On Round-Optimal Zero Knowledge in the Bare Public-Key Model

In Advances in Cryptology – EUROCRYPT 2012 (pp. 153–171).

TL;DR: This paper revisits previous work in the BPK model and points out subtle problems concerning security proofs of concurrent and resettable zero knowledge (cƵƘ and r-protocol, for short) and shows a protocol ΠrƵxt� that is round-optimal and concurrently sound r-Protocol for NP under standard complexity-theoretic assumptions.

Simultaneously Resettable Arguments of Knowledge

In Theory of Cryptography (pp. 530–547).

By: C. Cho, R. Ostrovsky, A. Scafuro* & I. Visconti*

TL;DR: This work shows a construction of a constant-round simultaneously resettable witness-indistinguishable argument of knowledge (simresWIAoK, for short) for any NP language and shows two applications of simresWIoK: the first constant- round simultaneously resetable zero-knowledge argument ofknowledge in the Bare Public-Key Model; and the first simultaneously Resettable identification scheme which follows the knowledge extraction paradigm.

Four Quantitative Metrics Describing Narrative Conflict

In Interactive Storytelling (pp. 18–29).

Achieving the Illusion of Agency

In Interactive Storytelling (pp. 114–125).

TL;DR: A non-branching game that simulates branching choices by providing players with choices followed by immediate textual feedback and hypothesize that this game, where player decisions do not significantly change the course of the game, will maintain the player's sense of agency.

2012 journal article

Enhancing 5th graders’ science content knowledge and self-efficacy through game-based learning

Computers & Education, 59(2), 497–504.

By: A. Meluso n, M. Zheng n, H. Spires n & J. Lester n

author keywords: Collaborative learning; Interactive learning environments; Media and education; Simulation; Pedagogical issues
TL;DR: There were no differences between the two playing conditions; however, when conditions were collapsed, science content learning and self-efficacy significantly increased and future research should focus on the composition of collaboration interaction among game players to assess what types of collaborative tasks may yield positive learning gains.
