Abstract

Abstract: The Interactive Sharing Transfer Protocol (ISTP) supports the sharing of information about a virtual world among a group of processes. The key advantages of ISTP are that it supports: near real-time interaction among users; the communication of every kind of information required in a virtual world; and scalability to large numbers of users and large virtual worlds. ISTP was developed in the context of the Spline platform for distributed virtual environments (DVEs).
