We present a new scheme of multiple scene graphs to accommodate the features of rendering engine and distributed systems. Based upon that, some other functions, e.g. block query, interactive editing, permission management, instance response, ＂redo＂ and ＂undo＂, are implemented to satisfy various requirements. At the same time, our design has compatibility to popular C/S architecture with good concurrent performance. Above all, it is convenient to be used for further development.
