Title
Challenges for Cloud-Based Simulation Games
Abstract
As business applications such as highly integrated Enterprise Resource Planning systems (ERP) become more complex, system-integrated business simulation games are vital for educating tomorrow's white collar work force. Especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) cloud-based business applications are a serious alternative. The Education as a Service (EaaS) approach gets more and more into the focus, hence. In order to yield a fruitful scientific dispute on the matter a cloud-based simulation game design is proposed in this paper. That design also identifies challenges implementing and operating a cloud-based simulation game. It reveals issues such as the composition of the simulation model and its relation to the host system as well as communication matters (change of interfaces) and the coordination between customer, host system and the simulation itself. Furthermore, the choice of the right service and deployment model affects the design of the simulation game.
