An Approach for Designing Applications in 3D Virtual Worlds

This paper discusses an approach for designing VW applications using the generative design grammar framework and the generative design agent model as tools. The need for a suitable method and tools for designing VW applications is evidenced by many of the problems that VWs continue to suffer due to poor design. Preliminary analysis suggest that the combination of a method and tools created specifically for designing VW applications provides a robust and suitable approach for designing these types of applications.
