| Abstract |
| Intelligent agents, situated within a virtual environment (VE), need the ability to navigate and decide on a course of action. The problem lies in the fact that there is a lack of libraries and methodologies for implementing realistic behaviors. According to Winikoff there is a clear lack of processes methodologies, and libraries to prevent this. The objective of this project is to develop a methodology that will aid developers in the implementation of realistic characteristics in environmental agents such as flood, fire, and storms and implement a library to show it is feasible. The results of this project will be a methodology for representing realistic behavior of agents in simulations and a library to show this concept is viable. This could potentially lead the way to a more open framework in simulations and help improve the quality of simulations that involve fire by allowing developers to extend a generic component instead of starting from scratch. |
