Arduino has become one of the most popular platforms for building electronic projects, especially among novices. In the last years countless tools, environments, and programming languages have been developed to support Arduino. One of these is Physical Etoys, a visual programming platform for robots developed by the authors. Physical Etoys supports compiling programs into the arduino. For this to work, a Smalltalk to C++ translator has been built. Although it has been very useful, this translator has brought a new set of issues. In this paper we will discuss some of these problems and how we decided to overcome them by developing a simple virtual machine that will be used as the base for the new Physical Etoys.

In this work, we evaluate several emerging parallel programming models: Kokkos, RAJA, OpenACC, and OpenMP 4.0, against the mature CUDA and OpenCL APIs. Each model has been used to port Tealeaf, a miniature proxy application, or mini app, that solves the heat conduction equation and belongs to the Mantevo Project. We find that the best performance is achieved with architecture-specific implementations but that, in many cases, the performance portable models are able to solve the same problems to within a 5% to 30% performance penalty. While the models expose varying levels of complexity to the developer, they all achieve reasonable performance withthis application. As such, if this small performance penalty is permissible for a problem domain, we believe that productivity and development complexity can be considered the major differentiators when choosing a modern parallel programming model to develop applications like Tealeaf.

In this paper, we started to analyse the impact of individual cognitive processes on early programming learning and performances. In particular, we focused our attention on divergent thinking, creative personality and brain type, analysed within the theoretical framework of the Empathizing-Systemizing (E-S) theory. We involved a sample of students in the first year of a bachelor curriculum in Applied Mathematics at the University of Verona. We used this sample to analyse the relations between cognitive styles and programming attitudes and performances. We also explored sex differences, concerning boththe level of each measure and these relations.

Autonomic Computing has recently contributed to the development of self-manageable Cloud services. It provides means to free Cloud administrators of the burden of manually managing varying-demand services while enforcing Service Level Agreements (SLAs). However, designing Autonomic Managers (AMs) that take into account services' runtime properties so as to provide SLA guarantees without the proper tooling support may quickly become a non-trivial, fastidious and error-prone task as systems size grows. In fact, in order to achieve well-tuned AMs, administrators need to take into consideration the specificities of each managed service as well as its dependencies on underlying services (e.g., a Sofware-as-a-Service that depends on a Platform/Infrastructure-as-a-Service). We advocate that Cloud services, regardless of the layer, may share the same consumer/provider-based abstract model. From that model we can derive a unique and generic AM that can be used to manage any XaaS service defined withthat model. this paper proposes such an abstract (although extensible) model along with a generic constraint-based AM that reasons on abstract concepts, service dependencies as well as SLA constraints in order to find the optimal configuration for the modeled XaaS. the genericity of our approach are showed and discussed through two motivating examples and a qualitative experiment has been carried out in order to show the approache's applicability as well as to point out and discuss its limitations.

Plagiarism is one of the most common problem that has been increasing in the field of higher education. Many research papers have highlighted the issue of plagiarism in context to its detection and source that is often obtained from the text books and online sources, there is a variety of easy ways for students to copy others' work. Coding style can be used to detect source code plagiarism because it relates to programmer personality but does not affect the logic of a program, thus offering a way to differentiate between different code authors. the immediate objective of this paper is to identify whether a data set consisting of student programming assignments is rich enough to apply coding style metrics on in order to detect similarities between code sequences, and we use the BlackBox data set as a case study.
