Computer science students can help to solve problems of multiplayer mobile games

Islas Sedano, C., Kuts, E. and Sutinen, E.

This study analyzes the possibility of involving Computer Science students in multiplayer mobile game development processes and using their knowledge to solve collaboration problems. We describe the importance of Computer Science as one of the Computing disciplines, and provide a summary of its knowledge areas according to their ability to help solve collaboration problems. This analysis is based on the Bachelor's degree study program at the University of Joensuu, Finland. Research shows that it is highly possible to involve students from their first year of study in solving collaboration problems of multiplayer mobile games.
