ElectroCodeoGram: An Environment for Studying Programming
Research on programming behaviour requires the analysis of a huge amount of observational data. It would be helpful to have tool support in collecting and summarizing these data containing basic programming events. This paper introduces ElectroCodeoGram (ECG), a modular framework consisting of event collectors (called sensors), pattern recognizers (called modules), and other infrastructure to o...
متن کاملStudying the human-computer-terminology interface.
OBJECTIVE To explore the use of an observational, cognitive-based approach for differentiating between successful, suboptimal, and failed entry of coded data by clinicians in actual practice, and to detect whether causes for unsuccessful attempts to capture true intended meaning were due to terminology content, terminology representation, or user interface problems. DESIGN Observational study...
متن کاملStudying Evolution with Self-Replicating Computer Programs
A critical discussion is presented on the use of self-replicating program systems as tools for the formulation of generalised theories of evolution. Results generated by such systems must be treated with caution, but, if used properly, they can ooer us unprecedented opportunities for empirical , comparative studies. A new system called Cosmos is introduced, which is based upon Ray's Tierra 15]....
متن کاملStudying the Nedap/Groenendaal ES3B voting computer
The Nedap/Groenendaal ES3B voting computer is being used by 90% of the Dutch voters. With very minor modifications, the same computer is also being used in parts of Germany and France. In Ireland the use of this machine is currently on hold after significant doubts were raised concerning its suitability for elections. This paper details how we installed new software in Nedap ES3B voting compute...
متن کاملStudying scientific discovery by computer simulation.
BACON is a computer program that simulates some of the important processes of scientific discovery. When provided with data about temperatures before and after two substances are brought into contact, the program infers the concept of specific heat and arrives at Black's law of temperature equilibrium. Comparison of BACON's discovery methods with historical records of Black's work casts light o...
