  • Cloud-Based Visual Discovery in Astronomy: Big Data Exploration Using Game Engines and VR on EOSC
    Novel EOSC services for Emerging Atmosphere, Underwater and Space Challenges 2020 October Cloud-Based Visual Discovery in Astronomy: Big Data Exploration using Game Engines and VR on EOSC Game engines are continuously evolving toolkits that assist in communicating with underlying frameworks and APIs for rendering, audio and interfacing. A game engine core functionality is its collection of libraries and user interface used to assist a developer in creating an artifact that can render and play sounds seamlessly, while handling collisions, updating physics, and processing AI and player inputs in a live and continuous looping mechanism. Game engines support scripting functionality through, e.g. C# in Unity [1] and Blueprints in Unreal, making them accessible to wide audiences of non-specialists. Some game companies modify engines for a game until they become bespoke, e.g. the creation of star citizen [3] which was being created using Amazon’s Lumebryard [4] until the game engine was modified enough for them to claim it as the bespoke “Star Engine”. On the opposite side of the spectrum, a game engine such as Frostbite [5] which specialised in dynamic destruction, bipedal first person animation and online multiplayer, was refactored into a versatile engine used for many different types of games [6]. Currently, there are over 100 game engines (see examples in Figure 1a). Game engines can be classified in a variety of ways, e.g. [7] outlines criteria based on requirements for knowledge of programming, reliance on popular web technologies, accessibility in terms of open source software and user customisation and deployment in professional settings.

    The Video Game Industry An Industry Analysis, from a VC Perspective Nik Shah T’05 MBA Fellows Project March 11, 2005 Hanover, NH The Video Game Industry An Industry Analysis, from a VC Perspective Authors: Nik Shah • The video game industry is poised for significant growth, but [email protected] many sectors have already matured. Video games are a large and Tuck Class of 2005 growing market. However, within it, there are only selected portions that contain venture capital investment opportunities. Our analysis Charles Haigh [email protected] highlights these sectors, which are interesting for reasons including Tuck Class of 2005 significant technological change, high growth rates, new product development and lack of a clear market leader. • The opportunity lies in non-core products and services. We believe that the core hardware and game software markets are fairly mature and require intensive capital investment and strong technology knowledge for success. The best markets for investment are those that provide valuable new products and services to game developers, publishers and gamers themselves. These are the areas that will build out the industry as it undergoes significant growth. A Quick Snapshot of Our Identified Areas of Interest • Online Games and Platforms. Few online games have historically been venture funded and most are subject to the same “hit or miss” market adoption as console games, but as this segment grows, an opportunity for leading technology publishers and platforms will emerge. New developers will use these technologies to enable the faster and cheaper production of online games. The developers of new online games also present an opportunity as new methods of gameplay and game genres are explored.

The law also provided that the state political party chairpersons could provide the Secretary of State with a list of individuals whom they consider to be potential presidential nominees for their political party. The Secretary of State was then required to notify each candidate appearing on the lists who in turn was required to file an affidavit indicating his or her political party preference and willingness to have his or her name appear on the ballot. Individuals whose names did not appear on either the Secretary of State’s or a political party list could qualify as a candidate by filing nominating petitions. The petitions were required to be signed by registered electors equal to at least ½ of 1% of the total vote cast in the previous presidential election for the presidential candidate of the political party of the individual.

    Al Fishman Collection Papers, 1967-1974 6 linear feet 6 storage boxes Accession # 1654 DALNET # OCLC # While Al Fishman’s political activism in Detroit and the state of Michigan reaches back to the late 1940s, this collection of his papers deals primarily with Fishman’s term as state chairperson for the New Democratic Coalition of Michigan (1966-1971) and with his involvement in Detroit- area political organizations such as North Detroit Citizens for McGovern (1972) and Turn Detroit Around (1973). Among other issues, the New Democratic Coalition of Michigan (NDCM) supported the candidacy of Eugene McCarthy and opposed American involvement in the war in Vietnam. Turn Detroit Around formed to attract white voters to support Coleman Young’s first mayoral bid and to support an interracial slate of Common Council candidates. Mr. Fishman was also vice-chairperson of Urban Alliance (1968-1970) as well as a Michigan Democratic Party state central committee member. The Al Fishman Collection consists of correspondence, minutes, publications and other materials documenting Mr. Fishman’s political activities from 1967 to 1974.

Tempe, Arizona 85281 P: 801.425.3421 Local Office: E: [email protected] 6100 Foulois Road, Building 737 Hill Air Force Base, Utah 04856 Technical Energy Audit Executive Summary Ameresco, Inc. (Ameresco) is pleased to submit this Technical Energy Audit (TEA) to New Mexico State University (NMSU). Based on our site visits, work, and observations throughout the Las Cruces campus, this TEA provides recommended energy conservation measures (ECMs) that would reduce energy and operational costs at 45 campus buildings and campus wide facilities. Ameresco developed this TEA based on NMSU’s Professional Services Contract #201302796-A and Ameresco’s site visits, workshops, and utility analysis and energy calculations. This TEA is intended to provide an overall representation of the potential for energy and operational savings at NMSU. Based on the data collected from site surveys, facility interviews, and other means, Ameresco identified several ECMs that could help NMSU reduce overall operational costs. ES.1 Energy Conservation Measures ECMs found to have the best financial performance or are high priorities for NMSU include: • ECM 1: Interior Lighting • ECM 2: Exterior Lighting • ECM 3: Exterior Pole Mounted Lighting • ECM 6: Retrocommissioning • ECM 7: Variable Air Volume Retrofit • ECM 10: Economizer Upgrade or Repair • ECM 12: Chilled Water Pump Bypass • ECM 26: Satellite Plant Energy Savings • ECM 28: MyEnergyPro™-OpsPRO • ECM 29: MyEnergyPro™-DashPRO • ECM 30: MyEnergyPro™-Optimization Model ES.2 Savings Total projected savings from implementing these ECMs are $1,278,725.
