Abstract
Distributed simulations that support a massive number of users typically divide the virtual world into zones that are managed by separate servers to evenly distribute resources and achieve scalability. However, such zoning restricts cross-zonal interactions and exposes the division of the world to the participating parties. Problems such as crowding one zone among others defeats the very purpose of interest management and makes geographic partitioning inefficient for modeling interactions. In this work, we have designed and implemented a visibility-driven approach to make the partitioning transparent to users. The effectiveness of this distributed architecture is tested through a prototype implementation. We also introduce a novel idea to dynamic load balancing that can be achieved in real-time without modifying the communication architecture. By increasing the granularity of the partitioning and providing a layered approach to zoning, transient crowding can be handled by adoptively dispersing parts of the crowded zone to adjacent servers.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
