NetsBlox is a visual blocks-based programming language extending Snap! with a few carefully selected abstractions to support distributed programming. In this paper, we argue that with the help of NetsBlox, some of the fundamental concepts of computer networking can be included in the high school computer science curriculum. Specifically, we describe a set of curricular units that would fit nicely...
NetsBlox is a visual blocks-based programming language that supports distributed programming. NetsBlox includes Remote Procedure Calls (RPC) that provide access to a set of online scientific data sources such as maps, weather, earthquakes, astronomy imagery, air pollution, etc. This demonstration shows how to use these RPCs to create engaging science projects.
The paper introduces a visual programming language and corresponding web- and cloud-based development environment called NetsBlox. NetsBlox is an extension of Snap! and it builds upon its visual formalism as well as its open source code base. NetsBlox adds distributed programming capabilities to Snap! by introducing two simple abstractions: messages and NetsBlox services. Messages containing data...
