Abstract

Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) and the broad use of communication networks provide
the users with realistic virtual environments. However these environments need and a pioneer
application such as distance learning. In order to realize suitable educational virtual environments
the desired functionality should be collected, a general architecture should be specified and a
suitable communication protocol between the components of the system should be designed. In this
paper we present the design rationale for such a communication protocol.
