| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Collaborative Web applications for editing require synchronization of DOM objects. However, existing approaches cannot solve the canvas drawing delay problem, because a canvas DOM element should clear and redraw all of the drawings on updating or removing some drawings. We developed a new canvas mechanism to reduce the delays for collaborative Web applications. We focused on drawing delays, which are a primary bottleneck of synchronization of objects on a canvas. The new canvas mechanism achieves the automatic assignment of canvas objects to elicit high performance under unknown drawing-frequency. The automatic assignment algorithm is inspired by the generational garbage collection. We implemented and evaluated the mechanism, and then the mechanism elicited higher performance up to 3.5 times faster when the canvas had the sufficient number of layers. The mechanism enhances the potential of the Web applications running within low performance devices such as tablets and smartphones.
