At British Airways, we have found during several large OO projects documented using the UML that non-technical end-users, managers and business domain experts find it difficult to understand UML visual models. This leads to problems in requirement capture and review. To solve this problem, we have developed the technique of Literate Modelling. Literate Models are UML diagrams that are embedded ...

I have been using the WEB style of Literate Programming since my first efforts to port TEX to the Data General AOS system. When I looked back at those efforts, the work in porting drivers that were not written in WEB and the writing of drivers in WEB (based upon DVITYPE, of course), the value of this method of programming became evident. I have concentrated my research (and some teaching) effor...

Literate programming has attracted some interest in the functional programming community. This paper presents a prettyprinting algorithm used in a literate programming tool for the functional language Concurrent Clean, and discusses some of the issues involved in prettyprinting layout based languages. 1 Literate programming This section introduces the concept of literate programming for those w...

This research addresses a significant gap in our understanding of low literate behavior in online search. We explore how both lowand high-literate online consumers make decisions at the point of purchase in an online shopping task. We measured percentage fixation duration of AOIs during decision-making on four search engine results page (SERP) tasks. Qualitative and quantitative results combine...

The current paper examines the Native American people's identity, especially main female character's cultural identity in short story entitled Search Engine. Sherman Alexie, author of story, is a writer who harnesses Indian as one topics. presented character, Corliss, shows challenges stereotypes girls. For that reason, aims at exploring new woman’s represented study applies feminist literary c...

Standardized tests are often used to test students as they progress in the formal education system. These tests are widely available and measurable with clear evaluation procedures and metrics. Hence, these can serve as good tests for AI. We propose approaches for solving some of these tests. We broadly categorize these tests into two categories: open domain question answering tests such as rea...

Knuth’s Literate Programming system allows an author to design and describe a program hierarchically according to the method of stepwise refinement. The result is source code, which can be read sequentially like a book, section after section. This helps when reading printed source code, but on screen source code is read rather selectively like an encyclopedia. There the programmer wants a syste...

An engine is a programming language abstraction that implements timed preemption. Engines form a useful mechanism where bounded computation is needed. We describe an implementation of engines in Common Lisp and illustrate its functionality. We conclude with a discussion on how engines are being used in an ongoing project about goal-driven explanation. This paper is also an exercise in writing a...
