Abstract

We present a set of protocols designed to be used for special communication needs in client-server based virtual environments. They address simulation, animation, interaction and VE authoring, and can be combined as needed for multiple levels of participation in the VE. Separating these tasks in different optimized protocols leads to more efficiency in using the given bandwidth of todays computer networks.
