Abstract
Collaborative virtual environment (CVE) concepts have been used in many systems. The architectures available today provide support for a number of users but they fail if too many users are together in a small "space" in the virtual world. This paper introduces VELVET, an adaptive hybrid architecture which allows a greater number of users to interact through a CVE. VELVET introduces a novel adaptive area of interest management, which supports heterogeneity amongst the various participants.
