their digital files and information resources of their companies. This paper describes the architecture concept of a mobile collaborative environment addressing these problems.
