PDP: pen driven programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
Programming is an activity centred primarily around the keyboard which is not necessarily the optimal input device for all users. Little research has taken place into alternative input devices for programming despite huge advances in handwriting and voice recognition for natural language. This project explored using a pen as the primary input device for programming. A variety of different methods for using the pen were designed, developed and evaluated. Existing variable and method declarations were used in the handwriting recognition to improve its accuracy. Additionally code generation techniques were explored to minimize the volume of writing required. These features were then integrated into Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, a commercial IDE, to enable the evaluation of a pen driven environment complete with all the features expected of a modern day IDE.

A Continuous Optimization Model for Partial Digest Problem
The pupose of this paper is modeling of Partial Digest Problem (PDP) as a mathematical programming problem. In this paper we present a new viewpoint of PDP. We formulate the PDP as a continuous optimization problem and develope a method to solve this problem. Finally we constract a linear programming model for the problem with an additional constraint. This later model can be solved by the simp...
متن کاملProperty-Driven Partitioning for Abstraction Refinement
Partitioning and abstraction have been studied extensively both in hardware and in software verification. The abstraction is typically partitioned according to the system design in the case of hardware or the control graph in the case of software. In this work we build on previous work on Property-Driven Partitioning (PDP), a hybrid Symbolic Model-Checking (SMC) technique for ωregular propertie...
متن کاملEffective Partition-Driven Placement with Simultaneous Level Processing and Global Net Views
In this paper we take a fresh look at the partition-driven placement (PDP) paradigm for standard-cell placement for wire-length minimization. The goal is to develop several new algorithms for incorporation into a PDP framework that can rectify the well-known drawbacks of traditional PDP (increasingly localized view of nets with increasing levels of the partitioning tree, min-cut objective, inac...
متن کاملScalable Shared Memory Parallel Programming: Will One Size Fit All?
In recent years, there has been much emphasis on improving the productivity of high-end parallel programmers. Efforts to design very large-scale platforms have focused on global address space machines that are capable of concurrently executing many thousands of threads. As a result, new higher level shared memory programming models have been proposed that are intended to reduce the programming ...
متن کاملEvaluating the impact of coherence protocols on parallel logic programming systems
In this paper we use execution-driven simulation of a scalable multiprocessor to evaluate the performance of the Andorra-I parallel logic programming system under invalidate and update-based protocols. We study a well-known invalidate protocol and two different update-based protocols. Our results show that for our sample logic programs the update-based protocols outperform their invalidatebased...
