1 | We analyze here our Technology Convergence Roadmap in three subsequent temporal/vertical slices, pointing out horizontal synergies and leverages for each technology threshold. |
2 | We start with the current/1997 technology slice including DIS 2.x and Web'97, and we describe the ongoing work by the Naval Postgraduate School at Monterey, CA on Java/VRML based DIS which provides horizontal integration of the current technologies in both domains. |
3 | We also summarize our related work at NPAC on televirtual environments and we set the scene for the next Web technology threshold based on new advanced Java Frameworks. |
