One of the key areas for the application of Artificial Intelligence to the game domain is in the design of challenging artificial opponents for human players. Complex simulations such as historical wargames can be seen as natural extensions of classical games where AI techniques such as planning or learning have already proved powerful. Yet the parallel nature of more recent games introduce new...

Historical perspective refers to understanding a subject in light of its earliest phases and subsequent evolution. 11Jis perspective differs from his.ory because its object is to sharpen one's vision of the present, not the past. When historical perspective is overlooked in social research, researchers may draw misleading conclusions. Historical perspective expands research horizons by encourag...

Detection and attribution (D&A) simulations were important components of CMIP5 and underpinned the climate change detection and attribution assessments of the Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The primary goals of the Detection and Attribution Model Intercomparison Project (DAMIP) are to facilitate improved estimation of the contributions of anthropogenic...

Computer-aided control system design (CACSD) encompasses a broad range of methods, tools and technologies for system modelling, control system synthesis and tuning, dynamic system analysis and simulation, as well as validation and verification. The domain of CACSD enlarged progressively over decades from simple collections of algorithms and programs for control system analysis and synthesis, to...

Ubicomp developers are increasingly borrowing from other disciplines, such as anthropology and creative design, to inform their design process. In this paper, we demonstrate that the discipline of history similarly has much to offer ubicomp research. Specifically, we describe a historicallygrounded approach to designing ubicomp systems and applications for the home. We present findings from a s...

Employing my research and practical experience in the field of educational psychology, with a specialty in instructional design and technology, I would like to reflect on the theoretical foundations of instructional design. My purpose is to show the growth of the field through theories associated with learning psychology and educational technology. Both human psychology and technology are the m...
