Abstract
The obvious trend of the application on Internet is not only data transferring or providing document browsing, but also providing services and streaming rich media including 3D scenes. In this paper we present a streaming framework for Internet services which is connection saving and responsive to the status of clients. For a scene containing several progressive meshes, our framework refines objects according to their visual importance selectively. Instead of creating streaming connection for each object, our framework assembles a stream containing an interlaced refinement sequence in run-time according to the level-of-detail diagnostics of clients. Exploiting this technology it makes a server able to serve as many clients as possible. It is quite essential for the development of Internet services.
