متن کاملTowards Virtual Worlds and Augmented Realities: A Research Agenda
Powerful drivers combine to enable the capture of reality in computers as well as the ubiquitous delivery of information content and services, based on the captured reality. We outline key drivers, exemplify application areas related to the research agenda, and describe briefly general software challenges as well as one specific data representation challenge to software technologies posed by th...
متن کاملExploring "Multiple Worlds" in Parallel
We examine computing alternative solutions to a problem in parallel to improve response time. Problems with exploring multiple alternatives in parallel include (1) side-effects and (2) combinatorial explosion in the amount of state which must be preserved. These are solved by process management and an application of ‘‘copy-on-write’’ virtual memory management. The side effects resulting from in...
