Abstract:
The objective of the research project is the importation, representation
and 3D navigation of a large-scale city model. The model will be the
backbone for the construction of the proposed Virtual Dublin project.
The research & design carried out was aimed to identify issues in
distributed multi-user Virtual Environments (VE).
A simulation was created which demonstrates the many benefits of the
proposed architecture including the following
? 3D Rendering: Level of Detail its importance and benefits
towards acceptable response times
? Distributed Database: Provides polygonal mesh data and
removes the need for replicated data.
? A Multi-tasking Environment: Allows for the required multiuser
activities
? Dead Reckoning: Reduces the network traffic required
contributing towards quicker response times and more up to
date rendering.
The subsequent performance evaluation identified areas for further
development and future work.
