JabRef: reference manager for Latex

JabRef website

Jabref is an opensource reference manager that can be linked to latex very easily.

It saves as .bib directly, which can be used in the latex directly. (i meet problem to use Endnote to link to latex.)

There is a need for me to rename all the labels for the citations in my thesis, in a more controllable or organised way.

And it can connect with winEdt very well.

Agent-based interactive storytelling

different from character-based interactive storytelling, or author-centered IS, ABIS considers each role in the storytelling as an agent, e.g. director, characters, user.

an agent is intelligent, automous, and adaptive to changes, which provides an engaging interactive storytelling: dynamic, relevant, rational etc.

the agent is named as DirActU, which is a linkage among director, actor as well as the player.

in our view, interactive storytelling system is a multi-agent system, the target is to reach an interesting interacive storytelling.

Good thing to consider as agent: easy to extend (inserting more relevant agents into the system.), leverage the load to agents, different levels of communications.
