(PAPER DEADLINE: JUNE 1ST 1996)
Distributed Virtual Reality is a timely and attractive topic requiring
the interaction of interdisciplinary techniques. The neccessity to
use existing technologies up to their limits is a challenge for VR
application designers and programmers. But also from the point of analysis,
DVR systems provide an interesting testbed for performance evaluation,
including both, modeling and measurements approaches. While solutions for
the efficient implementation for single-user VR systems do exist - numerous
VR applications nowadays in the market prove this statement - there are
many open problems concerning the design, implementation, and analysis of
distributed/networked VR environment.
For this minitrack, we invite you to submit papers related to the following
research issues:
+ distributed virtual world representation
+ multimedia data processing in virtual worlds
+ networking and communication issues in DVREs
+ user interface
+ performance evaluation
+ quality of service
Please submit eight copies of the full manuscript by June 1, 1996 to:
