In the context of enterprise architecture management, complex diagrams proprietary software systems are often created. Working with these is not self-explanatory, as multiple layers information contained in overview. Changing design and style supported within hierarchical structure impossible outside original product. Separating content from provides a solution to this problem. The use scalable...

Interactive Drama is the ultimate challenge of digital entertainment. In this paper, from our seven year experience in Interactive Drama, we try to shape the history of the field and envision what will be (or should be) the future of this history. Two main directions in particular are stressed, because we feel that the success of Interactive Drama lies in these two directions. The first one con...

The composition of interactive multimedia titles is a challenge for all advanced multimedia authoring tools. When non-interactive titles were specified by aligning the media items on a temporal axis such as time lines or tracks, now interactive multimedia titles require a non-linear temporal model. Thus, authoring becomes more complex, and the structure of a title is more difficult to visualize...

Enterprise architecture management (EAM) is a holistic approach to tackle the complex Business and IT architecture. The transformation of an organization’s EA towards a strategyoriented system is a continuous task. Many stakeholders have to elaborate on various parts of the EA to reach the best decisions to shape the EA towards an optimized support of the organizations’ capabilities. Since the ...

In this paper, we describe our work in progress on the architecture of StateStream, a software model for the development of interaction behavior in realtime interactive systems. The StateStream design aims to support the design and development cycle of complex interaction techniques, object behavior and interaction scenarios and is currently targeted at concurrent and fluent direct manipulation...

In this paper we describe a collaborative environment created to support distributed evaluation of a complex system architecture. The approach couples an interactive architecture browser with collaborative walkthroughs of an evolving architectural representation. The collaborative architecture browser was created to facilitate involvement of project stakeholders from geographically dispersed, h...
