Abstract: This paper proposes the development of a semi-qualitative simulation framework for virtual environments. Its purpose is to simulate the behavior of complex devices and their interaction with virtual humans. We present an object-oriented semi-qualitative language to model such system. While our use of hierarchical finite state machines allows for the development of complex components, we retain the expressiveness of the compositional modeling used in qualitative physics. Using high level... (Update)
