TY - CONF T1 - pLVE: Suitable Network Protocol Supporting Multi-User Virtual Environments in Education T2 - International Confertence on Information and Communication Technologies for Education/ED-ICT 2000, Vienna, Austria Y1 - 2000 A1 - Christos Bouras A1 - Thrasivoulos Tsiatsos AB - Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) and the broad use of communication networks provide the users with realistic virtual environments. However these environments need and a pioneer application such as distance learning. In order to realize suitable educational virtual environments the desired functionality should be collected, a general architecture should be specified and a suitable communication protocol between the components of the system should be designed. In this paper we present the design rationale for such a communication protocol.
