Approaches to Distributing Virtual Reality Systems

چکیده

Virtual Reality (VR) systems, especially multi-user systems, can benefit from and often require a distributed realisation1. This paper surveys the approaches to data and event modelling and distribution adopted by a number of VR systems and assesses the merits of each approach. The theme of objective versus subjective world views is developed and used as a basis for comparing the systems. The approaches taken to dynamic configuration are also considered and compared. It is suggested that a VR system should have a flexible and extensible state and event system, and should support flexible and dynamic reconfiguration controlled by an expressive security system. The area of subjective presentation of virtual worlds is highlighted as requiring further work.

The General Variables Concept: A Simple Step from Single- to Multi-user Environment

When implementing multi-user cooperation systems in networked virtual environments, synchronizing local representations of shared virtual world has to be considered. It involves distributing and storing the data that represent users’ activity in the virtual world. In this paper we propose a concept of general variables, which formalizes the task of distributing, journaling and locking the data ...
