Abstract

This paper studies extensible network virtual environments from a mobile device perspective. In this context a mobile device is a power limited device, whose battery capacity, available connection speed, graphical computing power and performance are very limited and the screen size is highly variable. As a solution to enable extensible virtual world services for mobile devices, this paper proposes methods and an architecture to reduce the amount of data traffic and strategies to dynamically adjust graphical complexity for mobile device characteristics.
