An Interest Management (IM) mechanism eliminates irrelevant status updates transmitted in Distributed Virtual Environments (DVE). This paper proposes a new hierarchical IM mechanism for DVEs. The hierarchical mechanism divides the virtual world into multiple levels of cells and keeps the relationship between an entity and an Area-Of-Interest (AOI) at a particular cell level according to their relative position. As their relative position changes, the relationship level is updated accordingly. Compared with the traditional area-based and cell-based mechanisms, the proposed hierarchical mechanism significantly reduces the communication bandwidth consumption of IM and thus considerably improves the scalability of DVEs. In addition, the proposed mechanism also has much lower computation cost than the traditional mechanisms and very acceptable storage requirement for its data structures.
