“…Previous works, such as [13]- [15], mostly present a general picture of the field, summarizing technologies, architectures, and challenges involved in developing the Metaverse. Other works, such as [16], [17], primarily focus on human-machine interaction aspects of the virtual learning experience (i.e., the interface component in our architecture). In contrast, our work is mainly focused on the resource allocation challenge to achieve convergence between the Metaverse and the physical world (i.e., the cross-world component in our architecture).…”

Spurred by the severe restrictions on mobility due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is currently intense interest in developing the Metaverse, to offer virtual services/business online. A key enabler of such virtual service is the digital twin, i.e., a digital replication of real-world entities in the Metaverse, e.g., city twin, avatars, etc. The real-world data collected by IoT devices and sensors are key for synchronizing the two worlds. In this paper, we consider the scenario in which a group of IoT devices are employed by the Metaverse platform to collect such data on behalf of virtual service providers (VSPs). Device owners, who are self-interested, dynamically select a VSP to maximize rewards. We adopt hybrid evolutionary dynamics, in which heterogeneous device owner populations can employ different revision protocols to update their strategies. Extensive simulations demonstrate that a hybrid protocol can lead to evolutionary stable states.

“…Meanwhile, sensors in real life can get information from the physical world and hence impacts virtual projection in virtual worlds [194]. Based on the above infrastructure, creators in the metaverse can socialise with each other in the virtual worlds, and achieve their common goals in situational contexts [169], e.g., creating new artistic contents that serve the goal of expressing Japanese culture and architectures (Figure 2b) [195]. Additionally, the metaverse is characterised by a virtual marketplace, driven by blockchain technology, which facilitates peer-to-peer item trading (Figure 2c) in the metaverse [48].…”

The metaverse, enormous virtual-physical cyberspace, has brought unprecedented opportunities for artists to blend every corner of our physical surroundings with digital creativity. This article conducts a comprehensive survey on computational arts, in which seven critical topics are relevant to the metaverse, describing novel artworks in blended virtual-physical realities. The topics first cover the building elements for the metaverse, e.g., virtual scenes and characters, auditory, textual elements. Next, several remarkable types of novel creations in the expanded horizons of metaverse cyberspace have been reflected, such as immersive arts, robotic arts, and other user-centric approaches fuelling contemporary creative outputs. Finally, we propose several research agendas: democratising computational arts, digital privacy and safety for metaverse artists, ownership recognition for digital artworks, technological challenges, and so on. The survey also serves as introductory material for artists and metaverse technologists to begin creations in the realm of surrealistic cyberspace.CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → Mixed / augmented reality; Graphical user interfaces; • Computing methodologies → Machine learning approaches.
