Modeling synthetic characters which interact with objects in dynamic virtual worlds is important when we want the agents to act in an autonomous and non-preplanned way. Such inter...
This paper proposes to model and represent an object’s digital persona by means of a conceptual model that uses fragments of schemata that are termed data-DNA. The object may be...
In this paper, we introduce the concepts of "cooperative buildings" and "roomware" and place them in the context of the integrated design of real, physical, res...
Research in Interactive Narrative has developed new approaches to the behaviour of virtual actors, but has dedicated little attention to the physical behaviour of the environment ...
This paper introduces SCIVE, a Simulation Core for Intelligent Virtual Environments. SCIVE provides a Knowledge Representation Layer (KRL) as a central organizing struc...
