  • Form Systems for Database User Interface: 4th Pimension vs. Oracle (Macintosh Version)

    Creator:
    Cooper, Karen
    Abstract:
    Forms are the most common means of interacting with databases. Database develop1;11ent products offer differing capabilities for creating forms. We will compare the form design features available using 4th Dimension and Oracle database products. These two products have the most complete set of features compared to other micro computer database...

  • SPEAR : Superlative Plagiarism Explorer And Reporter

    Creator:
    Pavithran, Siddharth
    Abstract:
    In this project, we have investigated three different techniques for plagiarism detection and have compared its effectiveness against that of an unaided human grader. The techniques investigated were word frequency analysis, sentence inclusion analysis and sub string inclusion analysis. We found that a combination of word frequency analysis and sub...

  • A prototype intelligent prettyprinter

    Creator:
    Winter, Kirt Alan
    Abstract:
    Prettyprinters are software tools that format program source code so that it conforms to certain standards of consistency and hence improves readability. Traditionally, these standards were fixed for a particular prettyprinter as indicated by a literature survey, with very little or no supporting evidence that the formatting style improves readability....

  • Register spilling in a compiler for architectures with multiple identical functional units

    Creator:
    Goodman, Joseph M.
    Abstract:
    A good code generator must effectively utilize the registers provided by the target architecture. Although a number of register allocation techniques exist, few address the issues involved in multiple register banks and no known techniques exist for effectively using register banks of the same type that are associated with multiple...

  • A taxonomic analysis of typographic programming style

    Creator:
    Oman, Paul W.
    Abstract:
    Program comprehension is important in program testing, debugging, and maintenance. Programming style impacts program understanding. However, there has not been any systematic identification of individual style factors and their contribution to program comprehension. In this thesis we present a programming style taxonomy composed of three classes: typographic (program layout and...

  • Enabling Graceful Software Upgrades in Distributed Systems

    Creator:
    Gotlur Muralidhar, Hima
    Abstract:
    In today’s world, we are highly dependent on software systems together with devices for almost every task in our day to day life. Software system upgrades are released whenever it is necessary to accommodate the ever-changing user’s needs. The devices we use to run the software systems might be of...

  • Just enough die-level functional test : optimizing IC test via machine learning and decision theory

    Creator:
    Fountain, Tony R.
    Abstract:
    This research explores the hypothesis that methods from decision theory and machine learning can be combined to provide practical solutions to current manufacturing control problems. This hypothesis is explored by developing an integrated approach to solving one manufacturing problem - the optimization of die-level functional test. An integrated circuit (IC)...

  • Pedagogical Content Knowledge for Teaching Inclusive Design

    Creator:
    Oleson, Alannah L.
    Abstract:
    Inclusive design is important in today's software industry, but there is little research about how to teach it. In collaboration with 9 teacher-researchers across 8 U.S. universities and more than 400 computer and information science students, we embarked upon an Action Research investigation to gather insights into the pedagogical content...

  • Effectiveness of index size reduction techniques

    Creator:
    Jacobson, Bryan L.
    Abstract:
    Index size savings from three techniques are measured. The three techniques are: 1) eliminating common, low information words found in a "stop list" (such as: of, the, at, etc.), 2) truncating terms by eliminating word stems (such as: -s, -ed, -ing, etc.), and 3) simple data compression. Savings are measured...

    Creator:
    Dragunov, Anton N.
    Abstract:
    Current approaches to presentation of mathematics (on paper or in electronic format have usability drawbacks that make learning and appreciation of mathematics challenging and often frustrating. In a framework of a big research project of identifying new approaches to communicating mathematical ideas in a highly usable and effective manner, we...
