A Multi-Objective Approach To Tactical Maneuvering Within Real Time Strategy Games, Christopher D. Ball
A Multi-Objective Approach To Tactical Maneuvering Within Real Time Strategy Games, Christopher D. Ball
Theses and Dissertations
The real time strategy (RTS) environment is a strong platform for simulating complex tactical problems. The overall research goal is to develop artificial intelligence (AI) RTS planning agents for military critical decision making education. These agents should have the ability to perform at an expert level as well as to assess a players critical decision-making ability or skill-level. The nature of the time sensitivity within the RTS environment creates very complex situations. Each situation must be analyzed and orders must be given to each tactical unit before the scenario on the battlefield changes and makes the decisions no longer relevant. …
Visualization And Animation Of A Missile/Target Encounter, Jeffrey T. Bush
Visualization And Animation Of A Missile/Target Encounter, Jeffrey T. Bush
Theses and Dissertations
Existing missile/target encounter modeling and simulation systems focus on improving probability of kill models. Little research has been done to visualize these encounters. These systems can be made more useful to the engineers by incorporating current computer graphics technology for visualizing and animating the encounter. Our research has been to develop a graphical simulation package for visualizing both endgame and full fly-out encounters. Endgame visualization includes showing the interaction of a missile, its fuze cone proximity sensors, and its target during the final fraction of a second of the missile/target encounter. Additionally, this system displays dynamic effects such as the …
