Although numerous automatic (e.g. procedural) content generation algorithms and techniques have been developed over the years, their application in both games and simulations is not widespread. What lacks is a unifying modeling framework that combines these techniques in a usable manner. We propose to develop a new, high-level framework for automatic generation of virtual worlds (e.g. game levels, simulation terrain) that requires intuitive user input and results in a rich 3D terrain model.Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I3.5 [Computer Graphics]: Computational Geometry and Object Modelling I.6.7 [Simulation and Modelling]: Types of Simulation - Gaming I.3.7 [Computer Graphics]: Three-Dimensional Graphics and Realism - Fractals I3.5 [Computer Graphics]: Applications; Keywords: automatic generation of virtual worlds, simulation terrain, game-level design, procedural modelling
