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...

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....

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...

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...

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...
