Abstract

Interactive, mobile online games have recently become popular thus receiving the attention of researchers. Mobile games represent a particularly interesting case because of the proliferation of smart personal devices and the increasing availability of high speed wireless access points. With this vision, we propose a holistic solution that enables a top quality online gaming experience regardless whether the player is wired, wireless, or even mobile. Main components of this solution are: (i) a synchronization mechanism based on an Internet server overlay that enables interactivity, fairness, and scalability, and (ii) a smart access point able to support efficient coexistence between elastic (download) and real-time (game) traffic.
