[2] is a popular puzzle game created by Asher Vollmer, Greg Wohlwend, and Jimmy Hinson (music), and released by Sirvo for iOS on January 23, 2014. The game received considerable attention from players, game critics and game designers. Only a few weeks after its release, an Android clone Fives appeared, and then an iOS clone 1024! with slightly modified rules. Shortly after, two open source web game versions, both called 2048 were released on github on the same day, one by Saming [12], the other by Gabriele Cirulli [5]. Since then over a hundred new variant have been catalogued [9]. In December 2014, Threes! received the Apple Game of the Year and the Apple Design award.

  • List of TCP and UDP Port Numbers from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    List of TCP and UDP port numbers From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This is a list of Internet socket port numbers used by protocols of the transport layer of the Internet Protocol Suite for the establishment of host-to-host connectivity. Originally, port numbers were used by the Network Control Program (NCP) in the ARPANET for which two ports were required for half- duplex transmission. Later, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) needed only one port for full- duplex, bidirectional traffic. The even-numbered ports were not used, and this resulted in some even numbers in the well-known port number /etc/services, a service name range being unassigned. The Stream Control Transmission Protocol database file on Unix-like operating (SCTP) and the Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) also systems.[1][2][3][4] use port numbers. They usually use port numbers that match the services of the corresponding TCP or UDP implementation, if they exist. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is responsible for maintaining the official assignments of port numbers for specific uses.[5] However, many unofficial uses of both well-known and registered port numbers occur in practice. Contents 1 Table legend 2 Well-known ports 3 Registered ports 4 Dynamic, private or ephemeral ports 5 See also 6 References 7 External links Table legend Official: Port is registered with IANA for the application.[5] Unofficial: Port is not registered with IANA for the application. Multiple use: Multiple applications are known to use this port. Well-known ports The port numbers in the range from 0 to 1023 are the well-known ports or system ports.[6] They are used by system processes that provide widely used types of network services.

  • The Architecture and Evolution of Computer Game Engines
    The architecture and evolution of computer game engines University of Oulu Department of Information Processing Sciences B.Sc thesis Rainer Koirikivi 12.3.2015 2 Abstract In this study, the architecture and evolution of computer game engines are analyzed by means of a literature review on the academic research body on the subject. The history of computer games, from early 1960s to modern day is presented, with a focus on the architectures behind the games. In the process, this study will answer a selection of research questions. The topics of the questions include identifying the common parts of a game engine, identifying the architectural trends in the evolution from early to present-day games and engines, identifying ways the process of evolution has affected the present state of the engines, and presenting some possible future trends for the evolution. As findings of the study, common parts of a game engine were identified as the parts that are specific to every game, with the suggestion that more detailed analyses could be made by concentrating on different genres. Increase in the size, modularity and portability of game engines, and improved tooling associated with them were identified as general trends in the evolution from first games to today. Various successful design decisions behind certain influential games were identified, and the way they affect the present state of the engines were discussed. Finally, increased utilization of parallelism, and the move of game engines from genre-specific towards genre-neutral were identified as possible future trends in the evolution. Keywords computer game, video game, game engine, game, software architecture, architecture, evolution 3 Foreword I'd like to thank my thesis supervisor Jouni Lappalainen for his continued support on what turned to be an epic journey into the fields of game engines and academic writing.

  • Gay Engines: Imagining a Queer Development Platform for Video
    Gay Engines: Imagining a Queer Development Platform for Video Games Cass Zegura MCM 1990: Honors Thesis/Project in Modern Culture and Media April 5, 2020 1 Preface The story of this project begins in the fall of 2017, at a crowded tapas bar in downtown Providence. My aunt and uncle, who live in Boston, had come down to visit and take me out to dinner. It was a perfectly ordinary night except in one regard: when I told my aunt and uncle about the classes I was taking that semester, a strange look crossed their faces. I thought the source of their confusion might be the computer science course I had mentioned, an upper-level design class called Independent Study in 2D Game Engines. I assumed that they, like I, had never heard of the term “game engine” before and thus did not know what it was. And as I launched into my explanation (which I won’t repeat here—I’ve already written an entire chapter dedicated to this question), the confusion diminished, but only somewhat, and we soon changed subjects. On a phone call with my mom a few days later, I learned the true source of my aunt and uncle’s befuddlement. In that noisy restaurant, the word “game” had transformed into the word “gay.” They thought that I was taking a class on 2D gay engines. No wonder they were ​ ​ confused! I would’ve been too. What the heck is a gay engine anyway? Of course, I didn’t know then that I was going to spend my senior year trying to answer that question.
