  • Teacher perceptions of training and pedagogical value of cross-reality and sensor data from smart buildings

    Creator:
    Rowe, Shawn, Riggio, Mariapaola, De Amicis, Raffaele, and Rowe, Susan R.
    Abstract:
    This paper discusses elementary, and secondary (K-12) teachers’ perceptions of cross-reality (XR) tools for data visualization and use of sensor data from the built environment in classroom curricula. Our objective was to explore the use of sensor-informed XR in the built environment and civil engineering (BECE) field to support K-12...

  • Garbage in, garbage out? An empirical look at oracle mistakes by end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Phalgune, Amit
    Abstract:
    End-user programmers, because they are human, make mistakes. However, past research has not considered how visual end-user debugging devices could be designed to ameliorate the effects of mistakes. This paper empirically examines oracle mistakes mistakes users make about which values are right and which are wrong to reveal differences in...

  • Interactive fault localization techniques to empower the debugging efforts of end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Ruthruff, Joseph Ronald
    Abstract:
    End users develop more software than any other group of programmers, using software authoring devices such as e-mail filtering editors, by-demonstration macro builders, and spreadsheet environments. Despite this, there has been only a little research on finding ways to help these programmers with the dependability of the software they create....

  • Wirelessly Powered cm-Scale Sensor for Small Insect Localization Application

    Creator:
    Kang, Jian
    Abstract:
    The prevalence of Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications leads to an increasing focus on the design and optimization of sensor nodes. Battery lifetime and associated costs of battery replacement often limits the long term operation and viability of sensor nodes. RF wireless energy harvesting on the other hand can be appealing since...

  • Managing bug reports in free/open source software (FOSS) communities

    Creator:
    Mohan, Nitin
    Abstract:
    Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) communities often use open bug reporting to allow users to participate by reporting bugs. This practice can lead to more duplicate reports, as inexperienced users can be less rigorous about researching existing bug reports. The purpose of this research is to determine the extent of this...

  • Novel approaches to promoting end-user programming

    Creator:
    Bahmani, Faezeh
    Abstract:
    End-user programming has become widespread. The increasing size of this population and the prevalence of barriers that they face has sparked the development of approaches that promote end-user programing by helping them overcome barriers and teaching them programming. Despite the fact that these approaches have done well in achieving those...

  • Eliciting informal specifications from scientific modelers for evaluation and debugging

    Creator:
    Bogart, Christopher
    Abstract:
    Professional software engineers have an arsenal of techniques such as unit testing and assertions to check their specifications, but these techniques require tools, motivation, experience and training that programmers without professional software engineering training may not have. As a result, professionals in other fields, such as scientific modelers, face greater...

  • Effects of interruption-style on end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Robertson, T. J. (Thomas James)
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents the results of two studies that investigate the question of what interruption-styles are most appropriate for end-user programmers who are debugging programs. In the studies, end-user programmers are presented with surprises that encourage them to investigate, use, and learn about debugging devices in their programming environment. We...

  • Supporting end-user debugging

    Creator:
    Kissinger, Cory
    Abstract:
    Although researchers have begun to explicitly support end-user programmers’ debugging by providing information to help them find bugs, there is little research addressing the right content to communicate to these users. The specific semantic content of these debugging communications matters because, if the users are not actually seeking the information...

  • Explaining debugging strategies to end-user programmers

    Creator:
    Subrahmaniyan, Neeraja
    Abstract:
    There has been little research into how end-user programming environments can provide explanations that could fill a critical information gap for end-user debuggers – help with debugging strategy. To address this need, we designed and prototyped a video-based approach for explaining debugging strategy, and accompanied it with a text-only approach....
