How do Programmers Forage through Variants? Modeling Hierarchical Foraging and Changelogs

Creator:: Pandya, Bhargav Chandravadan
Abstract:: Complex information environments are often organized as hierarchies. However, computational models of Information Foraging Theory (IFT) have almost entirely ignored this fact. Models and tools for predicting programmer navigations have ignored people’s foraging behavior across hierarchies —called hierarchical foraging. Without modeling hierarchical foraging, our ability to build tools to support...

Rhizome: Towards An Information Centric OS Shell

Creator:: Corbett, Kira
Abstract:: Rhizome is an information-centric model that uses different interaction methods than traditional desktop systems. I built Rhizome with the specific use case of sharing a photo to observe people using the Rhizome operating system (OS) shell and modern OS shells. The purpose of this is to measure the cognitive load...

Gender differences in robot teleoperation

Creator:: Showkat, Dilruba
Abstract:: Gender issues have recently received increased attention in human robot interaction (HRI). Because robots are becoming part of our homes and daily lives, it is important to understand how different groups of people use them. To the best of our knowledge, almost no research has been done that investigates gender...

The sum of its parts : investigating the component pieces of GenderMag

Creator:: Hill, Charles
Abstract:: Previous work introduced the GenderMag method, a software inspection method used to help software creators identify features within their software that are not gender-inclusive. Inclusiveness of software (gender or otherwise) matters because supporting diversity matters—it is well-known that the more diverse a group of problem-solvers, the higher the quality of...

Elucidating Computational Narratives to Facilitate Code Comprehension

Creator:: Chattopadhyay, Souti
Abstract:: Programming is integrated across the workflow of multiple domains where end-user programmers, those who need to program as a means to an end, regularly need to code. In the modern setting of collaborative development, end-user programmers have to interpret the intentions behind existing code to contribute and build solutions to...

A Comparison and Analysis of Selected Holidays in Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and the United States

Creator:: Matyeva, Alima
Abstract:: Through comparison and analysis of selected holidays in countries with significantly different features (Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and the United States), this study aims to gauge the impact of holiday celebrations in influencing cultural values in those countries studied. K. Zygulski’s classification system for holidays was applied to divide the holidays of...

An analysis of concepts of plagiarism as they are applied in computer programming

Creator:: Connely, John Bradley
Abstract:: There has been concern voiced for a number of years about the problem of program plagiarism. A number of SIGCSE Bulletin articles have discussed the issue. However, it is not at all clear as to what behavior we are actually referring, nor to what extent it is occurring. How do...

Variations Foraging

Creator:: Srinivasa Ragavan, Sruti
Abstract:: Information Foraging Theory (IFT) has successfully explained how people seek information in various domains, in turn, informing the design of several tools and information-intensive environments. However, prior research has not explored foraging in the presence of several, very similar variants of the same artifact. Such variants are commonplace in several...

Developing a 2D Cross-section Training Strategy for 3D Volume Segmentation by Analyzing Human Perception and Cognitive Tasks

Creator:: Sanandaji, Anahita
Abstract:: 3D volume segmentation is a fundamental process in many scientific and medical applications. Producing accurate segmentations, in an efficient way, is challenging, in part due to low imaging data quality (e.g., noise and low image resolution), and ambiguity in the data that can only be resolved with higher-level knowledge of...

Newcomers’ Barriers. . . Is That All? An Analysis of Mentors’ and Newcomers’ Barriers in OSS Projects

Creator:: Balali, Sogol
Abstract:: Newcomers’ seamless onboarding is important for open collaboration communi- ties, particularly those that leverage outsiders’ contributions to remain sustainable. Nevertheless, previous work shows that OSS newcomers often face several barriers to contribute, which lead them to lose motivation and even give up on contributing. A well-known way to help newcomers...
