چکیده

There are many similarities between prototyping for traditional computer games and prototyping for other interactive systems, for example, applications for the work place. In most cases, pen and paper are used to initially test design ideas and feasibility. However, in audio games pen and paper can be rather useless for sketching the user experience of sound. In this paper, we argue that conventional lo-fi prototyping techniques are less appropriate for audio game design and take a look at existing models of game design processes. In this course, we identify and describe a major challenge in prototyping audio games, which we named “Change of Modality”.

Application of the Extreme Learning Machine for Modeling the Bead Geometry in Gas Metal Arc Welding Process

Rapid prototyping (RP) methods are used for production easily and quickly of a scale model of a physical part or assembly. Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is a widespread process used for rapid prototyping of metallic parts. In this process, in order to obtain a desired welding geometry, it is very important to predict the weld bead geometry based on the input process parameters, which are voltage...

Rapid Prototyping of Location-Based Games with the Multi-User Publishing Environment Application Platform

Location-Based Applications (LBA) react and adapt to changes in the environment of a user. Building LBAs, however, is a time consuming task, and a lot of effort needs to be put to the infrastructure supporting the development process. In this paper, a framework for rapid prototyping of location-based games (and applications) with the Multi-User Publishing Environment (MUPE) application platform...
