(Freepick image) The global efforts to make the presence of humans less impacting on the Earth that hosts us should include Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAV). Still far away is the moment, however, when it will be possible to all to ask a CAV in plain language to take us to a destination basically executing the functions that we perform when we are behind the wheel. One way to accelerate the coming of that moment is to develop standard for components…

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…

14 June, Geneva. The 33rd MPAI General Assembly approves the Call for Technologies and 3 supporting documents on “MPAI Metaverse Model (MPAI-MMM) – Architecture”. An online presentation will be made on 23 June at 08 and 15 UTC. Register for the first (https://tinyurl.com/3mbd9vru) and for the second (https://tinyurl.com/rew3ykzc) presentation. MPAI has already published two Technical Reports on Functionalities and Functionality Profiles of the MPAI Metaverse Model. MPAI is now kicking off an ambitious plan to develop a Technical Specification of…

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 –…
