Generalizing abstractions in form-based visual programming languages : from direct manipulation to static representation

Creator:: Yang, Sherry
Abstract:: We believe concreteness, direct manipulation and responsiveness in a visual programming language increase its usefulness. However, these characteristics present a challenge in generalizing programs for reuse, especially when concrete examples are used as one way of achieving concreteness. In this thesis, we present a technique to solve this problem by...

Guarantees and requirements : implementation and complexity analysis of a new model of types for declarative visual programming languages

Creator:: Chen, Roger Ding-Fu
Abstract:: Djang et al. [1998] introduced a new model of types for declarative visual programming languages (VPLs). Implicit static typing is used in their type model, in order to eliminate the programming mechanisms associated with type declarations, provide immediate visual feedback with respect to type errors and guarantee type safe programs....

Temporal programming in grid-oriented visual programming languages

Creator:: Cao, Nanyu
Abstract:: Specifying varying speeds and temporal relationships is necessary when programming graphical animations, but support for temporal programming has usually been done by adding new language features to a Visual Programming Language (VPL), and these features must be mastered over and above the other aspects of the VPL. However, some researchers...

Similarity inheritance : a new model of inheritance for spreadsheet languages

Creator:: Oregon State University. Dept. of Computer Science, Djang, Rebecca W. (Rebecca Walpole), and Burnett, Margaret, 1949-
Abstract:: Although spreadsheets can be argued to be the most widely-used end-user programming languages today, they are very limited compared to other programming languages, supporting only a few built-in types and offering only primitive support for code reuse. The inheritance mechanisms of object-oriented programming might seem to offer help for the...

Similarity inheritance : a model of inheritance for declarative visual programming languages

Creator:: Djang, Rebecca W. (Rebecca Walpole)
Abstract:: Declarative visual programming languages (VPLs), including spreadsheets, make up a large portion of both research and commercial VPLs. Spreadsheets in particular enjoy a wide audience, including end users. Unfortunately, spreadsheets and most other declarative VPLs still suffer from some of the problems that have been solved in other languages, such...

A visual language for data structures programming

Creator:: Wodtli, Richard, Cull, Paul, 1943-, and Oregon State University. Department of Computer Science
Abstract:: Data structures are more easily understood when they are presented visually rather than textually. We have developed a system, Calypso, to allow the visual definition of data structures programs using pictorial pattern/action pairs in an imperative setting. We present several examples including rebalancing an AVL tree and sorting an array...

A guided tour of Forms/3

Creator:: Oregon State University. Dept. of Computer Science, Hays, Judith G., and Burnett, Margaret, 1949-

Graphical definitions : expanding spreadsheet languages through direct manipulation and gestures

Creator:: Gottfried, Herkimer John
Abstract:: Until now, attempts to extend the one-way constraint evaluation model of the spreadsheet paradigm to support complex objects, such as colored circles or user-defined types, have led to approaches featuring either a direct way of creating objects graphically or strong compatibility with the spreadsheet paradigm, but not both. This inability...
