Abstract

Ubiquitous or pervasive computing is a new kind of computing, where specialized elements of hardware and software will have such high level of deployment that their use will be fully integrated with the environment.Augmented reality extends reality with virtual elements but tries to place the computer in a relatively unobtrusive, assistive role. To our knowledge, there is no specialized network middleware solution for large-scale mobile and pervasive augmented reality games. We describe here in general work on a Phd focusing on the creation of such network middleware for mobile and pervasive entertainment, applied to the area of large scale augmented reality games.
