Welcome…

This is the Windows to VCC communication section for Stratego2go. More specifically "Windows" refers to the Windows NT client application (Window Dressing) and "VCC" refers to the Stratego2Go model running in the VCC application.

Run the interactive demonstration in the Windows Application section to see my part in action.

Collaborations

This section collaborates with two other modules, namely Andrews input module and Alexs graphics module.

My Responsibilities

The Window Dressing Application

I am responsible for writing the 'thin' Windows NT client that communicates with VCC.

I am responsible for writing the 'thin' Windows NT client that communicates with VCC.
( "thin" refers to the amount of processing the client does on top of that of VCCs. This will be discussed further in the Windows Application section.)

VCC provides no facilities for real-time interaction with the simulation, without this client all input would have to be scripted and the output would consist of VCC analysis information.

I am responsible for the organisation of the projects website. I've provided a structure for the site and produced a Flash banner object and template html page for the (optional) use in each member's section.
