Abstract

This article presents a study on architecture for virtual environment distribution as support tool the learning multidisciplinary projects. In this study different distribution platforms had been evaluated with the objective to identify that one that with more efficiency allowed exactly that occurred alterations in an environment modify the behavior of others, that these are related to other areas of the knowledge. Building prototypes following same methodology, modifying aspects of the data model and having the latency, scaling up and extensibility as method of comparison had demonstrated to which the best choice for building multidisciplinary virtual environment. Virtual environments of Biology (landscape with plants, water, light and land) and Chemistry (membrane and molecules) had been used having the phenomenon of the photosynthesis as study of case and relation between two environments.
