The Virtual Microscope is being designed as an integrated
computer hardware and software system that generates a highly
realistic digital simulation of analog, mechanical light microscopy.
We present our work over the past year in meeting the challenges in
building such a system. The enhancements we made are discussed, as
well as the planned future improvements. Performance results are
provided that show that the system scales well, so that many clients can
be adequately serviced by an appropriately configured data server.
