Shadowing effects dramatically enhance the realism of virtual environments by providing useful visual cues. Shadow mapping is an efficient algorithm for real-time shadow renderin...
Traveling through immersive virtual environments (IVEs) by means of real walking is an important activity to increase naturalness of VR-based interaction. However, the size of the...

—Some current and future pervasive data driven applications must operate in ”extreme” environments where endto-end connectivity cannot be guaranteed at all times. In fact, it...
Providing a fully functional multimedia DBMS (MMDBMS) becomes an emergency with the recent development of distributed environments. In this paper, we address the impact of using w...
We present a novel, generic framework and algorithm for hierarchical collision detection, which allows an application to balance speed and quality of the collision detection. We p...
