Abstract: In order to enhance design roles collaboration in project drawing design systems,according to the design collaboration requirements under computer network environment,a collaborative design system based on instant message was put forward,which combining the knowledge of Agent and workflow and synthesizing route,rule and role in the design process. The implementation method of system was analyzed. The method of controlling the exchanges of critical procedures by using instant message and e-mail monitoring technology on Intranet was provided. In this way,the collaboration of various system roles has been improved to guarantee efficient operation of the project drawing design workflow.
