The multi-layer methodology focuses on design evaluation and collaboration between the expert, designer, and player. This new approach provides an effective assistance and visibility during the achievement of serious games and improves the combination of learning and entertainment fields, although it requires an implementation on a design process to allow the flexible interaction between methodology layers and design phases. In this paper, we define the multilayer methodology and how can actors collaborate to provide an effective design. Finally, we propose the integration of methodology as evaluation stage on the rapid prototyping process.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122338199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a case study the Ionic order of Greek and Roman temples is examined. In particular, the temple of Portunus in Rome, Italy was used as a case study. A set of geometric algorithms for computing shape points based on curved surfaces are presented, which allows creating the majority of Ionic temples. Evaluation of the results is performed based on the Hausdorff and Fréchet distances and results indicate that the proposed method provides a very good approximation for generating accurate Ionic order temples. However, ornaments that usually decorate the column capital have not been taken into account in this paper.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115300179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have overviewed specific literature that let us formulate the generalized definition of virtual world: computer- based three or two dimensional environment or space that can simulate real world where users represented by avatars are able to communicate or interact simultaneously or synchronically. This definition is quite limited when it comes to virtual non-ICT worlds. To understand the essence of virtual world we referred to postmodern philosophy that implies the possibility of multiple full fledged worlds. We have formulated one thesis stating that virtual world is the universum of simulacra and the second thesis stating that virtual world is fiction, imaginary and illusory, that becomes real and actual in the process of interaction between the Architect of a virtual world and the Beholders. The article proposes a new view on virtual world of video games.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131552870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has already been recognized that museums and heritage institutions can significantly benefit from this new paradigm by providing a more experiential and engaging approach to culture through interactive installations. This paper presents the development and evaluation of a cultural heritage application for learning about Cycladic sculpture, which places users in the role of the sculptor and lets them progressively create a statue by selecting and applying the appropriate tools. The application is based on bare hand interactions supported by Leap Motion. The evaluation results indicate that users found the experience positive and engaging, and lead to a number of issues for further consideration regarding the system setup and the user experience.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117138294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients' motivation is indeed hard to maintain when they have to execute repetitive, boring or tedious exercises. In such cases, they tend to practice less regularly and even to entirely give up the therapeutic protocol. Fortunately, therapeutic exercises can very often be turned into compelling games. Such textit{therapeutic games} are considered as a very promising solution to the patient adherence problem. Yet, therapeutic games are very complex to design : 1. the gameplay is particularly constrained, e.g. the game has to both motivate the patient and provide the therapeutic effects 2. the game must be evaluated on both its medical and motivational results, and 3. relevant health knowledge is hard to share between health experts and game designers. In this paper, we propose a game design method for therapeutic games that provides guidance for every step of the design, along with tools for every design challenges we identified.","PeriodicalId":239485,"journal":{"name":"2016 8th International Conference on Games and Virtual Worlds for Serious Applications (VS-GAMES)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123124843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
