NPSOFF: An object description language for supporting virtual world construction
نویسندگان
چکیده
The development of interesting virtual world systems requires the modeling of many different, usually complex, graphical objects. How these objects are represented in the system plays a major part in determining the capabilities of the system. We present an efficient, flexible and extensible object description language used in virtual world system development at the Naval Postgraduate School.

NPSGDL: An Object Oriented Graphics Description Language for Virtual World Application Support
Many virtual world applications today represent the cutting edge in real-time 3D interactive graphics. These applications must model many complex, often changing, graphical objects. These graphical objects must be modeled both visually and behaviorly. An application independent method for describing graphical objects is essential for rapid prototyping and development. This paper presents a simp...
