Exception handling in the visual programming language Forms/3

Creator:: van Zee, Pieter J.
Abstract:: Exception handling is a general purpose tool found in many modern programming language, but most work to date is based on textual languages. We present an approach to exception handling in a new context, the visual programming language Forms/3. The visual nature of Forms/3 supports an effective approach to exception...

Inclusive Software Design and Its Methods for Beyond-WIMP User Interfaces

Creator:: Fallatah, Abrar
Abstract:: While digital inclusivity researchers and software practitioners have been trying to address exclusion biases in Windows, Icons, Menus, and Pointers (WIMP) user interfaces (UIs) for a long time, little has been done to investigate if and how inclusive software design and its methods that have been devised for WIMP UIs...

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...

Mental Models of Mere Mortals with Explanations of Reinforcement Learning

Creator:: Anderson, Andrew A.
Abstract:: How should reinforcement learning (RL) agents explain themselves to humans not trained in AI? To gain insights into this question, we conducted a 124 participant, four-treatment experiment to compare participants’ mental models of an RL agent in the context of a simple Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game. The four treatments isolated...

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...

The InclusiveMag Method: A Start Towards More Inclusive Software for Diverse Populations

Creator:: Mendez, Christopher
Abstract:: How can software practitioners assess whether their software supports diverse users? Although there are empirical processes that can be used to find “inclusivity bugs” piecemeal, what is often needed is a systematic inspection method to assess software’s support for diverse populations. To help fill this gap, this thesis introduces InclusiveMag,...

The expressive power and declarative attributes of exception handling in Forms/3

Creator:: Agrawal, Anurag
Abstract:: Exception handling is a programming language feature that can help increase the reliability of programs. However, not much work has been done on exception handling in visual programming languages. We present an approach for improving the exception handling mechanism in Forms/3, a declarative visual programming language based on the spreadsheet...

Explanations and Processes to Enable Humans to Assess AI with Respect to Manipulable Properties

Creator:: Dodge, Jonathan E.
Abstract:: Assessing AI systems is difficult. Humans rely on AI systems in increasing ways, both visible and invisible, meaning a variety of stakeholders need a variety of assessment tools (e.g., a professional auditor, a developer, and an end user all have different needs). We posit that it is possible to provide...

How does AAR/AI Support Problem Solvers with Diverse Behaviors and Cognitive Styles?

Creator:: Dikkala, Rupika
Abstract:: "What’s wrong with this AI?" Explainable AI (XAI) researchers are moving beyond explaining an AI’s actions, to helping users detect an AI’s failures. However this detection may not be enough—for actionability, we often need to pinpoint which part failed. We investigate how AAR/AI, a structured assessment process, supports users with...

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....
