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...

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...
