Abstract :
The interoperability between heterogeneous distributed virtual environments is one of the main problem virtual reality will have to face in the very near future. This article presents the main concepts we propose in NOVA (Networked Open Virtual Environment). These concepts are presented as a set of paradigms based on the semantics of a virtual world and its virtual entities
