Generalized procedure calling and content-directed invocation

Proceedings of the 1977 symposium on Artificial intelligence and programming languages -, 1977
We suggest that the concept of a strategy can profitably be viewed as knowledge about how to select from among a set of plausibly useful knowledge sources , and explore the framework for knowledge organization which this implies.

Automatically testing self-driving cars with search-based procedural content generation

International Symposium on Software Testing and Analysis, 2019
Self-driving cars rely on software which needs to be thoroughly tested. Testing self-driving car software in real traffic is not only expensive but also dangerous, and has already caused fatalities.

Procedural Content Generation in the Game Industry

2017
Game content construction and generation are laborious and expensive. Procedural content generation (PCG) aims at generating game content automatically using algorithms, reducing the cost of game design and development. PCG systems have the potential to act as “on-demand game designers,” but need to be as flexible as possible while creating content ...

Designing Games with Procedural Content Generation

Proceedings of the 33rd Annual ACM Conference Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2015
This paper describes the design of a novel approach to procedural content generation, intent on supporting game design activities. The distinctive factor in this approach is that content generation is guided by a series of target experience indicators, which the designer can define freely according to his own agenda.

General Analytical Techniques For Parameter-Based Procedural Content Generators

2019 IEEE Conference on Games (CoG), 2019
Most generative systems built in game development are parameter-driven, but the relationship between parameters and the output of the system is often unclear. This makes them frustrating to use for both experts and novices, and as a result generators are often filtered post-hoc, or tweaked through time-consuming trial and error.

Formal Procedural Content Generation in Games Driven by Social Analyses

2017 31st International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications Workshops (WAINA), 2017
Millions of people play online computer games every day. Massive Multiplay Online (MMO) Games suffer a great problem: Developing new content for games (especially for Role Play Games-RPG) is an highly expensive and time consuming task. On the other hand, Players usually complain of static and repetitive contents of games and a rapid decrease of their ...

An Author-Centric Approach to Procedural Content Generation

2013
This paper describes an alternative approach for videogame procedural content generation focused on providing authors direct control on what gameplay ensues from the generated content. An architecture is proposed that allows designers to define, beforehand, target gameplay indicators, and then generates content for an existing base-design that achieves
