Most of the man-made systems can be modeled as a hybrid system which consists of both the high-level and the low-level component model. High level model is responsible for decision-making and the low-level one takes control of the mechanical component parts. Since the two models requires different interpretation method according to their type, analysis of a hybrid system becomes a difficult job. For the Analysis of the high-level model, methods for discrete event system models such as FSM can be used. On the contrary, numerical analysis techniques are required for the low-level continuous-time system model. Since it becomes a difficult thing for a modeller specifies and develops both the two-level models altogether, we propose an efficient hybrid simulation method which employs a game physics engine that has been widely and successfully used in the area of game industry.

Tsunami is a frightful natural disaster that causes severe damages worldwide. To minimize the damage, South Korea has built a tsunami warning system and designated evacuation sites in the east and south coasts. However, such countermeasures have not been verified whether they are adequate to minimize casualties since tsunami rarely occurs in South Korea. Recently, due to increasing earthquakes in the west coast of Japan, the likelihood of South Korea entering the damage area of tsunami rises; thus, in this paper, we develops a simulator based on Unity game engine to simulate the evacuation from tsunami. In order to increase the fidelity of the simulation results, the simulator applies a tsunami simulation model that analyzes coastal inundation based on cellular automata. In addition, the objects included in tsunami evacuation, such as humans, are modeled as an agent model that determines the situation and acts itself, based on the discrete-event system specification (DEVS), a mathematical formalism for describing a discrete event system. The tsunami simulation model and agent models are integrated and visualized in the simulator using Unity game engine. As an example of the use of this simulator, we verify the existing tsunami evacuation site in Gwangalli Beach in Busan and suggest the optimal alternative site minimizing casualties.

This paper describes research on intelligent game character through performance enhancements of physics engine in computer games. The algorithm that recognizes the physics situation uses momentum back-propagation neural networks. Also, we present an experiment and its results, integration methods that display optimum performance based on the physics situation. In this experiment on integration methods, the Euler method was shown to produce the best results in terms of fps in a simulation environment with collision detection. Simulation with collision detection was shown similar fps for all three methods and the Runge-kutta method was shown the greatest accuracy. In the experiment on physics situation recognition, a physics situation recognition algorithm where the number of input layers (number of physical parameters) and output layers (destruction value for the master car) is fixed has shown the best performance when the number of hidden layers is 3 and the learning count number is 30,000. Since we tested with rigid bodies only, we are currently studying efficient physics situation recognition for soft body objects.

In the late 1970s, the method of quantitative and scientific space structural analysis based on graph theory was introduced to the process of space design, which arranges design and functional elements, as relying heavily on intuition could produce errors due to unverified experiences and prejudices of the designer. As the method of space analysis is complex and hard to express visually and requires repetitive operations, it was discussed theoretically only. However, with the development of computer performance and graphic in recent years, visualization became possible. But the method of visual structural analysis of space is at the level of two dimensions and it is not easy to get accurate data when it is applied to limited three dimensional space such as an interior space. For the visual structural analysis of space, this study presents 4 indices including visibility volume level, pure visibility connection frequency, effective visibility connection frequency, and path visibility connection frequency. This study also presents space division using three dimensional arrangement rather than the existing vector operation method and raytracing algorithm at the lattice constant. Based on this, an analysis tool for the visible regions of three dimensional space that is capable of evaluating at multiple points by using three dimensional game engine and presentation tool that allows the analyzer to interpret the data effectively is made. It is applied to 2 prototype models by displacing Z axis, and the results are compared with UCL Depthmap to verify the validity of data and evaluate its usefulness as a multidimensional, multi-view space analysis tool.

Cross platform game has brought about the expansion of game market, which results in technology innovation overcoming the limit of game consumption. The new model integrates both off and online game services. Gamers can now enjoy game service regardless of age, time, and space. If the technology evolution model of digital contents like cross-platform game engine can provide contents for several platform at the same time, the interactive service can be utilized into maximum level. It is also necessary to allocate, switch data as well as to innovate the transmission technology of data according to each platform. Providing the same contents for several platform as many as possible can be the most suitable strategy to enhance the efficiency and profits. However if the interactive service can be accomplished completely, the development of data switching technology and distribution should be made. To be a leader in the next digital contents market, one should develop the network engine technology which can embody the optimization of consumption in the interactive network service.

In this study, the virtual exhibition using 3D architectural space was analyzed in terms of the viewer's experience. For this purpose, the analysis items of the virtual architectural space include whether the actual architectural space is reproduced, the introduction of surreal elements, the degree of freedom of movement and circulation, the level of photorealism of spatial expression, the level of reproduction of the exhibits and information provision method, and the interaction with other participants. Six virtual exhibition projects designed by a well-known architect were selected and analyzed. Three directions were found through the analysis. First, even when designing a virtual exhibition space with a high degree of freedom, there is a tendency to present a familiar architectural environment. Second, the current method of creating a virtual architectural space is that the method using a 360-degree rendering image and the method using a game engine coexist with pros and cons. Third, the interaction between participants in the virtual exhibition is implemented only by using a game engine. It is expected that the virtual space production environment using the game engine to be developed will become more advantageous in the future.

Lately the VR (Virtual Reality) game genre is becoming increasingly more popular and it has been cementing its place in the market as its own independent game genre. The key advantage of VR is that it lowers the barrier between player and the virtual world, thus creating an immersive experience. The suggested method develops a game that allows the player to experience what it is like to be visually impaired using the unique characteristics of VR. A distinctive feature of this game is that the character is provided only a limited range of sight, which is created using silhouette outlines. This restrictive visual field is then grafted onto VR and the player can indirectly experience blindness in a highly immersive manner. The silhouette outline along with the particle system is created using Oculus Rift, a headset highly used in VR game development, and Unity 3D game engine. We will also explain in detail regarding the removal of borders between the objects.
