  text: '<jats:p>Today’s simulation software normally has fixed, built-in editing
    and visualization views adapted to a specific problem domain. Often this monolithic
    concept prevents collaborative editing altogether. Even with more flexible concepts,
    editing simulation models with a heterogeneous set of clients is not possible.
    In this article we describe a flexible concept for collaborative editing of simulation
    models with heterogeneous clients, such as web-based, desktop and mobile clients.
    The clients may even show different editing views adapted to the user’s role.
    The concept we describe in this paper overcomes several problems: First we need
    to be able to connect and manage a set of heterogeneous clients in the simulation
    software. The very different user inputs from the connected clients then need
    to be processed, interpreted and combined to allow editing in a collaborative
    way for all users. At last we show a prototypical integration of the presented
    concept into our research platform d3fact.</jats:p>'
