The general variables concept: a simple step from single- to multi-user environment

Abstract: 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 in the client-server model. To verify the employability of the concept, we have implemented a Java bundle comprising a… Show more

“…A taxonomy of the meanings and subtypes of copresence structuring human interaction in virtual environments is proposed by Zhao in [160], defined as the relationship between the physical conditions and the sense of being with others and how the former conditions the latter. Masa [79] describes the sensations users need to perceive for a complete experience in a CVRE:…”
