A survey of peer-to-peer overlay approaches for networked virtual environments
This paper identifies and analyzes the key design approaches that have been proposed over the last decade to construct a peer-to-peer (P2P) networked virtual environment (NVE) systems. We discuss each approach, their advantages and drawbacks, and examine several representative P2P-based NVE systems based on the presented approaches, thus providing the background and literature review of P2P NVEs.
