Abstract

In one aspect, one or more real-time data stream connections that deliver a set of real-time data streams to a given network node associated with a respective position in a virtual area (28) are determined based at least in part on bandwidth capabilities of the given network node. In another aspect, for each of one or more recipient network nodes (52, 54, 56, 64, 404) sharing a virtual area (28), a respective link over which to transmit a respective transmission set of one or more real-time data streams is determined. For each of the links, the respective link bandwidth is apportioned between one or more channels that are respectively allocated to the one or more real-time data streams in the respective transmission set.
