Mobile gaming and 3D video systems: next generation services for wireless networks

毫无疑问，对于普通消费者来说，移动的计算将很快取代基于PC的计算。目前，世界上有一半以上的人口使用手机或其他移动的设备，使用移动的手机浏览互联网的人数多于个人电脑，普通人更有可能使用手持设备而不是个人电脑来进行各种应用。随着我们从传统的以设备为中心的时代（PC）向新的以用户为中心的时代（普适、环境和移动的计算）转变，这是一种自然的演变。移动的设备现在配备了集成的视频摄像头、3D硬件加速器、快速CPU、大内存、蓝牙和WiFi。随着我们从3G网络转向4G网络，无线网络也在以更多的带宽和功能向前发展。与此同时，我们正在目睹新媒体大众消费的趋势。下一代应用程序（如游戏、3D虚拟/社交环境和3D视频）显著增加。据估计

There is no doubt that mobile computing will soon replace PC-based computing for the average consumer. Already, more than half of the world population uses cell phones or other mobile devices, more mobile phones are used to browse the Internet than PCs, and the average person is more likely to use a handheld device than a PC for a variety of applications. This is a natural evolution as we move from the traditional device-centric era (PC) to a new user-centric era (pervasive, ambient, and mobile computing). Mobile devices now come with integrated video cameras, 3D hardware accelerators, fast CPUs, large memory, BlueTooth and WiFi. Wireless networks are also advancing with more bandwidth and features as we move from 3G to 4G networks. At the same time, we are witnessing a trend towards the mass consumption of new media. There is a significant rise in next generation applications such as gaming, 3D Virtual/Social Environments, and 3D video. It is estimated
