Abstract

This paper explores the issues involved in designing and developing network software architectures for large scale virtual environments. We present our ideas in the context of NPSNET-IV, the first 3D virtual environment that incorporates both the IEEE 1278 Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) application protocol and the IP Multicast network protocol for multi-player simulation over the Internet.
