The teaching and learning process of memory hierarchy is a not simple task. Many topics studied in theory may discourage learning due to its complexity. Resources have been developed to improve learning experiences, and learning objects are resources worth taking into account. This paper presents a learning object called Amnesia, which aims to facilitate the knowledge construction by simulating the...
In software development the code often must comply to a number of non-functional requirements, like architectural requirements. These requirements are often communicated and verified by writing guidelines and creating reports of the non-compliance. This way of communicating and verifying non-functional requirements is very costly since all developers needs to understand all requirements. It is also...
In this paper, we propose an architecture of Project-Based Learning Management System (PBLMS). These systems offer learners indicators to support self-regulation in PBL. Indeed, when students are engaged in learning processes with LMS, they are supposed to be autonomous to find information or to organize their activities. Indeed, most of time, few tools are proposed to help them. Our research focuses...
Thanks to the attractions of the multimedia, namely interactivity and multimodality, it seems that web sites and CD-ROMs have the capacity to transmit heritage information to the public. But ultimately they miss real cognitive or educational purposes. Consequently, this article suggests enriching the conception of educational products, combining the potential of video games with the methods of representation...
Multi-Core Digital Signal Processors (MC-DSPs) often suffer from limited memory bandwidth and long access latency caused by shared-memory structures. Data forwarding is an efficient data speculation technique to hide memory access latencies. This paper proposes a new Data Stream Clustered Forwarding (DSCF) technique for MC-DSPs in shared-memory structures. DSCF combines data streams forwarding operations...
This paper provides an overview of work being done in the EntryPoint project, which is examining the first course work in computing degrees. A key goal of this project is to move away from the traditional CS1/CS2 programming courses as the start of a computing degree. In addition, the project team is looking at how these ideas might be extended to BSSE degree programs. As such, this paper will discuss...
