Three Elemental Game Progress Patterns
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is concerned with three elemental game progress patterns. It is found that each of the three games in 2010 FIFA World Cup, Group E is a combination of the elemental progress patterns. It is confirmed that the analysed Soccer and Chess games are a combination of the elemental game progress patterns. It is suggested that this finding is universal for all games. Time history of information of game outcome obtained by data analyses and existing models suggests that for neutral observers a “balanced game” is frustrating, a “one-sided game” is boring, and a “seesaw game” is exciting.

Evolutionary pattern formation in non-linear imaging systems with feedback: “Self-controlled growth”, “Coherent shrinkage” and “Eternal life in a bounded space”
Imaging systems with feedback are, generally, non-linear dynamic systems, which exhibit evolutionary pattern formation. In the paper, results of experimental investigation of pattern formation in several discrete models of such systems inspired by the famous mathematical “Game of Life” are presented and a number of new amazing phenomena in the evolutionary pattern formation in the models are re...
متن کاملGAME OF COORDINATION FOR BACTERIAL PATTERN FORMATION: A FINITE AUTOMATA MODELLING
In this paper, we use game theory to describe the emergence of self-organization and consequent pattern formation through communicative cooperation in Bacillus subtilis colonies. The emergence of cooperative regime is modelled as an n-player Assurance game, with the bacterial colonies as individual players. The game is played iteratively through cooperative communication, and mediated by exchan...
متن کاملElements of Social Action: A Micro- Analytic Approach to the Study of Collaborative Behavior in Digital Games
In this paper we articulate an empirical approach to the study of social action in digitallymediated contexts. Our approach extends Carl Couch’s theory of cooperative action, which is based on a set of “elements of sociation”: acknowledged attentiveness, mutual responsiveness, congruent functional identities, shared focus, and social objective. Three additional elements of sociation, adapted fr...
متن کاملNarrative Serious Game Mechanics (NSGM) - Insights into the Narrative-Pedagogical Mechanism
Narratives are used to construct and deconstruct the time and space of events. In games, as in real life, narratives add layers of meaning and engage players by enhancing or clarifying content. From an educational perspective, narratives are a semiotic conduit for evoking critical thinking skills and promoting knowledge discovery/acquisition. While narrative is central to Serious Games (SG), th...
متن کاملMo2TiAlC2: A new ordered layered ternary carbide
Herein we report on the synthesis of a new layered ternary carbide, viz. Mo2TiAlC2, that was synthesized by heating an elemental mixture at 1600 oC for 4 h under Ar flow. Its lattice parameters were calculated via Rietveld analysis of powder Xray diffraction patterns to be 2.997 Å and 18.661 Å. High-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy further showed that this phase is ordered, ...
