A Poor Woman’s Interactive Remake of the “I Still Remember” Documentary with OpenGL
Making the “I Still Remember” documentary’s memory floating bubbles interactive with audience’s participation using a near day-to-day OpenGL (aimed at later enhancements with haptics). We describe a simple pro...

Teaching Physical Based Animation via OpenGL Slides
This work expands further our earlier poster presentation and integration of the OpenGL Slides Framework (OGLSF) – to make presentations with real-time animated graphics where each slide is a scene with tidget...

An LOD Control Interface for an OpenGL-based Softbody Simulation Framework
We summarize an interactive GLUI-based interface to the real-time softbody simulation using OpenGL. This interactivity focuses not only the user being able to drag 1D-, 2D-, and 3D-deformable elastic objects s...

A Real-Time Transfer and Adaptive Learning Approach for Game Agents in a Layered Architecture
Game agents(NPCs) should have the ability to react in cooperate, and have the ability to learn from mistakes and build up their own experience. In this paper, we describe a general approach for transfer learni...

A Procedural Planning System for Goal Oriented Agents in Games
This paper explores a procedural planning system for the control of game agents in real time. The planning methodology we present is based on offline goal-oriented behavioral design, and is implemented as a pr...

A multi-population genetic algorithm for robust and fast ellipse detection
This paper discusses a novel and effective technique for extracting multiple ellipses from an image, using a genetic algorithm with multiple populations (MPGA). MPGA evolves a number of subpopulations in paral...

Copying and Comparing: Problems and Solutions
In object oriented programming, it is sometimes necessary to copy objects and to compare them for equality or inequality. We discuss some of the issues involved in copying and comparing objects and we address ...

Identification of and solutions to shortcomings of LCL, a Larch/C interface specification language
We present some of the more significant shortcomings of LCL, a Larch/C specification language used to document the interfaces of modules written in ISO C. We illustrate inadequacies in the definition and insuf...

Sets, Records, and Unions
The memory of a computer has little formal structure. Typically, it consists of a large number of identical cells. On most modern computers, each cell contains eight bits and is called abyte. Some supercomputers ...

Additional Features
The features of Turing described in the previous ten chapters are adequate for almost all programs. There are some situations, however, in which additional features are useful. We can divide additional feature...

Defining New Types
A successful programming language must satisfy a number of requirements. First, it must enable us to use the computer efficiently. Second, it must provide a notation that enables us to describe clear and conci...

Input and Output
The basic tools for accomplishing input and output in Turing are the get and put statements. These statements suffice for small programs that need no more than get to read from the keyboard and put to display ...

First Concepts
A program is a text. Writing a program is like writing an instruction manual. After we have written a program or a manual, other people can read it. The important difference between a manual and a program is t...

Standard Types and Expressions
The concept of type is pervasive in computer science. It is not a particularly mysterious concept. In fact, we use types every day in normal conversation. Types enable us to refer to families of objects that have...

Procedures and Functions
Programming is difficult because programs are complex. Almost every line of a program contains important details, and it is easy to become overwhelmed by the mass of detail. It is difficult to write a program ...

Collections
Two elements of data organization are central to program design. The first element is the design of individual components. The second element, which dominates in all but the simplest programs, is the managemen...
