Abstract:
ARéVi is a Distributed Virtual Reality Toolkit. ARéVi is built on our dynamic multiagent language, oRis. This dynamic language is particularly well adapted to the creation of co-operative applications. In fact, during an ARéVi session, this language allows the addition of new entities, and the modification of the behavior of an entity or a whole entity family. The modifications may either be introduced by the user or received by the network. In this article, we mainly present the co-operative characteristics of ARéVi which allow several applications (ARéVi sessions) to share the same 3D universe.
Keywords: Distributed Virtual Reality, Dynamic multiagent language, Java network communication, Mobile agents.
