Abstract :
A design methodology for task-oriented virtual world applications is proposed. An object-oriented approach is used for developing an agent (task) model, a problem domain data model, and an interaction domain model. These models are under the control of a particular component, namely the virtual world control mechanism. The introduced object hierarchy supports the construction of a design base with reusable objects, as well as the integration of further design knowledge, such as help concepts
