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 statemen

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 definit

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 studen

This study combines the perspective of students ( n = 137) and sales instructors ( n = 248).

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

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 motivatin

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

We present a modular framework targeted at that environment, which is designed to enable incremental development and exploration of dialogue concepts. We des

The challenges that formal methods involve in the Boolean setting are carried over, and in fact increase, in the presence of multi-valued systems and logics.

Abstract:

Historical simulation games such as the Civilization, Total War and Europa Universalis franchises serve, formally and informally, as powerful methods of learning history. While extant scholarship has focused on the connections to history, pedagogy and procedural rhetoric, little work has been done to examine the subsystems embedded in the interface and algorithmic components of more complex simulations, such as those present in Europa Universalis ‐ an analysis which is necessary to assess the complex enframing and algorithmic argumentation these games present. This article uses procedural rhet

Abstract:

105 students' attitudes toward use of computerized simulation games in teaching an introductory course in money, banking, and financial institutions were assessed. Responses indicate that most students favored use of computer-simulation games method of instruction in this course. They also thought that students majoring in finance should take at least one finance course which used computerized simulation games.

Abstract:

That researchers in the field of computer games usually find it is difficult to simulate the motion of actual 3D model trees lies in the fact that the tree model itself has very complicated structure, and many sophisticated factors need to be considered during the simulation. Though there are some works on simulating 3D tree and its motion, few of them are used in computer games due to the high demand for real-time in computer games. In this paper, an approach of animating trees in computer games based on a novel tree model representation—Ball B-Spline Curves (BBSCs) are proposed. By taking ad

Abstract:

Background. The use of simulation games for complex systems analysis and design has been acknowledged about 50 years ago. However, articles do not combine all salient factors for successful simulation games, and often stem from a clear view of one particular field of science only. With combining multiple disciplines, connect analysis and design as well as research and practice, we provide deep insights in design and use of simulation games. Aim. This article analyzes the design and evaluation process of a variety of game-based projects and activities, using existing scientific concepts and app

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Introduction: Spatial quotient and intelligence quotient are attributes of personality and follow the theory of use disuse atrophy. Thus, any attribute can be enhanced by exercising it. In India, there is a dearth of studies exploring the influence of gaming on skills like spatial quotient and intelligence quotient. Aims: The present study implies to find the relationship of different genres of electronic gaming (simulation, action, strategy, role-playing) on spatial abilities and intelligence quotient and determine the correlation between spatial and intelligence quotients.

Abstract:

There is a kind of seemingly nonsensical play behavior found in the simulation sandbox game genre. This behavior is very spontaneous and impulsive and associated with self-initiated learning, and here the author seeks to better understand what it is, and why it seems associated with simulation sandbox games. That is: What purpose does it serve, and what might provoke it? This requires a review of the literature on this play behavior, and that of the simulation sandbox genre, respectively. From this review the author concluded firstly that there is strong support that exploratory play is for di

Abstract:

Employee development is not a choice for most organisations. It is something to be done to motivate employees and to keep them engaged. Different training and self-learning methods are used by employers for employee development. This article proposes the use of business simulation games, which offer many learning benefits to participants while keeping them engaged. This article also provides an example of a business simulation game, which illustrates how a multidisciplinary approach can be used for the development of employees.
