AIMNET: The Key Techniques in Distributed Virtual Environment
分布式虚拟环境AIMNET的关键技术概述

This paper introduces the key techniques in distributed virtual environment AIMNET developed by Nanjing University. Using the methods of Interest Management by reference, AIMNET advances the communication topology structure of bi-directional shared multicast tree, in order to reduce the number of messages and emphasize the scalability of the system. At the same time, the distribution of static data is presented in this paper, in company with the remote real-time rendering technology, which includes load balancing, data-compression, progress rendering, dead reckoning and data pre-fetching.
