The demand for education in the area of simulation is in the increase. This paper describes how education in the field of simulation can take advantage of the virtues of intelligent tutoring with respect to enhancing the educational process. For this purpose, this paper gives an overview of what constitutes the objectives and the content of a comprehensive course in discrete event simulation. The architecture of an intelligent tutoring system is presented and it is discussed how these sophisticated learning aids offer individualised student guidance and support within a learning environment. The paper then introduces a prototype intelligent tutoring system, the simulation tutor, and suggests how the system might be developed to enhance education in simulation.

This paper presents the development of a prototype solvent selection advisory system using an deject-oriented. The system is called the Solvent Selection Advisory System (SSAS) and it is used for preliminary selection of optimal solvents for CO2 absorbers given different user specifications and plant conditions. The system can function as both an advisory and a tutorial system. The selection of solvents is based on heuristics, and visual illustrations of the problem help users learn about the domain. In this paper, we describe development of the system using the Object-Oriented Knowledge Engineering methodology.

One of the greatest benefits provided by computer networks, in particular local area networks, is the ability to access files served by other computers in a network. Whereas file system concepts are first introduced in Operating systems units, many file system concepts need to be readdressed and generalized in later computer Networks units. Moreover, as students become increasingly familiar with internetworking and programs such as ftp, many of the strong links between the Operating systems and computer Networks units may be reinforced. This paper discusses the successes experienced with two strongly related projects offered in our third year computer Networks unit. Each project requires students to support a minimal distributed file system by implementing user-level libraries which redefine a handful of operating system system calls supporting remote file access.
Default reasoning plays a fundamental role in a variety of information processing applications. Default inference is inherently computationally hard and practical applications, specially time-bounded ones, may require...

We goal of the work is to derive four-voice music pieces from given musical plans, which describe the harmonic flow and the intentions of a desired composition. We developed the experimentation platform COMPOzE for intention based composition. COMPOzE is based on constraint programming over finite domains of integers. We argue that constraint programming provides a suitable technology for this task and that the libraries and tools available for the constraint programming system Oz effectively support the implementation of COMPOzE. This work links the research areas of automatic music composition on one hand and finite domain constraint programming on the other, and contributes the tool COMPOzE, which practically demonstrates the potential of constraint programming to open up new areas of application for automatic music composition.
Let ℋ and ℓ be sets of functions from domain X to ℝ. We say that ℋ validly generalises ℓ from approximate interpolation if and only if for each η > 0 and ε δ ∈ (0, 1) there is m0(η, ε δ) such that for any fu...
In the previous studies, it has been shown that the classical constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is deductive in nature, and can be formulated as a classical theorem proving problem [1, 10]. Constraint satisfaction...

Over 25 implementations of different functional languages are benchmarked using the same program, a floating-point intensive application taken from molecular biology. The principal aspects studied are compile time and execution time for the various implementations that were benchmarked. An important consideration is how the program can be modified and tuned to obtain maximal performance on each language implementation. With few exceptions, the compilers take a significant amount of time to compile this program, though most compilers were faster than the then current GNU C compiler (GCC version 2.5.8). Compilers that generate C or Lisp are often slower than those that generate native code directly: the cost of compiling the intermediate form is normally a large fraction of the total compilation time. There is no clear distinction between the runtime performance of eager and lazy implementations when appropriate annotations are used: lazy implementations have clearly come of age when it comes to implementing largely strict applications, such as the Pseudoknot program. The speed of C can be approached by some implementations, but to achieve this performance, special measures such as strictness annotations are required by non-strict implementations. The benchmark results have to be interpreted with care. Firstly, a benchmark based on a single program cannot cover a wide spectrum of 'typical' applications. Secondly, the compilers vary in the kind and level of optimisations offered, so the effort required to obtain an optimal version of the program is similarly varied.
This paper presents a new methodology for the efficiency assessment of task performance of decentralized autonomous multi-robot system. This formulation considers the types of the robots (in terms of sensing, action, ...
