While the industry is still buzzing about Microsoft bringing Bash to Windows 10 , the software giant also unveiled several new Office 365 capabilities at the Build conference this week in San Francisco. Microsoft announced an assortment of new features, application programming interfaces (APIs) and software development kits (SDKs) that are poised to change the way users collaborate and help developers exploit the productivity software ecosystem's growing collection of intelligent services for their own applications. Among them is an upgraded Microsoft Graph. Microsoft Graph (formerly the Office 365 Unified API) enables developers to create applications that incorporate data and intelligence from Microsoft. At Build, the software maker announced that it is exposing more functionality for more full-featured, Office-compatible apps. "New APIs return 'relevant documents' and suggestions for meeting times based on real-time calendar availability," wrote Kirk Koenigsbauer, corporate vice president for the Office team, in a blog post. "And new web and device SDKs make it easier than ever to access the Microsoft Graph and surface Office 365 data in business solutions using simple drop-in integrations like the OneDrive file picker. " Developers can now access the out-of-office status of a user and recent email attachments. In a move to improve application responsiveness, Microsoft Graph now provides notifications for changes in users' calendar, email and contacts. Further unifying the Office experience across devices, add-ins are coming to Office for Mac this spring, Microsoft announced. The company also unveiled new centralized add-in deployment and methods of programmatically creating custom Office ribbons and buttons. In keeping with the "Conversations as a Platform" theme of this year's conference, Microsoft showcased the new Office 365 Groups connectors, Skype Web SDK and Skype for Business App SDK. Office 365 Groups connectors push data from other applications like Salesforce and Zendesk in shared Office Group inboxes in Outlook, sparking conversations and helping teams collaborate on opportunities, service requests and other business tasks. Building on the increasingly closer ties between the Skype and Office 365 platforms, both the Skype Web SDK and Skype for Business App SDK, offered through the Office Dev Center , offer developers cloud-based secure messaging, calling, conferencing and real-time presence capabilities. Finally, Office is getting holographic. Microsoft has made preview versions of the Office Universal apps available to download on the HoloLens Development Edition via the Windows Store. HoloLens is a Windows 10-powered, augmented reality headset that overlays 3D images, or holograms, over a user's physical surroundings. The Development Edition of the hardware, priced at $3,000, started shipping March 30. Representing an early stab at a virtual Office experience, users can expect to run into some shortcomings.

  • Dataspillsjanger
    Bibliotekarstudentens nettleksikon om litteratur og medier Av Helge Ridderstrøm (førsteamanuensis ved OsloMet – storbyuniversitetet) Sist oppdatert 08.12.20 Dataspillsjanger (_dataspill) Det finnes mange blandingsformer og underkategorier, og det kan legges ulike kriterier til grunn for inndelingen, f.eks. slik: Innhold Form Marked Eventyrspill Brettspill CD-rom-spill Nærkampspill Plattformspill Free/Share-ware-spill Kjørespill Programmeringsspill Gamle spill Krigsspill Rollespill Pedagogiske spill Pornospill Simulatorspill Spillehallspill Skytespill Strategispill TV-spill Sportspill Tekstspill Andre spill (Aarseth 1997b) – “Marked” omfatter hos Aarseth ulike kriterier knyttet til bruksmåte (pedagogisk), spillested (spillhallspill), teknologi (cd-rom-spill) m.m. Andre skiller mellom konsollspill, PC-spill osv. (ulike “plattformer”). Noen spill er en samling av mange småspill (ad hoc-spill) innen ulike sjangrer. Den britiske journalisten Steven Poole skiller i boka Trigger happy: The inner life of videogames (2000) mellom noen store sjangerkategorier: shooter, racing, jump’n’run/plattformspill, beat’em-up, god games, strategispill, sportssimulasjoner, rollespill og puzzle-spill. Simon Egenfeldt-Nielsen m.fl.s bok Understanding Video Games (2008) opererer med fire overordnete sjangrer: action, adventure, strategi og åpne, “process-oriented” spill. “We propose a genre system based on a game’s criteria for success […] So rather than focus on criteria like theme or narrative, the system we're proposing focuses directly on a feature important to games: goals, and how to achieve them.” (s. 41; her sitert fra Rauscher 2012 s. 15) Marc Marti hevder at en dataspillsjanger kan bestemmes ut fra tre faktorer: hva slags type simulasjon spillet er basert på, gjentakelsesmuligheter og tekniske innovasjoner (http://narratologie.revues.org/7009; lesedato 19.01.15).

It’s a very young project, so don’t be surprised if something is missing. But now get ready for a wild ride into a world where GET and POST don’t mean anything and consistency is a lucky mistake. Contents 1 GOG-API Documentation, Release 0.1 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 Contents 1.1 Authentication 1.1.1 Introduction All GOG APIs support token authorization, similar to OAuth2. The web domains www.gog.com, embed.gog.com and some of the Galaxy domains support session cookies too. They both have to be obtained using the GOG login page, because a CAPTCHA may be required to complete the login process. 1.1.2 Auth-Flow 1. Use an embedded browser like WebKit, Gecko or CEF to send the user to https://auth.gog.com/auth. An add-on in your desktop browser should work as well. The exact details about the parameters of this request are described below. 2. Once the login process is completed, the user should be redirected to https://www.gog.com/on_login_success with a login “code” appended at the end.

  • Os Videojogos Indie Como Forma De Expressão Autoral: Criatividade, Estilo E Significado
    UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA PORTUGUESA OS VIDEOJOGOS INDIE COMO FORMA DE EXPRESSÃO AUTORAL: CRIATIVIDADE, ESTILO E SIGNIFICADO Tese apresentada à Universidade Católica Portuguesa para obtenção do grau de Doutor em Ciência e Tecnologia das Artes - especialidade em Arte Interativa Por João Domingos Pinho Alves de Sousa Sob orientação de Carlos Sena Caires ESCOLA DAS ARTES (março, 2016) Agradecimentos Concluir com sucesso um programa de Doutoramento que toma forma física através da redação desta tese não foi uma tarefa fácil e, por isso, quero deixar a minha palavra de apreço a algumas das pessoas que me auxiliaram neste percurso: Aos autores de videojogos que me marcaram e influenciaram a seguir por esta área de trabalho e de investigação. Poderia referir diversos nomes que, de certa forma, me acompanharam da infância à vida adulta mas destaco dois: Shigeru Miyamoto pela sua importância na indústria e por se manter fiel às suas origens com videojogos que nos fazem sorrir; Jonathan Blow, por despertar o desejo por videojogos que não nos deixem indiferentes. Agradeço ao Pedro Mendes pela amizade, companhia e trabalho conjunto desenvolvido na Imaginary Labs assim como ao Gustavo Areias, Simão Carvalho, João Rui Braga, Leslie Martins e restantes parceiros no desenvolvimento de novos projetos. Ao Professor Doutor Carlos Sena Caires pela sua orientação eficaz e ponderada. Aos meus pais por me incentivarem e apoiarem a seguir o percurso de investigação e uma carreira académica. À minha esposa Ana Luísa que esteve sempre comigo nas horas de maior e menor motivação e sem a qual não seria possível a conclusão deste percurso. Dedico este trabalho a eles e também aos meus filhos pois tudo que fiz não foi só por mim mas também por eles.
