The PRISM/PRISM++ approach consists in providing the users with a set of SQL-based Schema Modification Opera-tors (SMOs), which describe how the tables in the old schema are modified into those in the new schema.

For MMOGs with higher realtime requirements and/or a smaller number of customers willing to pay, peer-to-peer networking seems to be a

First, I would like to thank to Dimka Karastoyanova and Mariano Cilia for all the fruitful discussions, their guidance and support through the course of this project.
