Handbook of Digital Games and Entertainment Technologies. 2017. 415-428. This chapter provides some paradigms of interaction making use of illustrations produced from fully administered interactive storytelling systems. Also, it proposes a factual and verifiable classification of interaction modes established from the nature of user involvement. This chapter provides a context for the necessity for multimodal interaction with a story and also emphasize on the user’s intervention influence on story generation dynamics. Importantly, the essentials of effective interaction during interactive storytelling processes have also been demonstrated by traditional multimodal interaction. The authors have also discussed the capability of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) in helping and supporting interactive storytelling. Frost, Anthony and Ralph Yarrow.

Galea, E. R., S. J. Deere, C. G. Hopkin and H. Xie. "Evacuation response behaviour of occupants in a large theatre during a live performance." Fire and Materials, 41.5 (2017): 467-492. This paper provides the outcomes of unannounced theatre evacuation which involved one thousand and two hundred occupants. This happened in a performance which performed in Marlowe theatre. The authors explain the response behavior and the response time. This work used a log-normal distribution which is associated with the occupants’ geometrical location. The findings indicated that response time increased with increase in seat distance from the exit. The authors have used the findings of this study to propose a methodology which should be used when distributing response time in a theatre to help in evacuation simulation applications.
