  • Behaviors and strategies in end-users' collaborative programming

    Creator:
    Liu, Zheng
    Abstract:
    Traditionally, research into end-user programming has focused on how to make programming more accessible to end users conducting the programming activities all by themselves. However, few researchers have considered introducing the concept of collaborative programming into the area of end-user programming, and how the programming environments and devices should be...

  • End-user assertions : propagating their implications

    Creator:
    Summet, Jay W.
    Abstract:
    Spreadsheet languages are the most commonly used end-user programming paradigm, yet spreadsheets commonly contain errors. Research shows that a significant number of spreadsheets (20%-40%) created by end users contain errors. In an attempt to reduce this error rate, this work presents an assertion propagation system for an end-user spreadsheet programming...

  • Extensions to the WYSIWYT methodology

    Creator:
    Ren, Bing
    Abstract:
    Researchers in the Forms/3 group have previously developed the WYSIWYT methodology, exploring a way of systematically testing spreadsheet languages. The previous work presented the WYSIWYT methodology for individual spreadsheet cells, and later partially extended it to large grids in which some cells share the same formula. The Forms/3 spreadsheet language...

  • End-user programming in time : implementation and empirical studies

    Creator:
    Arredondo-Castro, Miguel A.
    Abstract:
    The temporal behavior in applications involving visual data can be critical for the correctness of some programs. Forms/3 allows the user to specify temporal behaviors in an independent way, without introducing extraneous code in the original spreadsheet, whereas some other languages define new language devices specific to time. In this...

  • An integrated testing and fault localization methodology for spreadsheet languages

    Creator:
    Reichwein, James
    Abstract:
    Spreadsheet languages, which include commercial spreadsheets and various research systems, have proven to be flexible tools in many settings. Research shows, however, that spreadsheets often contain faults. This thesis presents an integrated testing and fault localization methodology for spreadsheets. This methodology allows spreadsheet developers to engage in modeless development, testing...
