چکیده
Online multiplayer gaming has emerged as a popular form of entertainment. the course of a multiplayer game, playerinteractions may result in interesting emergent narratives that go unnoticed. Afterthought is a system that monitors player activity, recognizes instances of story elements in gameplay and renders cinematic highlights of the story-oriented game play, allowing players to view these emergent narratives after completing their gameplay session. This paper describes Afterthought’s implementation as well as an empirical human-subjects evaluation of the effectiveness of the cinematics that it creates.

Storytelling can play a critical role in the success of modern video games. Unfortunately, it can often be quite difficult for storytellers to directly craft content for games, typically requiring them to work with programmers to implement story elements. This needlessly complicates the development process, straining scarce resources while potentially hampering creativity and story quality at t...

Introduction: Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) could potentially be useful for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and VMAT QA. The data density, high resolution, large active area, and efficiency of the MV EPID make it an attractive option. However, EPIDs were designed as imaging devices, not dosimeters, and as a result they do not inherently measure dose in ...
متن کاملLDA Experimental Data of Three-Poster Jet Impingement System
During its near-ground hovering phase a Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) aircraft creates a complex three-dimensional flow field between jet streams, the airframe surface and the ground. A proper understanding and numerical prediction of this flow is important in the design of such aircraft. In this paper an experimental facility, used to gather validation data suitable for testing C...
