Responsiveness is the time taken for the system to register and respond to a user event. Delaney - Presence 2007

Fidelity is the degree to which the virtual representations are similar to their real-world representations. Delaney - Presence 2007 [[1]]


DIA are effectively real-time distributed systems.

Unlike other distributed systems, however, they can trade consistency for responsiveness and fidelity.
