On Network Latency in Distributed Interactive Applications
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper has three objectives. Firstly it describes the historical development of Distributed Interactive Applications. It then defines network latency. Finally it describes a new approach to masking network latency in Distributed Interactive Applications called the strategy model approach. This approach derives from the on-going PhD studies of one of the authors. A software application to gather strategy data from users is described in detail and an example of deriving a user strategy is given.

Latency sensitive interactive applications such as virtual desktops for enterprise workers are slated to be important driving applications for next generation cloud infrastructures. Determining where to geographically place desktop VMs in a globally distributed cloud so as to optimize user-percieved performance is an important and challenging problem. Historically, the performance of thin-clien...
متن کاملInteractive latency-sensitive applications in mobile ad-hoc networks
In this thesis we discuss the challenges that latency-sensitive interactive applications face in mobile ad-hoc networks. By using multi-player games as an example, we argue that the traditional client-server architecture is unsuitable for this new environment. We consequently create a novel communication architecture as well as quality of service mechanisms that can support the network requirem...
