Abstract:
Within the discourse on contemporary, post-Taylorist working life, production games and simulations are widely accepted as tools to facilitate learning and communication in organizations. We suggest that research programs dealing with production games can be seen as lying between two typical positions. Insiders — any significant group that proposes that simulations are useful — argue that they are fair representations of work practices, and that they hold specific qualities. Outsiders — researchers seeking to understand how simulations work in action — reject these kinds of 3.. priori statements, claiming that it is not meaningful to express any of the qualities of simulations prior to the simulation situation without succumbing to mythologizing simulations. This paper presents a study, undertaken from an outsider perspective, of a simulation game used in Sweden. We suggest that simulation games are complex social interactions carrying a considerable, albeit not yet fully exploited, potential for learning. The outline of the simulation favored the use of recently developed shop floor practices over old practices, and the explanation for the success of the new practices was often interpreted in terms of technical aspects of the production process. Observations and interviews indicate that research from an insider perspective tends to underestimate the emergent character of the simulations and how the game can be a vehicle for discipline and the creation of dysfunctional patterns in workgroups as well as learning. In summary, the outsider perspective could, as in this study, provide alternative perspectives on simulations, providing new insights and ideas, for research as well as practice.

Abstract:
This study combines the perspective of students ( n = 137) and sales instructors ( n = 248). It compares how well selling and sales management simulation games, case discussions, and traditional lectures are perceived to conform to the seven principles for good practice in undergraduate education. The study further compares each method’s performance on perceived learning outcomes. Differences between instructors who adopted a simulation game and nonadopters are investigated. Finally, we investigate the reasons why some instructors adopt and others choose not to adopt simulation games for their selling and sales management classes. We find that students consider simulation games more fun, but less useful than lectures, and about equally useful as case discussion. Computerized simulation games are less frequently used in sales education than in other business disciplines. The perceived lack of suitable games is the main reason why instructors do not adopt simulation games for sales education. Contrary to earlier speculation, prior professional work experience of the instructor is unrelated to simulation game adoption, and years of teaching experience is positively related to the use of simulation games.

Abstract:
Games use the same base technology and design strategy as do simulations, but add a few items to the mixture. Understanding this gives ‘new’ (read borrowed) tools for game creation and testing. The idea that simulations are implementations of a model, for instance, leads to a focus on the model rather than the code when designing a game. Similarly, the verification/validation pair used in simulations can be extended by adding playtesting for games, thus giving an educational game (for example) viable, demonstrable educational characteristics as well as playable (and thus engaging and motivating) characteristics. Productive work on improving games for specific purposes (serious games) can be advanced if the authors can agree on a common terminology and concept set (Shaw & Gaines, 1989), and if games can be seen as a valuable extension of a simulation that has specific characteristics that make them useful in specific circumstances. The idea of ‘fun’ is often thought of as the enemy of ‘learning’ in educational literature, and this needs to change if progress on serious and educational games is to be made. This paper will describe the hierarchy of computer simulation objects within which ludic simulations can be understood.

Abstract:
This article discusses the metaphor-simulation paradox in the study of computer games. It is derived from three observations. Firstly, often when authors use the concept of metaphor with regard to games they use it in conceptual and textual vicinity to the concept of simulation. Secondly, the concept of metaphor is often applied to signify seemingly abstract games in opposition to mimetic simulations. Both observations can be made within an artgame discourse of the study of computer games as well as within the more general discourse of the study of computer games. Thirdly, however, the definitions for simulation as well as for metaphor are strikingly similar which culminates in the metaphor-simulation paradox i.e. the notions of metaphor and simulation are not distinct enough in order to make the distinctions which are usually made with these notions with regard to computer games. In an attempt to reconcile both notions with regard to computer games this article will make three suggestions. Observing that simulations are often called metaphors with regard to their degree of reduction or abstraction the first suggestion argues that simulations are essentially synecdochic and hence metaphoric when following a broad notion of metaphor. Based on the assumption that simulation is not a matter of similarity the second suggestion proposes to distinguish between a first order simulation and a second order simulation which can then be considered metaphoric. As a third and final suggestion the author offers to consider simulation and metaphor as related via the notion of the model. Simulations are based on models and metaphors provide models such that one can speak of metaphor based simulations.

