  • Abstract
    In this paper a novel approach to provide satisfactory multiplayer gaming quality in mobile environment is presented. The paper has two contributions: (i) evaluation of the delay characteristics of multiplayer games in mobile environment based on extensive measurements to verify whether HSDPA access can provide a satisfactory gaming quality; (ii) improving the gaming quality with new server update time optimization algorithms taking advantage of the statistical delay characteristics.
