Construct your own virtual environment using models! Xin Zhao Advisor: Dr. Jeff Gray Virtual Reality (VR) Computer-based technique; real/imagined environment replication; physical presence simulation; variety of application areas, such as military, healthcare, education. Existing Problems Background knowledge about programming is required for software implementation; large gap between end-users and system designers. VR & MDE Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) Reduce software implementation accidental complexity by focusing on highlevel abstractions in problem-oriented space; promote communication between end-users and designers. Future Work Apply the idea of MDE to VR through Software Product Lines (SPLs); modelbased constraints and testing techniques for VR. CS @ UA