Abstract:
Oiligarchy (Pedercini (Molleindustria), 2008) and Phone Story (Pedercini (Molleindustria) & Yes Lab, 2011) are two apparently simple games that integrate game-based and simulational components in a wider rhetorical discourse. It is reductive to consider these satires as simple “gamified” pieces: their use of simulations as well as ludic elements is functional to a political rhetoric that cannot be reduced to mindless escapism. Oiligarchy is a piece raising awareness on the dependency of Western societies on oil. It simulates oil-extraction using mathematical models to describe the decline of production rates; it also employs game mechanics to confute the player's initial assumptions and to propose a persuasive message. Phone Story is a playable satire of Apple advertising, simulating the “identity correction” genre adopted by political activists. This piece also features ludic mechanics to create a complex discourse enhancing its satirical effectiveness. These examples show the potentialities of an overlapping between simulation, playful elements and rhetorical persuasion - suggesting their mutual compatibility and stressing the need for further research in this area.

Abstract:
The paper discusses if it is possible and appropriate to use simulations (simulation games) and traditional games in the process of education. It is stressed that the terms "game" and "simulation" can and should be taken in a broader sense, although they are chiefly investigated herein as video-computer games and simulations. Any activity combining the properties of game (competition, rules, players) and the properties of simulation (i.e. operational presentation of reality) should be understood as simulation games, where role-play constitutes their essence and basis. In those games the student assumes a new identity, identifies himself with another personality and responds similarly. Game rules are basic and most important conditions for its existence, accomplishment and goal achievement. Games and simulations make possible for a student to acquire experience and practice i.e. to do exercises in nearly similar or identical life situations, to develop cognitive and psycho-motor abilities and skills, to acquire knowledge, to develop, create and change attitudes and value criteria, and to develop perception of other people?s feelings and attitudes. It is obligatory for the teacher to conduct preparations to use and apply simulation games in the process of teaching.

Abstract:
Wind is a natural phenomenon that interacts with the majority of physical objects to some extent. Yet, in games this is often neglected. This is largely due to the complexity of the physics behind wind, in relation to the impact that it may have on the game experience. Adding to the complexity of wind is the fact that many modern games are networked, meaning multiple players need to share a consistent world view. Wind is inherently chaotic in nature, which is a problem for networked games that heavily favors deterministic behavior. In this thesis we will summarize the current state of the art, in games and briefly other areas. With this knowledge we push forward to improve on the existing solutions. Due to computational limitations of a real time game, we have divided up the problem into two steps. First, we run the complex computational calculations of the wind in a certain scenario in an offline setting, storing the result. Next, when running the game, we utilize the pre-computed wind scenario to let the players experience realistic wind at a low computational cost. We also investigate how to network the wind in a feasible way. The result of the project shows that doing offline computation of wind, by running physical simulations is a feasible solution for adding wind in a game setting.

Abstract:
This thesis was developed as an assignment from Ludosity Interactive where the goal was to develop a copy of the Xbox Live Indie Games-marketplace from the Xbox 360. Ludosity Interactive had a necessity to easily test a game's attractiveness to potential customers using testing people from outside the company in a simulated Xbox Live Indie Games test environment; excluding this developed system there is no other way to do such an analysis without actually releasing the game on the Xbox Live Indie Games marketplace and then analyze the resulting sales from the product. The finished system had to be similar to the original system to the degree that a user could see past the interface itself and use the system just as he/she would have used the real marketplace. It also had to be easy to change and add games to the system so that Ludosity Interactive easily could show the games and the data that they deemed interesting for their tests. The final product was developed using C#, XNA and XML together with an Agileinspired development method in combination with Pivotal Tracker. This report describes how this product was developed.
Detta examensarbete utfördes som uppdrag åt Ludosity Interactive där målet var att utveckla en kopia av Xbox Live Indie Games-marknadsplatsens gränssnittet från Xbox 360:n. Ludosity Interactive hade ett behov av att enkelt kunna testa ett spels attraktionskraft hos potentiella kunder med hjälp av utomstående testpersoner i en simulerad testmiljö; utöver detta systemet finns det inget sätt att kunna göra en sådan analys utan att släppa produkten på Xbox Live Indie Games-marknaden och sedan analysera försäljningen av produkten. Det färdiga systemet var tvunget att vara såpass snarlikt originalförlagan att en användare skulle kunna förbi se själva gränssnittet och använda det precis som de använder den riktiga marknadsplatsen. Det skulle också vara enkelt att kunna förändra och lägga spel i systemet så att som Ludosity Interactive lätt kan visa de spelen och den data de anser intressant för sina tester. Den färdiga produkten utvecklades med hjälp av C#, XNA och XML samt en Agile-inspirerad utvecklingsmetod i kombination med Pivotal Tracker. Denna rapport beskriver hur den produkten definierades och utvecklades.

