Distributed virtual environments such as massive multi-player games require multiple servers to balance computational load. This paper investigates the architecture of a unified environment where the virtual online world is not partitioned according to rigid boundaries, but according to an adaptive paradigm. Since it is difficult to develop an optimal load balancing algorithm for a unified environment, this paper proposes an optimistic scheme that quickly converges. The cost of frequent migrations is reduced by following a push/push data exchange model. It analyzes the computational time costs of such a system and gives simulation results to gauge its performance. The simulation results confirm that this load balancing scheme is efficient and can support large numbers of clients.
