Software Distributions 2002- JADE We have contributed to the JADE open source agent system. In 2002 we developed a hierarchical state machine model for improving the control of agents. This package was included in the Jade 3.0 system released in 2003. In addition, we developed tools that allowed the integration of Visual Studio .NET with JADE via the LEAP system. These tools have been included in the 3.x release. 1996-1998 - CWave Our CWave software, currently under development has been made available on the network and has been picked up by a few anonymous people. Since it is still under development, we do not anticipate large scale use just yet. It is currently being used extensively within HP in their research labs for a software engineering project, and within two divisions using its capabilities for test and measurement. 1993-1995 - HIPPIX

Software 93 94 95 Hippix 15 123 ~250

The HIPPIX Commands and Libraries for Windows NT, technology developed in CSS with funding from the State of Utah Center of Excellence program was spun off to Hippo Software for further distribution. They produced the distributions mentioned above. As of December 1994, the licenses for that software has been transferred to Pacific HiTech, which distributed approximately the quantity above. 1991-1994 - MacDump

Courses Developed CS6070/FILM6711, EAE:MGS Game Projects I – a class for learning how to develop games using a rapid prototyping style of a new game every four weeks. CS6071/FILM6712, EAE:MGS Game Projects II – a class where game ideas are pitched and then narrowed down to a game chosen by faculty and industry to be built in a large team of students. CS6072/FILM6713, EAE:MGS Game Projects III – this class takes the alpha version of the game and creates a beta version and submits to a festival. CS6073/FILM6714, EAE:MGS Game Projects IV – polishing the game and publishing it. CS3500 - Created a sophomore level class for beginning Computer Science majors. The basic concept was to teach some software engineering, team programming, testing, maintenance, and good programming practice. CS3960-1/CS3505 – Created a follow-on to cs3500 that focuses on team-based software engineering in the PDA domain. This will be required starting in Spring 2007 (and renumbered cs3505). CS4510/CS4515 – Created a year long senior project class for EAE students where students build a video game from beginning to release to the world.

20

CS5964/6964/6966 (now CS3660) – Created a project course in Machinima that gets CS and Fine Arts students to work together to create animation. Plus a follow-on course for a second semester. CS451/452/453 - Completely revamped the course with the help of Professor Martin Griss. Goal was to inject true software engineering, software reuse, and disciplined software development via personal software processes. CS546 -- Designed course to teach students to become highly proficient programmers in Lisp, using Artificial Intelligence examples to enhance their understanding and capabilities for learning about AI. CS548 -- Developed course to teach students about expert systems, knowledge acquisition, knowledge engineering, and rule-based programming. This provides students with practical knowledge of knowledge-based systems as well as development of those kinds of systems.

Media Appearances I’ve given up listing all of these. There are just too many to enumerate them all. The Spring 2013 issue of Continuum includes an excellent spread on the EAE program. (http://continuum.utah.edu/features/game-on)

Entertainment Arts and Engineering Founded the Entertainment Arts and Engineering (EAE) undergraduate program in 2007. EAE is interdisciplinary between the School of Computing and the Department of Film and Media Arts. Students in the program complete either their BS in Computer Science or BA in Film Studies with an EAE emphasis. The emphasis is a set of required classes and required electives that focus on the disciplines where computer science and art overlap (video games, 3D animated movies, special effects). The emphasis culminates in a year-long capstone class where students work in large interdisciplinary team of 10 to 15 students building a video game from inception to release to the public. In 2014, there are over 300 undergraduate video game programs and the Princeton Review ranked the EAE number 2. We have between 150 and 200 undergrads in the EAE program between the two departments. Building on the successful undergraduate program, the EAE:Master Games Studio was created in 2010. This Master’s program has three tracks: Game Arts, Game Engineering, and Game Production and students receive either a Master of Computing or Master of Fine Arts degree. As of 2014, Princeton Review has ranked the Master’s program 4th out of about 50 master’s programs and it has 77 graduate students spread between the third and fourth cohorts. The incoming class of 2013-2015 will have 60 students.
