Abstract. Architectural patterns have been proposed in many domains to capture recurring design problems that arise in specific design situations. This article presents an architectural pattern to help modeling the coordination and communication services required by mobile groupware platforms. This pattern serves as educational media for developers, students or researchers on how to design coordination and communication services for mobile groupware systems. The pattern also fosters the reuse of proven solutions.

Keywords: Coordination patterns, Communication patterns, Mobile Groupware, Mobile collaboration
