35. Plausible Simulation
Tuesday, Half Day, 8:30 am - 12:15 pm
Room 33 A-C
Level: Intermediate
A new view of simulation that includes an uncertainty model gives controllable results by allowing a wider range of plausible and accurate behavior. Several groundbreaking researchers present the principles and techniques of plausible simulation, show their latest results, and discuss the future of this emerging paradigm.
Prerequisites
Good working knowledge of computer graphics, especially simulation (for
example, this SIGGRAPH 2001 course: Simulating Nature: Realistic and Interactive Techniques).
Topics
Plausibility and accuracy. Uncertainty and non-determinacy. Choosing desired
outcomes and doing so efficiently. Choosing efficient outcomes. Interactive
design of rigid-body motion. Sketching-based design of rigid-body motion.
Plausible behavior in fluid dynamics.
