Summary:In this paper a cloud-based TV-centric gaming architecture is proposed, enabling the creation of games played amongst friends seated in geographically separated living rooms. In each living room a television is used as a public game display and mobile devices are used as game controllers. An example of a multi-player board game using the proposed architecture was developed and validated using tests measuring the communication performance between server and client.
