Playing it Safe: Approaching Science Safety Awareness through Computer Game-Based Training

Experimental Computer Science in Game Playing

This short article attempts to illustrate the importance of experimental computer science in the development of game-playing programs. While game playing is no longer one of the major thrusts of artificial intelligence research, it still remains one of the most visible. For many areas of artificial intelligence, games provide a convenient domain for demonstrating the impact of new research resu...

Improving Security Awareness and Training through Computer-based Training

Security awareness is a critical issue for all organisations that depend upon information technology. However, significant survey evidence suggests that the issue is often given inadequate attention in modern organisations, leading to problems through security incidents. This paper considers various means that can be used to instil greater awareness, and argues that the most effective method is...

Computer Game Playing

It seems that eve ry th i ng in game-playing (and possibly in all of AI) u l t imate ly comes down to Knowledge and search. This is rea l ly another case of a space/t ime tradeoff. All s t a te -space problems can be solved by searching, if t h e r e w e r e enough time to do a complete search of the p rob lem space. Also all problems can be solved by enough Knowledge, by merely having all pert...

A Game Playing System for Use in Computer Science Education

The MAPLE Game Playing System is a web application and website that allows students to design and program game playing agents using the Python programming language. The system provides a platform for assignments in introductory computer science courses and senior and graduate-level A.I. courses. The website allows users to upload, use, and share agents that play games such as the Prisoner’s Dil...
