Building multi-user interactive multimedia environments at Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories (MERL) is a highly interdisciplinary activity, which involves the efforts of more than a dozen members of the laboratory. This report describes this research at three levels. At the bottom, supporting everything, are high-speed networks. On top of networks, we have built a piece of "middleware" called Spline. Finally, Diamond Park is an experimental environment we are building using Spline.
