  • Post category:MPAI

In parts I and II of this series of posts, we have highlighted: The basic elements that enable operation of an M-Instance, especially Processes, Items, Actions and Data Type. In particular, Processes can take the shape of a User (a representative of a human in an M-Instance), a Device (to enable the connection of an M-Instance with the real world, called Universe), and a Service. The functional requirements of an initial list of Actions that enable a Process to do…

Introduction Many use the metaverse word with other people, but it is unlikely that they all mean the same. In general one can say that a metaverse instance is a rather complex communication and interaction environment with features, such as synchronous and persistent experiences and virtual reality features such as avatars that may or may not be controlled by humans or objects of the real world. MPAI Metaverse Model – MPAI-MMM – is the MPAI project developing technical documents –…
