Abstract. Distributed Virtual Environment systems have experienced a spectacular growth last years. One of the key issues in the design of scalable and costeffective DVE systems is...
A cost-effective approach to building up scalable Videoon-Demand (VoD) servers is to couple a number of VoD servers together in a cluster. In this article, we study a crucial vide...
We propose the design of Plug, an application to find and keep contacts with friends within many inter-connected 3D virtual worlds. Users use an instant messenger (IM)-like inter...
