Why no collaboration-like tube between activities?
Are you referring to a tube strictly between two laptops (e.g. one student
runs Measure and another runs a charting tool) or also in the case of two
activities running concurrently on the same machine?

The Measure activity is another approach to consider: data collection
from multiple sources are shared and displayed in the same
visualization space.

The clipboard and the Journal are two recommended mechanisms. I would
think that in the case of the Chart activity, the Journal would
generally be more appropriate: you gather/generate some data in one
activity, save to Journal, and then open the data file in Chart to
explore various

Interesting idea. I don't see why this couldn't work; I am not sure of
the security implications, but I don't see why collaboration always
has to be between two identical activities.

I thought Fred was getting at a much simpler idea. For example,
Measure, when it is collaborating, is sending a simple data stream to
each member of the collaboration. Why couldn't a chart program join in
and instead of rendering the datastream as a waveform, it would render
it as a piechart. Of
Just thinking at the conceptual level. How about filtering irrelevant
method calls and signals? How about a RESTful interface (

I don't know. Just thinking...

Would someone be interested in mentoring me in this project?
Also, a thought about collaboration:
I think it would be quite useful to allow a group of students to share data
and edit it collaboratively in real time. Students working on an experiment
in class could each be assigned to collect a
