  abstract = {Nicht nur Entscheidungen in der Realwelt, sondern auch Entscheidungen in virtuellen Spielwelten sind von einer Vielzahl von Faktoren abhängig. In diesem Beitrag wird eine Nutzerstudie vorgestellt, die den Einfluss rationaler und emotionaler Faktoren bei der Wahl von Spielfigur und Ausrüstungsgegenständen für ein Online-Rollenspiel untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der Studie deuten darauf hin, dass die optische Präsentation und eine klangvolle Namensgebung den Einfluss emotionaler Faktoren bei der Entscheidungsfindung verstärken. Über eine Blickbewegungsanalyse werden die Ergebnisse bewertet und zusätzliche Erkenntnisse abgeleitet},

Als Stimuli wurden zwei unterschiedliche Spiele aus der Echtzeitstrategiespielserie ?Dune“ ausgewählt. Im Vordergrund der Untersuchung stand vor allem die Frage nach der Rolle der Gestaltung eines Interfaces im Prozess der Aufgabenlösung und welchen Einfluss sie auf die Leichtigkeit, Schnelligkeit und Effizienz der Lösung der Aufgaben hat.},

  abstract = {The game industry has long been neglected as a market and research area for knowledge management and semantic technologies. However, as the budgets for game projects are growing and game development is subject to an increasing professionalization and specialization coupled with outsourcing and offshoring, new needs and potentials for continuous knowledge management and the use of semantic technologies emerge. This chapter starts with a description of the current situation and examines typical game development activities and involved parties that could benefit from a continuous knowledge management support. Subsequently, it provides a general framework architecture and implementation examples that show how knowledge management and semantic technologies can be employed to support game development.},
