Virtual Applications Applications with Virtual Inhabited 3D Worlds


Free Download Virtual Applications: Applications with Virtual Inhabited 3D Worlds By Peter Bøgh Andersen, Lars Qvortrup (auth.), Peter Andersen, Lars Qvortrup (eds.)
2004 | 260 Pages | ISBN: 1849968918 | PDF | 7 MB
3D Virtual Applications: Applications with Virtual Inhabited 3D Worlds deals with the use of virtual inhabited 3D spaces in different domains of society. (Other volumes deal with interaction, production methodology and space.) From focusing on virtual reality (a reality into which users and objects from the real world should be moved) we are increasingly focusing on augmented reality (i.e. on moving computers out into the reality of real users, objects and activities). This book deals with the use of virtual inhabited 3D spaces in both contexts. Based on the structuring of the application domains, this book looks at the use of VR and augmented reality in the following major application domains:- Production oriented applications – use of VR and augmented reality for control of complex production plants, for navigation support (ships, cars, aeroplanes) and for support of collaborative work processes- Communication support applications – virtual spaces are used for supporting communication in learning environments and for support of organisational communication. Also virtual spaces are used for supporting the navigation of people in public spaces, i.e. as maps, planning tools- Scientific applications – use of 3D models for medical research; use of dynamic models for representation of abstract concepts and ideas (data-mining applications); use of dynamic 3D models for simulating biological or social processes- Artistic and cultural applications – the construction of stages representing concepts and/or emotions

Virtual Machines


Free Download Virtual Machines By Iain D. Craig MA, PhD, MBCS, CITP (auth.)
2006 | 269 Pages | ISBN: 1852339691 | PDF | 27 MB
Virtual Machines offers a unique insight into the building of virtual machines for sequential, object-oriented and parallel languages, and uses comparisons of different VMs to provide actual, practical examples on how to build VMs.State transitions are used as a formal technique for the specification of virtual machines throughout and – in addition – transitions and state transitions relating to the general operation are included for specification of the virtual machine for the event-based system. Two virtual machines are defined using a simple sequential language, which is then generalised to include object and parallelism. Other themes explored include the implementation of VMs and proposals for future work. Appendices contain high-level specifications of two compilers: one for the simple language that serves as the basic example throughout the book, the other for the event-based language specified in Chapter 6.This book is an essential reference tool for academic and industrial researchers as well as postgraduates in this area.
