Abstract

Modeling and simulating of buildings, cities, and metropolis is of huge interest in today’s industries. It allows observing realistic representations in a three-dimensional virtual space as it is used in games and simulations of specific situations. One way to achieve this is procedural modeling, a method that only needs little input to generate complex scenes and structures. In combination with so-called parser generators, an efficient and less time-consuming approach is achieved. The resulting application then gives the user a simple and fast way to generate, model, and design highly complex structures. In this thesis, we first will go into detail about today’s standards and the possibilities which are available at the moment. Then resume with an illustration of two widely used parser generators called ANTLR and Bison and how we replaced the first with the second. Leaving us with a comparison, of their advantages and disadvantages and demonstrating the resulting outcome.
