Dynamic Terrain Data Exchange in a Collaborative Terrain Editor

In a computer supported cooperative work (CSCW), data consistency between collaborating users is crucial issue. Based on the type of application, ensuring can be lengthy process that takes time and affects system’s performance. most 3D terrain are massive due to its size. Exchanging this may expensive cause significant delay. real-time collaborative editor, issue becomes more exchange consistently occurred users. We present solution perform conflict-free dynamic in editor. Our objective develop method able ensure amongst peers manner. The main idea our split into smaller patches synchronize changes efficiently by only exchanging modified patches. applied editor application test performance editing session. tests were done multiple scenarios, using different patch model, brush size (in editor), connection setup server clients. result shows protocol capable maintain clients edition delay varied highly depends client-server environment setup. overall it possible with an acceptable response paper, we proposed method, implementation, from test.
