In modern object-oriented computer systems the internal state of the entire system consists of the internal states of many objects, probably distributed over a heterogeneous network of computers. The man machine interaction in such an application is based on the visualization of states on one hand and the modification of states in combination with event generation on the other hand. This paper describes concept and realization of a reusable service for general man machine communication.
