INDEX-SATAL 2010 participants are using a real-time text-based collaboration tool called the “Eventlog” to communicate and make log entries about ongoing operations. The log entries made by individuals are immediately disseminated to all other users in real time, allowing all participants, regardless of location, to see the observations made by their peers. The Eventlog tool leverages the same technology and standards-based protocols used on the Internet for instant messages (IM) and chatrooms.
