Description
Desktop Web Conferencing is defined as applications that enable Internet-based synchronous, real-time meetings with participants in multiple, geographically distributed locations using audio and video input devices such as desktop cameras and speaker phones. Desktop Web Conferencing allows meeting participants to view and hear each other, access shared content, share applications and screens with remote control, markup documents, perform electronic white-boarding, and present slide-shows. Additional functions may include surveys, integration with shared virtual workspace, and presence management. These applications may be hosted internally by NIH or by an external service provider.
