Abstract:
This paper is devoted to a new technology for construction of multimedia
dynamic documents: interactive storytelling in virtual environment.
This is a promising growth area of computer-based technologies which can be
positioned at the interfaces between electronic document management systems,
information systems, computer games, educational programs,
virtual simulators, and interactive models. Basic terms and
concepts of a new subject field are introduced; methods and
technologies of interactive applications in virtual environment
development are considered; principles of construction of interactive
storytelling in virtual environment are described by the example
of the educational system “Virtual Planetarium”.
Keywords:processing and construction of documents, multimedia information systems, systems of virtual environment.
