Scripting game AI : an alternative approach using embedded languages

Scripting is often used in games to enable customisation of the behaviour of game entities. In this paper we look at the different approaches taken to introduce scripting in games and identify the desirable features of a game scripting language. We then present an approach based on the use of embedded languages where a scripting language is implemented within a general purpose programming language. The approach is compared and contrasted to the other approaches.peer-reviewe

An embedded domain specific language to model, transform and quality assure business processes in business-driven development

In Business-Driven Development (BDD), business process models are produced by business analysts. To ensure that the business requirements are satisfied, the IT solution is directly derived through a process of model refinement. If models do not contain all the required technical details or contain errors, the derived implementation would be incorrect and the BDD lifecycle would have to be repeated. In this project we present a functional domain specific language embedded in Haskell, with which: 1) models can rapidly be produced in a concise and abstract manner, 2) enables focus on the specifications rather than the implementation, 3) ensures that all the required details, to generate the executable code, are specified, 4) models can be transformed, analysed and interpreted in various ways, 5) quality assures models by carrying out three types of checks; by Haskell‟s type checker, at construction-time and by functions that analyse the soundness of models, 6) enables users to define quality assured composite model transformations.peer-reviewe

Automatic definition extraction using parser combinators

The automatic extraction of definitions from natural language texts has various applications such as the creation of glossaries and question-answering systems. In this paper we look at the extraction of definitions from non-technical texts using parser combinators in Haskell. We argue that this approach gives a general and compositional way of characterising natural language definitions. The parsers we develop are shown to be highly effective in the identification of definitions. Furthermore, we show how we can also automatically transform these parsers into other formats to be readily available for use within an eLearning system.peer-reviewe
