1. A method comprising: determining a first area of a region in a virtual universe, the first area comprising one or more topology objects and one or more avatars, wherein a first computing resource processes data for presenting the first area, and wherein the first computing resource processes session data for controlling the one or more avatars in the first area; determining a second area of the region, wherein the second area is similar in topology to the first area, wherein a second computing resource processes data for presenting the second area; moving the one or more avatars from the first area to the second area; transferring the session data for controlling the one or more avatars from the first computing resource to the second computing resource; and reducing usage of the first computing resource to process the data for presenting the first area.