Abstract:
The idea of creating agents that automatically learn to play games through experience has been one of the major goals for game researchers. Simulation-based search and reinforcement learning have been two of the most active areas of research tackling this problem. One of the main challenges that links both areas is how to acquire domain knowledge that can. be effectively integrated into simulation-based search algorithms. In this thesis we address this challenge in several ways. First, we use temporal difference learning to find value functions in the form of weighted piece counters and N-tuple systems to play the game of Othello. Next, we present an algorithm that combines TD learning with coevolution to learn value functions of higher quality. These learned value functions Serve as basis to enhance the performance of Monte Carlo Tree Search by incorporating them in the tree and default policies. Finally, we conduct an extensive empirical analysis of Monte Carlo Tree Search by comparing it against other simulation-based and minimax search algorithms.

Abstract:
This thesis work presents a new algorithm for simulating fluid based on the Navier-Stokes equations. The algorithm is designed for cell based sandbox games where interactivity and performance are the main priorities. The algorithm enforces mass conservation conservatively instead of enforcing a divergence free velocity field. A global scale pressure model that simulates hydrostatic pressure is used where the pressure propagates between neighboring cells. A prefix sum algorithm is used to only compute work areas that contain fluid.

Esta tese é focada em jogos sérios que simulam situações realistas. O objetivo destes jogos vai além do mero entretenimento para outras áreas, tais como treinamento, por exemplo. Como algumas áreas da Ciência da Computação já fornecem métodos e ferramentas para a simulação de situações realistas, é altamente desejável que possamos usá-los neste tipo de jogos sérios. Esta tese introduz um novo framework no qual técnicas de simulação oriundas de diferentes áreas, tais como modelagem e simulação, sistemas de informação geográfica e sistemas multi-agentes, podem ser integradas em uma arquitetura de jogos sérios. A solução proposta resultou na concepção de um novo paradigma para modelagem de simulações chamado de simulação orientada a processos, que combina aspectos diferentes dos paradigmas mais tradicionais de simulação orientada a objetos e simulação orientada a agentes. A ideia principal da simulação orientada a processos é a separação entre o estado e o comportamento das entidades envolvidas na simulação. Esta característica favorece a modularização de comportamentos complexos e a integração em uma única simulação de diferentes modelos de simulação que interferem entre si. Baseado no paradigma de simulação orientada a processos, foi desenvolvida uma extensão do conhecido formalismo de simulações DEVS, chamada Process-DEVS, para a modelagem de simulações baseadas em eventos discretos. Alguns formalismos, tais como workflows e processos em espaços celulares, foram mapeados para o Process-DEVS e testados na implementação de dois sistemas: um jogo de treinamento e um sistema de planejamento de contingência, ambos projetados para a indústria de gás e petróleo.
This thesis focuses on serious games that simulate realistic situations. The objectives of such games go beyond mere entertainment to fields such as training, for example. Since other areas of Computer Science provide methods and tools for simulating and reasoning about real situations, it is highly desirable to use them in this kind of serious games. This thesis introduces a new framework on which simulation techniques from different areas, such as modeling and simulation, geographic information systems and multi-agent systems, can be integrated into a serious game architecture. The proposed solution resulted in the conception of a novel simulation modeling paradigm, named process-oriented simulation (POS), which combines different aspects of the more traditional object-oriented simulation (OOS) and agent-oriented simulation (AOS) paradigms. The main idea of POS is the separation between state and behavior of the entities involved in the simulation. This characteristic favours the modularization of complex behaviors and the integration of different and interfering simulation models into a single simulation. Based on the POS paradigm, a discrete-event simulation formalism named Process-DEVS was developed as an extension of the well-known DEVS simulation formalism. Some formalisms, such as workflows and cell space processes, were mapped to Process-DEVS and tested in the implementation of two systems: an emergency training game and a contingency planning system, both designed for the oil and gas industry.

Abstract:
Currently, games with rich environments allowing a wide range of possible interactions and supporting a large number of physical simulations make use of a large number of scripts and bespoke physical simulations, adapted to fit the needs of the game. This thesis proposes a methodology that can be used to tie together various different physical simulations, both off-the-shelf and bespoke, such as rigid body physics, electrical and magnetic simulations to give something greater than the sum of the individual parts. We present a notation for designing the overall physical simulation and a means for the different parts to interact. Experiments using an implementation of the methodology containing electricity, rigid body simulation, magnetics (including electro-magnetics), buoyancy and sound show that it is possible to model everyday objects such an electric motor or a doorbell. These object work ‘as expected’, without the need for special scripts and new, originally unexpected, interactions are possible without further modification of the experiment setup.

