Scaling OpenSimulator : An Examination of Possible Architectures for an InternetScale Virtual Environment Network
This dissertation describes an analysis of possible architectures for an Internetscale virtual
environment network. These are treated as evolutions of an existing virtual environment
architecture embodied in an opensource project called OpenSimulator. Distributed computing
concepts and Z schemas are used to examine both the existing OpenSimulator architecture and the
alternative configurations.
