Deze studio wilt een nieuw project starten voor een 3D spel in een HyperText Markup Language 5 (HTML5) browser die intensief gebruik zal maken van artificiële intelligentie (AI) en Web Graphics Library (WebGL). Na onderzoek via een requirements-analyse van verschillende mogelijkheden van game engines komen we terecht bij twee opties namelijk Unity 5, die Rusty Bolt al reeds gebruikt, of de Unreal Engine 4, wat voor hen onbekend terrein is. Qua features zijn ze enorm verschillend, maar ze voldoen elk niet aan één voorwaarde die Rusty Bolt verwacht van een game engine. Zo biedt Unity Technologies wel een mogelijkheid om software te bouwen in de cloud. De broncode van Unity wordt niet openbaar gesteld, tenzij men er extra voor betaalt. Deze game engine is dus niet volledig open source in tegenstelling tot Unreal Engine 4. We vergelijken dan verder ook deze twee engines, namelijk Unity 5 en Unreal Engine 4. We tonen aan dat deze engines visueel verschillen van features, maar ook een andere implementatie van de AI hanteren.

An Authoring Tool for Educators to Make Virtual Labs
An authoring tool for educators to make virtual labs Dimitrios Ververidis1, Giannis Chantas1, Panagiotis Migkotzidis1, Eleftherios Anastasovitis1, Anastasios Papazoglou-Chalikias1, Efstathios Nikolaidis1, Spiros Nikolopoulos1, Ioannis Kompatsiaris1, Georgios Mavromanolakis2, Line Ebdrup Thomsen3, Antonios Liapis4, Georgios Yannakakis4, Marc Müller5, and Fabian Hadiji5 1 Centre of Research and Technology, Hellas, Greece ? 2 Ellinogermaniki Agogi 3 Aalborg University 4 University of Malta 5 goedle.io Gmbh Abstract. This paper focuses on the design and implementation of a tool that allows educators to author 3D virtual labs. The methodology followed is based on web 3D frameworks such as three.js and WordPress that allowed us to develop simpliﬁed interfaces for modifying Unity3D templates. Two types of templates namely one for Chemistry and one for Wind Energy labs were developed that allow to test the generalization, user-friendliness and usefulness of such an approach. Results have shown that educators are much interested on the general concept, but several improvements should be made towards the user-friendliness and the in- tuitiveness of the interfaces in order to allow the inexperienced educators in 3D gaming to make such an attempt. 1 Introduction Educational organizations often use electronic games in order to facilitate learn- ing. These games simulate real-life situations, and allow the learner to be trained in a controlled environment. 3D games have been signiﬁcantly improved in the last years with the advent of Virtual Reality (VR) technologies. Their matu- rity has raised the interest of several organizations in order to be exploited in education and training [9],[12]. However, several barriers such as the high cost and the luck of proper design prevent their expansion.

ADAPTIVITY OF 3D WEB CONTENT IN WEB-BASED VIRTUAL MUSEUMS A QUALITY OF SERVICE AND QUALITY OF EXPERIENCE PERSPECTIVE Hussein Bakri A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of PhD at the University of St Andrews 2019 Full metadata for this item is available in St Andrews Research Repository at: http://research-repository.st-andrews.ac.uk/ Please use this identifier to cite or link to this item: http://hdl.handle.net/10023/18453 This item is protected by original copyright Adaptivity of 3D Web Content in Web-Based Virtual Museums A Quality of Service and Quality of Experience Perspective Hussein Bakri This thesis is submitted in partial fulﬁlment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) at the University of St Andrews December 2018 Abstract The 3D Web emerged as an agglomeration of technologies that brought the third dimension to the World Wide Web. Its forms spanned from being systems with limited 3D capabilities to complete and complex Web-Based Virtual Worlds. The advent of the 3D Web provided great opportunities to museums by giving them an innovative medium to disseminate collections’ information and associated interpretations in the form of digital artefacts, and virtual reconstructions thus leading to a new revolutionary way in cultural heritage curation, preservation and dissemination thereby reaching a wider audience. This audience consumes 3D Web material on a myriad of devices (mobile devices, tablets and personal computers) and network regimes (WiFi, 4G, 3G, etc.). Choreographing and presenting 3D Web components across all these heterogeneous platforms and network regimes present a signiﬁcant challenge yet to overcome. The challenge is to achieve a good user Quality of Experience (QoE) across all these platforms.

Stan on Refugees Harnidh Kaur at Ithaka Events Hindi Play at Antas Kanchan Daniel performing at Saumvedna 2018 Kavita Krishnan at Conclave EDITORIAL The Story of Inclusion The Government of India’s recent policy on education has made “inclusive education” a right for students with varying learning-challenges. Therefore, significant alterations have been incorporated in the teaching, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS learning and assessment dynamics. The voyage of Dr. Agnelo Menezes inclusion in St. Xavier’s since 1869 has evolved in stages and can figuratively be called a rhizomatic journey. Principal The terms “rhizome” and “rhizomatic” were employed by philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari to MAGAZINE COMMITTEE challenge notions of dualisms and binary oppositions Dr. Rashmi Lee George (Convenor) in the conception of knowledge. They posit a non- hierarchical and multitudinous approach to knowledge. Ms. S.P. Periyanayagi In India, where education was the prerogative of Dr. Pearl Pastakia a select few, St. Xavier’s embraced all. The Jesuit Dr. Shiney Peter philosophy of education has been to tenaciously share its wisdom with people from all walks including the Ms. Medha Taskar margins and peripheries. Dr. Bhagwati P.

Performance and Ease of Use in 3D on the Web
"$ # % ! #"% #" !""#"% ! $ This bachelor thesis is submitted to the Faculty of Computing at Blekinge Institute of Technology in partial fulfilment of the requirements for a bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering. The thesis is equivalent to 10 weeks of full-time studies. Contact Information Author: Julia Johansson E-mail: [email protected] University advisor: Emil Folino Department of Computer Science Faculty of Computing Internet : www.bth.se Blekinge Institute of Technology Phone : +46 455 38 50 00 SE-371 79 Karlskrona Sweden Fax : +46 455 38 50 57 2 Abstract 3D JavaScript frameworks are used for creating interactive 3D in web applications. There are two prominent frameworks: Babylon.js and Three.js. They are often compared to one another where performance and ease of use are mentioned as important factors. A web developer could face choosing a 3D framework. This thesis aims to aid in that process. It investigates how Babylon.js compares to Three.js when it comes to performance such as memory use and frames per second for the end-user consuming a web app. It also investigates how they compare when it comes to ease of use for the developer in terms of initial learnability. For the performance part, a web app with a minimalistic one box animation was created with each framework and deployed on Netlify. The web app was accessed with a browser’s developer tools to record memory and frames per second. For the ease of use part, observation sessions were made with nine developers who were tasked with getting a basic 3D model up and running locally with each framework with the official documentation as a starting point, one hour limit respectively.
