<span lang="en-GB" style="border:1pt none windowtext;font-size:11pt;margin:0px">Metaverse, a reality-virtuality continuum, is blending physical and digital worlds, creating theoretically unlimited virtual environments with geographically distributed end-users
who interact using digital avatars and experience heterogenous activities in real-time. The immersive experience in Metaverse is revolutionizing various industries, paving the way for the realization of virtual remote environments, in turn enabling real-time
interactions amongst geographically distributed users around the globe. The realization of the Metaverse is facilitated by the convergence of various technologies, including image processing and computer vision to create the virtual environment inside the
Metaverse. The network protocols, and edge computing techniques, on the other hand, enable a real-time immersive experience using dedicated network paths and proximate computations from outside; thus, certainly signifying the Metaverse reliance on pervasive
network access and efficient computing technique. However, traditional networking solutions, and edge computing techniques—in the context of enabling dedicated network paths for seamless multimedia communication, computations offloading and execution—are incapable
of delivering the real-time experience owing to considerable latency incurred by the in-efficient network protocol design, and limited edge computing capabilities.</span><span lang="en-GB" style="font-size:11pt;margin:0px;color:rgb(33, 33, 33) !important"> </span></p>
