Distributed Interactive Simulation System (Feb 2000)
Two students, Sim Han Seah and Zhang Jianfeng, have designed a software platform called Distributed Interactive Simulation System, that lets software developers incorporate streaming video into interactive applications like IRC. Today, chat applications like IRC are mostly text-based. However, with this platform, it will allow chat rooms to be much more versatile, letting users "see" other chat members and illustrate their conversations with a presentation software like Microsoft PowerPoint."This platform can give chat applications more commercial appeal," said Associate Professor Lee Bu Sung, the supervisor of the project.
