Dialog Designs in Virtual Drama: Balancing Agency and Scripted Dialogs
[chapter]
2012
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The scripts for actors consist of two parts: movements and dialogs, however, the dialogs are insufficiently addressed in current research of story generation, thereby limiting the generated stories. ...
In addition, we introduce the manner in which agents may improvise scripted dialogs by selecting various courses of actions. ...
Virtual actors: virtual agents may be implemented by various methods in virtual environments and intended to act as characters in the play. ...

2004
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper, we introduce SALSA-MPI, an actor programming language approach to scientific computing that extends MPI with a checkpointing and migration API and a runtime system that manages both periodic ...
The virtual machines, called theaters, provide an environment for execution of universal actors using local resources. ...
This infrastructure is highly dynamic thanks to its support for 1) resource profiling, 2) migration of actors to optimal execution environments, and 3) dynamic addition and removal of nodes in the computation ...

An LLVM-based decoder for MPEG Reconfigurable Video Coding
2010
2010 IEEE Workshop On Signal Processing Systems
This methodology aims at producing Abstract Decoder Models (ADMs) of MPEG decoders as dataflow programs described in RVC-CAL Actor Language (RVC-CAL) [1]. ...
This paper presents new mechanisms based on the Low Level Virtual Machine (LLVM) capacities that allow the conception of the first decoder able to dynamically instantiate an RVC decoder description. ...
This property allows each actor of a dataflow model to be unbound to its environment and thus to be easily used in others. ...

An integrated environment for HW/SW co-design based on a CAL specification and HW/SW code generators
2009
2009 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems
Each actor executes in a sequence of steps, during which it can (1) consume input tokens, (2) produce output tokens, (3) modify its own local state. ...
The demonstration focuses on the capability of the co-design environment to automatically build an executable heterogeneous system implementation running on a platform composed by a processor and a FPGA ...
In this way the actors mapped as HDL code on the FPGA can execute their tasks when they receive the tokens via the virtual channels established by the API. ...
