jTutors: A Web-Based Tutoring System for Java APIs

Creator:: Dahotre, Aniket
Abstract:: For building robust software applications, it is important for the software engineer to make efficient use of the available building blocks. Learning the basic language constructs is only the first step in this process. It is becoming increasingly important for software engineers, especially students, to get acquainted with the available...

Scratch Explorer : a tool for assisting end-user program comprehension of animation scripts

Creator:: Zhang, Yan
Abstract:: Visual programming languages (VPLs) have been widely used to support end-user programming. However, end users are still not able to reuse code as actively as professional programmers, even when given abundant resources such as a large VPL program repository. One reason may be that current VPL development environments lack features...

Enhancing intelligent API tutors with information about how APIs are used in practice

Creator:: Krishnamoorthy, Vasanth
Abstract:: Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) enable software developers to utilize and create functionality that would otherwise take a lot of time and effort to build from scratch. Consequently, an essential part of software engineering training is for students to learn how to use APIs effectively. The existing jTutors system enables an...

Detecting bad smells in spreadsheets

Creator:: Asavametha, Atipol
Abstract:: Spreadsheets are a widely used end-user programming tool. Field audits have found that 80-90% of spreadsheets created by end users contain textual and formula errors in spreadsheets. Such errors may have severe negative consequences for users in terms of productivity, credibility, or profits. To solve the problem of spreadsheet errors,...

Towards helping end-user programmers’ information foraging by manipulating information features in a patch

Creator:: Athreya, Balaji
Abstract:: Software maintenance tasks often require finding information within existing code, which is time-consuming and difficult even for professional programmers. For example, programmers may need to know what code implements certain functionality or what is the purpose of certain code. In response, researchers have developed tools to help programmers find information...

Evaluation of collaborative filtering and content based filtering recommenders in jTutors (an online intelligent tutoring system)

Creator:: Appasamy, Bharatwaj
Abstract:: Software engineers often need help with discovering and learning how to use APIs. For example, software engineers who are starting to learn Java, and they want to implement a certain feature in a program, they might want to reuse existing APIs in order to save time versus rewriting it themselves...

Mapping Software Development Tool Design to Information Foraging Theory

Creator:: Nabi, Md Tahmid-un
Abstract:: The design of programming tools is slow and costly. To ease this process, we have developed a design pattern catalog aimed at providing guidance about how to design tools for developers. This guidance is grounded in Information Foraging Theory (IFT), which empirical studies have shown to be useful for understanding...

End-user programming tool for analyzing food composition data from Automated Multiple-Pass Method (AMPM) food surveys and building a comprehensive food profile

Creator:: Vijay, Catharina
Abstract:: Surveys are often used in health studies to collect data about participants for scientific research. An increasing number of health scientists are turning to online data collection methods because they are less costly and can reach a large diverse population quickly. Online surveys also make it easy to track and...

Features for debugging in a visual dataflow environment for end-user programmers

Creator:: Ganesan, Laxmi
Abstract:: Debugging, an integral part of software development, is difficult for end-user programmers, especially in the case of complex programs. The process of isolating errors is time consuming without the help of debugging support provided by the tool. For example, the visual programming tool LondonTube supports creation of custom mobile-cloud-web applications,...

Visualizing the Daily Physical Activities and Nutrition Information of High School Athletes in WAVE~Ripples for Change: Obesity Prevention in Active Youth

Creator:: Patel, Rahul
Abstract:: Uploading everyday information about food intake, sleep, number of steps and then generating consolidated peer visual reports for participants in large-scale health studies, often divided into multiple treatment groups, can be challenging. This challenge is even bigger if subjects are young teenagers between the age of 14-19 active in sports,...
