چکیده
In this paper we introduce Clima Futura, a game about climate change. The primary aim of Clima Futura is to gain experience with the parameters affecting climate change and to give access to climate change related research in a playful manner. The concept for the game has been developed as a submission for the yearly Dutch contest for the communication of science. In this paper we will give an overview of the scientific background of the game, the overall design of the game, and our approach for realizing the game, deploying a modular architecture which allows for extending the game with minigames contributed by the community of players.

متن کاملSzilard Languages Associated to Parallel Communicating Grammar Systems
We associate Szilard and extended Szilard languages to parallel communicating grammar systems, starting from labels associated to productions of the components of the systems. We study families of such languages associated to various classes of parallel communicating grammar systems, comparing them to each other, to families of languages generated by regulated rewriting devices or by parallel c...
متن کاملA State Minimization Algorithm for Communicating State Machines With Arbitrary Data Space
A fundamental issue in the automated analysis of communicating systems is the efficient generation of the reachable state space. Since it is not possible to generate all the reachable states of a system with an infinite number of states, we need a way to combine sets of states. In this paper, we describe communicating state machines with data variables, which we use to specify concurrent system...

If we are to maintain public appreciation and support for our scientific enterprise, we need to pay more attention to translating the benefits and grandeur of science into the language of broader society. Both educators and journalists have a role to play in communicating the achievements of science, but scientists must recognize that we have a responsibility to increase the availability and sa...
