%X the aim of this work was to determine if the open cobalt platform has the necessary features to implement interactive simulations in a collaborative environment. the use and development of resources such as open cobalt, a tool for creating virtual worlds, present an interesting research field, from the technological perspective as well as from the educational point of view. this platform was selected for analysis mainly because it has a decentralized communications scheme and it is developed in a dynamic programming language. a set of features of the platform was chosen to analyze and based on the tests results it is concluded that open cobalt has the necessary resources to generate interactive simulations in a collaborative environment.
