    BACHELOR THESIS “How does Sound Design Impact the Players Perception of the Level of Difficulty in a First Person Shooter Game?” Sebastian Darth 2015 Bachelor of Arts Audio Engineering Luleå University of Technology Department of Arts, Communication and Education 1 “How does sound design impact the players perception of the level of difficulty in a first person shooter game?” Sebastian Darth 2015 Bachelor of Science Audio Engineering Luleå University of Technology Department of Arts, Communication and Education 2 Abstract This research paper explore if a games sound design have an impact on a games perceived difficulty from a players point of view. The game industry produces many game titles that are similar in terms of mechanics and controls, for example, first person shooter games. This thesis investigates if the differences in sound design matter. Where many first person shooter games are very similar in terms of gameplay, controls and sound design, these sound designs are similar though not identical. With new information on how players use sound when they play games, interesting new games styles, mechanics and kinds of game-play could be explored. This study found that players use the sounds of his or her allies in the game more than any other sound when presented different tasks in games. It was also shown that players use the sound of weapon fire to know where their targets are and when they need to take cover to avoid defeat. Finally it was suggested that loud weapons might impact the perceived difficulty as it might cover the sounds of the various voices.

With multiple insurgencies operating in several theaters this research was developed to provide a historical, geographical, and functional understanding of past and present insurgencies and counterinsurgency operations. Social Science for Counterterrorism Putting the Pieces Together Darcy Noricks et al., 2009 This report from an interdisciplinary project to survey and integrate the scholarly social- science literature relevant to counterterrorism answers questions related to why some individuals become terrorists, how terrorists generate public support, how terrorist organizations make decisions, and why individuals disengage.

  • Information Warfare, International Law, and the Changing Battlefield
    ARTICLE INFORMATION WARFARE, INTERNATIONAL LAW, AND THE CHANGING BATTLEFIELD Dr. Waseem Ahmad Qureshi* ABSTRACT The advancement of technology in the contemporary era has facilitated the emergence of information warfare, which includes the deployment of information as a weapon against an adversary. This is done using a numBer of tactics such as the use of media and social media to spread propaganda and disinformation against an adversary as well as the adoption of software hacking techniques to spread viruses and malware into the strategically important computer systems of an adversary either to steal confidential data or to damage the adversary’s security system. Due to the intangible nature of the damage caused By the information warfare operations, it Becomes challenging for international law to regulate the information warfare operations. The unregulated nature of information operations allows information warfare to Be used effectively By states and nonstate actors to gain advantage over their adversaries. Information warfare also enhances the lethality of hyBrid warfare. Therefore, it is the need of the hour to arrange a new convention or devise a new set of rules to regulate the sphere of information warfare to avert the potential damage that it can cause to international peace and security.
