Abstract
An authentic simulation platform for events situated in spatio-temporal space is presented. The authenticity, i.e., logical fidelity to the reality, of this cyberspace is realized by maximizing the diversity and unpredictability of events occurring therein. The knowledge components and associated schemes required for the simulation of events situated in spatio-temporal space encompass the environmental factors, the objects, the events, and their interrelations. We deviled event activation, triggering mechanism, and cognitive function related to event to realize an authentic simulation of discretionary events. The agents in this simulation environments are autonomous in that they have their own existence and capability of event planning. We focused on identifying basic constructs relevant to authentic simulation of discretionary events whose initiation depends on human intention. Several key ideas are implemented in a typical spatio-temporal situation to demonstrate the viability of our simulation mechanism.
