Shared scene mesh data synchronization

A method comprising:

• receiving object attribute messages based on object interaction instructions for interacting with the interactive objects in a mixed reality scene;
• determining whether a frame period has ended;
• responsive to determining that the frame period has not ended:
• receiving other object attribute messages;
• responsive to determining that the frame period has ended:
• estimating a number of processor cycles consumed per update of an interactive object;
• determining a current processor load;
• determining an object priority for a specified object;
• setting a limit on a number of interactive object updates during a frame period, the limit being based on at least one of the number of processor cycles, the current processor load, and the object priority;
• determining a set of most recent object attribute messages for the specified object in accordance with the limit on the number of interactive object updates during the frame period;
• and
• deleting in a receive path object attribute messages corresponding to the specified object that are not in set of most recent object attribute messages.

A computer program product, the computer program product being embodied on a computer-readable storage medium and configured so as when executed on a processor of a protocol endpoint entity within a shared scene architecture, to:

• receive object attribute messages based on object interaction instructions for interacting with the interactive objects in a shared scene;
• determine whether a frame period has ended;
• responsive to a determination that the frame period has not ended:
• receive other object attribute messages;
• responsive to a determination that the frame period has ended:
• estimate a number of processor cycles consumed per update of an interactive object;
• determine a current processor load;
• determine an object priority for a specified object;
• set a limit on a number of interactive object updates during a frame period, the limit being based on at least one of the number of processor cycles, the current processor load, and the object priority;
• determine a set of most recent object attribute messages for the specified object in accordance with the limit on the number of interactive object updates during the frame period;
• and
• delete in a receive path object attribute messages corresponding to the specified object that are not in set of most recent object attribute messages.
