A growing number of commercial and enterprise systems increasingly rely on compute-intensive machine learning algorithms. While the demand for these compute-intensive applications is growing, the performance benefits from ...

There are currently many tutoring software systems which have been designed for neurotypical children. These systems cover academic topics such as reading and math, and are made available through various technological ...

The Student Cluster Competition is a suite of challenges where teams of undergraduates design a computer cluster and then compete against each other through various benchmark applications. The present study will provide a ...

A new evolution of computing is emerging around wearable technologies. Wearable computing has been a topic of research for years. However, we are beginning to see adoption by consumers and non-researchers due to advances ...

In this paper, we present Code Shrew, a new software platform accompanied by an interactive programming course. Its aim is to teach the fundamentals of computer programming by enabling users to create their own drawings ...

This paper briefly discusses some pedagogical strategies that teachers use to engage students and increase motivation and learning outcomes. Then it follows with a discussion of educational games and the implementation ...

Over the last decades, general-purpose computing stack and its abstractions have provided both performance and productivity, which have been the main drivers for the revolutionary advances in IT industry. However, the ...

Graphical models offer techniques for capturing the structure of many problems in real- world domains and provide means for representation, interpretation, and inference. The modeling framework provides tools for discovering ...

The longstanding goals of storage system design have been to provide simple abstractions for applications to efficiently access data while ensuring the data durability and security on a hardware device. The traditional ...

As part of Summer 2018 Education Technology project, I am investigating the area of game-based learning in general, and the analysis of game-based learning outcomes, in particular. In order to thoroughly understand the ...
