Modeling Emotion Oriented Approach through Agent-Oriented Approach

eLearning is introduced to promote self-learning anytime and anyway. To date, various components have been added into an eLearning platform to produce an interactive and engaging eLearning platform. Among an interest, component is embedded emotion into the eLearning system. While emotion is paying much attention nowadays, there is lacking a systematic way to model emotion-based eLearning. Without the systematic approach, it is hard to debug, design and develop an emotion-based e-learning system. This paper introduces emotion goals through the agent-oriented approach. Besides, we demonstrate how to design an emotion-based quiz master as an embedded emotion element for the eLearning system through the proposed modeling approach. This thesis suggests a standardized way to model an emotion-oriented application through Agent-Oriented Modelling (AOM). The AOM is extended to guide the elicitation, analysis, design and implementation of an emotion-oriented application, a kind of interactive application. With the emotion model, it can serve as a guide to design, redesign, discuss the emotional elements among the software development team. This is important for better debugging and project management, especially for emotion, led applications

Agent Oriented Methodology for Crime Modelling and Simulation

Agent-oriented methodology (AOM) is a comprehensive and unified agent methodology for agent-oriented software development. The potential of Agent Oriented Methodology has been revealed in domains like collaborative technology, video surveillance, and economics. However, it has not been explored in crime modelling and simulation. Although AOM is claimed to be able to cope with a complex system development, it is still not yet determined up to what extent this may be true. Therefore, it is vital to investigate to validate this methodology. This paper investigates the adoption of AOM in crime modeling and simulation. The novelty of this paper is to introduce a systematic way to model crime simulation. Through the AOM simulation, it is proven that the AOM can model the complex system in crime domain with various outcomes which supported a few existing research theories such as routine activity theory. AOM can provide a wider research platform which is useful for translating theories and micro-level behavior into models and simulation that can be studied, shared, tested and enhanced

Sustainability Analysis of Bintulu Hospital Information System Through e3value and i* Modeling

As a pivotal supporting arm and the driving force to ensure better healthcare services, the Hospital Information System (HIS) provides the backbone support for efficiently managing the hospital's operations and services. Against the backdrop of the current economic situation and the uncertainties in the grim global economic outlook, it is crucial to optimize the cost of the information system while meeting the objectives. This paper contributes to introducing a technique to optimize the public Hospital Information System funding in Malaysia. It explores the prolonged financial viability of the HIS in Bintulu, East Malaysia, through e3Value methodology. The e3value methodology can evaluate the financial sustainability of HIS projects and can serve as a tool for early requirement analysis on future HIS deployment. From the e3value model, it is interesting to discover that actors contribute positive revenue to the hospital, allowing the hospital to generate more profit, which benefits the Government. However, actors that give negative revenue might affect future financial status. Based on the result, the recommendations presented in this paper are very crucial to ensure the continued financial sustainability of HIS. The e3value model offers early requirement study analysis and structured analysis with systematic approaches compared to the existing method. Although the work can measure the financial sustainability of the HIS, other sustainability dimensions like technological sustainability, environmental sustainability and social sustainability are yet to be explored and worth investigating in the future

A Multi-Agent Simulation Evacuation Model Using The Social Force Model: A Large Room Simulation Study

Research on evacuation simulation has received significant attention over the past few decades. Disasters, whether they were caused by nature or by humans, which claimed lives were also the impetus for the establishment of various evacuation studies. Numerous research points to the possibility of simulating an evacuation utilizing the Social Force Model (SFM) and a leading person or leader, but without using the multi-agent architecture. Within the scope of this article, the multi-agent architecture for crowd steering that we suggest will be investigated. The architecture will utilize a model known as the Social Force Model to figure out how evacuees will move around the area. After this step, the model is simulated in NetLogo to determine whether the architecture can model the evacuation scenario. A simulation test is carried out for us to investigate the degree to which the behavior of the original SFM and the message-passing model is comparable to one another. The result demonstrates that the proposed architecture can simulate the evacuation of pedestrians. In addition, the simulation model can simulate utilizing the grouping strategy as well as the no grouping technique. The findings also showed that the model can capture many evacuation patterns, such as an arch-shaped pattern at the opening of the exit
