Web Conferencing is a multimedia application which allows a group of people to meet online and allow collaboration between dispersed teams. Using web conferencing, groups are able to see, hear, text chat, present and share information in a collaborative manner. This application is widely used in business and education environment as well as for personal communication. However, in Malaysia context, there still lack of web conference application developed. Therefore, the purpose of this project is to develop web conference prototype that allows user communicate among themselves via the network. Then, this project attempts to measure the bandwidth usage in order to analyze its performance on the network since there is lack of monitoring process done after completion of an application. Hence, the results shows that the web conference application intends to overcome the traditional meeting and provide high quality of multimedia application system. The application performance in terms of bandwidth usage show positive indicative for further enhancement of the project as it involves high quality of QoS.
