Description
Summary:A lot of researches haven been done on the interactive storytelling authoring , e.g. by a director agent, or by interactions among a number of character agents. However, it is still difficult to construct the interactive storytelling for novice users, due to a need of various agents development and complex communication among the agents. We propose an agent-based interactive storytelling architecture, namely DIRACT (short of “Direct and Act”). It is composed of numerous atomic DIRACT agents, which are goal oriented and use an unified communication protocol. By removing the difference between the director and character, each DIRACT agent can either direct or act the story in real-time. As a result, it is scalable to story complexity, reusable for inheritance and makes the interactive storytelling authoring much easier
