  • Update programming -- a safe approach to software maintenance

    Creator:
    Ren, Deling
    Abstract:
    Software maintenance accounts for a large portion of the software development cost, particularly the process of updating programs either to adapt for requirement change or to enhance design or efficiency. Currently, program updates are generally performed manually by programmers using text editors. This is an unreliable method because syntax and...

  • Leveraging Generated Tests

    Creator:
    Alipour, Mohammad Amin
    Abstract:
    The main goal of automated test generation is to improve the reliability of a program by exposing faults to developers. To this end, testing should cover the largest possible portion of the program given a test budget (i.e., time and resources) as frequently as possible. Coverage of a program entity...

  • ThermoSolver : an integrated educational thermodynamics software program

    Creator:
    Barnes, Connelly S.
    Abstract:
    ThermoSolver is an educational thermodynamics software program designed to be both easy to use and useful in that it permits the user to make nontrivial chemical engineering thermodynamic calculations. The software program accompanies the textbook Engineering and Chemical Thermodynamics by Milo Koretsky, and is available for free download from the...

  • Involving older adults in the design and development of free/open source software

    Creator:
    Davidson, Jennifer L.
    Abstract:
    An age-wave is upon us where many older adults are reaching retirement. Technically experienced older adults have skills that could be directly applied to free/open source software (FOSS) communities, such as project management, programming, and/or knowledge of a rapidly growing end-user population. FOSS is a widely popular, low-cost way to...

  • Applications of an Agent-Based Approach to Automated Structure Design

    Creator:
    Kiff, Robin E.
    Abstract:
    This thesis details the applications of a new method of agent-based structure synthesis. The goal of this research is to create structures that meet a structural goal within a simulated physics environment. The method proposed works as an iterative process of changing the structure, evaluating the new structure and using...

  • Visualization in environmental science

    Creator:
    Winters, Kirsten M.
    Abstract:
    The VISualization of Terrestrial and Aquatic Systems (VISTAS) software development project began with the proposition that visualization would increase the ability of scientists to explore and communicate their data, especially complex datasets that span multiple spatial and temporal scales. A case study of VISTAS articulates how and why scientists intend...

  • Computer aided tolerance analysis and process selection for AutoCAD

    Creator:
    Pamulapati, Sairam V.
    Abstract:
    The fundamental objective of a design engineer in performing tolerance technology is to transform functional requirements into tolerances on individual parts based on existing data and algorithms for design tolerance analysis and synthesis. The transformation of functional requirements into tolerances must also consider the existing process capabilities and manufacturing costs...

  • Hardware realization for Advanced Encryption Standard key generation

    Creator:
    Yang, Wen-Chun
    Abstract:
    Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is one of the secret key algorithms used in Cryptography. It is applied in a variety of applications including smart cards, internet web servers, automated teller machines (ATMs), etc. Both hardware and software implementations are taken into consideration while addressing AES algorithms. In addition to reaching...

  • Studies to inform a visual language for authoring interactive exercise prescriptions

    Creator:
    Dodge, Jonathan E.
    Abstract:
    Communicating dynamic motion content, such as exercise, with a static medium, such as paper, is difficult. The technology exists for presenting 3D animated exercise content to patients; however, the tools for allowing exercise domain experts to effectively author the content do not exist. We conducted two formative studies with exercise...

  • Prediction of academic achievement for college computer science majors in the Republic of China

    Creator:
    Fan, Tai-Sheng
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research was to determine whether student academic achievement in college computer science programs in the Republic of China (ROC) could be predicted by factors reported to be effective in US studies. The relationship between these factors and course performance in computer science programs was examined. Gender...
