The Conference encompasses all topics related to computer games design
and development. Papers are particularly welcome that cover the use of
animation, mobile platforms, education, AI for modelling and programming
"believable characters" and serious games. Depending on submissions,
the conference is expected to have several special Tracks/Sessions:
- Tools and systems for Games and Virtual Reality
- Games platforms, games engines, middleware, sound
- Interfaces and controllers, speech, motion capture
- AI Tools
- Neural networks, genetic algorithms, case-based reasoning, fuzzy systems
- Markov processes, search algorithms, rule-based AI, finite-state machines
- Fuzzy systems (FuFSM), adaptive Markov models
- Mobile and Multiuser Games
- MUDs; MMORPGs; mobile communications, games for mobile phones
- Programming web games in Java, net technology, scaling game content.
- Games Design
- Games genres, creative aspects, art and design, level design, modelling
- Animation, 3dsmax, Maya, Silicon Graphics, Renderman etc;
