  • An experimental investigation of the cloze procedure as a measure of program understanding

    Creator:
    Ullrich, James R.
    Abstract:
    Previous research in program understanding has been hampered by the lack of an easy tool to measure the degree of that understanding. The cloze procedure, suggested by Cook, Bregar, and Foote (1984) was an attempt to find a simple, reliable, and valid measure of program understanding. In this procedure, tokens...

  • Code generation in the Oregon speedcode universe

    Creator:
    Armstrong, James R. (James Russel)
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this project was to create a code generating software tool, which is one section of the Oregon SpeedCode Universe. The Code Generator automatically generates compilable source code to form working Macintosh applications. This source code provides a prototype for the actual final application. This is done with...

  • Using signaling to aid computer program comprehension

    Creator:
    Gellenbeck, Edward M.
    Abstract:
    Guidelines for using style to improve computer program comprehension have often been proposed without empirical testing. This thesis reports on the results of three controlled experiments that investigated ways program style may be used to aid comprehension of source code listings. Experiments 1 and 2 were conducted using advanced computer...

  • Path-based dynamic impact analysis

    Creator:
    Law, James (James Bruce)
    Abstract:
    Successful software systems evolve over their lifetimes through the cumulative changes made by software maintainers. As software evolves, the problems resulting from software change worsen, exacerbated by increased system size and complexity, lack of program understanding, amount of effort required to make changes, and number of personnel involved. Experience shows...

  • A C source code browsing system

    Creator:
    Steinkamp, James M.
    Abstract:
    A project is described wherein a source code browser was implemented based upon tasks performed by software engineers looking for source code modules with only UNIX utilities. These tasks were discovered by observing the actions of software engineers looking for code modules in a library, The success of the implementation...

  • TextGen : an exemplary generator for generative programming

    Creator:
    Maki, Alec
    Abstract:
    Generative programming is a paradigm that seeks to automate the manufacture of software products the same way other industries automated the manufacture of consumer, electric, and mechanical products. I examine how meta-programming fits into the context of generative programming and, along the way, expose theoretic and taxonomic deficiencies. In some...

  • A software package for an intelligent graphic display terminal

    Creator:
    Nelson, Cecil L.
    Abstract:
    A cost reduction analysis is performed by coordinating the exchange of LANDSAT (formerly ERTS) data between a CDC 3300 and a PDP8/L minicomputer. The LANDSAT data is displayed on a 4002 Tektronix terminal by means of a grayscale output. Large amounts of data and number manipulation are processed in the...

  • Algorithms for string matching with applications in molecular biology

    Creator:
    Holloway, James Lee
    Abstract:
    As the volume of genetic sequence data increases due to improved sequencing techniques and increased interest, the computational tools available to analyze the data are becoming inadequate. This thesis seeks to improve a few of the computational methods available to access and analyze data in the genetic sequence databases. The...

  • Design and implementation of a simplified Kalman filter for an ocean circulation model

    Creator:
    Yao, Yunda
    Abstract:
    A Kalman filter was developed to recover information on short period variations of ocean circulation from the satellite altimeter signals for the North Pacific Ocean. The ocean circulation at each grid point is specified by three variables: sea level height h, zonal velocity u, and meridional velocity v. In our...
