Distributed Spatial Database for use with 3D Graphics Engines

Abstract:- Many modern applications employ a spatial database system to perform management of the large amount of spatial or non linear data. These systems are employed in both real-time and non-real time applications, such as GPS/GIS systems, video games, and scientific databases. Most of these applications are three dimensional, but some can be extended to higher dimensions. The goal is to distribute the responsibilities of a real time three dimensional game server over multiple servers. By distributing the game server we can split the responsibilities of a single server among many servers. This will allow for larger world spaces, with more entities. An entity could be any dynamic object in the three dimension world space. The goal is to make it possible for a series of desktop computers with broadband service to be able to host massive on-line games