Abstract:
This article discusses the effects of simulation games in the education of students and the skills and abilities that they obtained after participating in discipline-based on the online or outline simulation programs. These applications may be individual or components software of e-learning platforms. Games-based learning has captured the interest of educationalists and industrialists who seek to exploit the characteristics of computer games as they are perceived by some to be a potentially effective approach for teaching and learning. The type of the activity to the students in enhancing cooperation and constructing higher responsibility is games. A simple game can be able to improve cooperation and social ability of the member; to practice communication; and to improve emotional management. One more this simulation games can development leadership style of the participants. This research shows a link between the effects of simulation programs and performance of the simulation game. Simulating various aspects of professional environment and real industrial processes, allows to train students apply the obtained theoretical knowledge and solve problems emerging in their professional activity. For the design of educational games, the results suggest that the challenge of the game should be able to keep up with the learners growing abilities and learning in order to endorse continued learning in game-based learning environments. The link between students developmental (formative) assessment opportunities over the course of the simulation, explaining assessment criteria and ways that students can improve their performance, requiring students to undertake reflection on their learning and outcomes, and ensuring that higher order thinking skills are engaged.

Abstract:
User motivation and engagement while playing serious games remains challenging. Advances location-based technology has brought new opportunities for game-based, context-regulated experiences. Much effort has been made to model and manage the user context data, devices, and pervasive spaces, in order to enhance user experience. Research indicates that avatars have potential beyond representing the player on screen and interacting with the digital world. The interaction between an avatar and a player contributes to higher user engagement and a more pervasive experience. This article will look at how Simulation Games used for educational purposes can profit from avatars. The article is outlined as followed: it first analyses the potential avatars have on increasing player motivation and game enjoyment as well as on the player behaviour within different game genres. In a second step, we analyse and identify different types of simulation games, which mostly do not integrate an avatar. Based upon the outcome of the first part, we transfer the gained knowledge about avatars in avatar-focused games to simulation-based games with an educational focus on engineering, in order to increase player engagement towards learning games.

Abstract:
Use of visual methods plays a significant role in learning. ICT allow us to create electronic educational resources in a new format and with new opportunities. The study of their didactic possibilities, forms and methods of their application is a topical issue. Simulation, virtualization, gamification requires new knowledge about their application, and therefore, the problem of training future teachers to use them is an urgent and important part of training. In this article modern achievements in the use of serious games in education were investigated and analyzed, the possibilities of using virtual worlds in education were considered, the recommendations for the practical training of future teachers to use them were developed. In practice, the effectiveness of the use of virtual tools in education has been tested. A pedagogical experiment has been launched to identify the effectiveness of gamification in the realities of education in Ukraine.

Abstract:
At natural gas pipeline compressor stations, methane emissions from compressor and engine crankcases are often vented directly into the atmosphere. There may be advantages to capturing these emissions and using them to offset fuel usage and / or decrease the overall carbon footprint of such a typical compressor station. This study evaluates the feasibility of directing such captured emissions into the intake of the compressor engine and subsequently combusting the methane emissions into carbon dioxide and water. Although seemingly an obvious or trivial solution, there are in fact several challenges and issues that must be considered to evaluate if such a scheme is a reasonable course of action for compressor station methane emissions reduction. The study relies on both extensive literature review and model-based engine simulations to determine the feasibility of rebreathing crankcase gases in pursuit of reducing compressor station methane emissions. The conclusions of the study are limited to the crankcase vent rebreathing into the air intake of large bore, natural gas, 2-stroke engines. The model-based engine simulations require detailed physical geometry of the subject engines as well as knowledge of basic engine operating parameters (e.g., fuel flow, air flow, and fuel composition). The simulation is based on the experimental facility located at Colorado State University, which is a 4-cylinder Cooper-Bessemer GMV-4. One of the important parameters needing to be known is the gas composition of both compressor and engine crankcases. It is extremely difficult to determine the composition of the engine crankcase gases, since the composition depends on a large variety of parameters. For this study, the gases from the compressor crankcase are modeled as methane (i.e., pipeline gas), and the gases from the engine crankcase are modeled as products of combustion with two different levels methane concentration (1500 ppm and 3000 ppm). A sensitivity analysis is performed, and the observed pressure traces from the model-based engine simulation show that the engine performance is not affected by the addition of rebreathed gases. This insensitivity mainly results from the very small rebreathed flow rates compared to the air intake, and the adjustments made on engine parameters, boost pressure and fuel injection rate, to keep trapped equivalence ratio (TER) and the energy delivery rate the same.

Abstract:
This project develops capability for future studies on the effects of nontraditional messages in dynamic message signs on improving driver safety and compliance and avoiding distractions. An online survey and a driving simulation game were designed, and a pilot run was conducted with a small number of students in the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign. Survey responses and simulation data were analyzed to reveal preliminary findings on notable effectiveness across different types of messages (e.g., humorous, emotionless, negative). The pilot study also provides guidelines and recommendations for running a large-scale survey and simulation game in the future.
