Prior to the fall of 1992, the two programs shared only two computing courses and one math course. Today, however, students who enter Marist with either major take the same courses during their fkeshman year. This common foundation for both CS and IS has provided a better background for students, enhanced their enthusiasm for their chosen fields, increased the retention of students in the major, and helped ensure that students are pursuing the major for which they are best suited. This paper looks at the two majors before the initiation of the joint first yea program and examines the problems with the course sequences identified by faculty and students, It then looks at how the joint first year program, through the restructuring of the course sequence and the introduction of a freshman lecture series, has solved some of those problems.","PeriodicalId":232532,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the twenty-sixth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115718572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Simulating digital logic components and computer architectures is one case where the simulation model can be effectively and conveniently expressed in the programming language itself. A class library supporting: schematic organization, multi-level digital-signal representation, and implementations of a modest set of component primitives has been developed. This library supports two forms of hierarchical arrangements; first, the digital signals themselves can be expressed as vectors (as for a bus), either directly or by composition, and second, the digital components can be arranged hierarchically as modules, and the modules can be used in an identical manner in which the primitives are used. The library code described here is available from the author.","PeriodicalId":232532,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the twenty-sixth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121896627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Parker","doi":"10.1145/199688.199786","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/199688.199786","url":null,"abstract":"In conventional science and engineering degree programs, computation is commonly treated-as a narrow technical tool to be studied and applied in isolation from the traditional topics of the discipline. Students are typically required to take a programming course (usually in Fortran, C, or Pascal) to learn how to program, and perhaps a numerical analysis course (covering numerical integration, root finding, and the like) to learn ways to apply their programming skills. However, many students then go through the rest of their degree programs without ever using computation in any significant way. This approach ignores the fact that computation has evolved into an essential way of illuminating scientific and engineering principles. Researchers now choose among the theoretical, experimental, and computational approaches to studying scientific phenomena, It is becoming increasingly clear that computation should be exploited in science and engineering education for its descriptive and analytical powers [1–3]. We believe that it is as unreasonable to teach science and engineering without computing as it would be to do so without calculus and differential equations. To encourage the integration of computation into the science and engineering curricula, we have designed and taught an introductory course in computing expressly for science and engineering students. Our goal wss to create a course to satisfy the standard programming requirement while preparing students to immediately exploit the broad power of modern computing in their science and engineering courses. Our course has at least four distinguishing features:","PeriodicalId":232532,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the twenty-sixth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122214984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Achieving a uniform interface for binary tree implementations 实现二叉树实现的统一接口

Gurwitz","doi":"10.1145/199688.199726","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/199688.199726","url":null,"abstract":"One of the basic principles taught in a data structures course is that an application program should be independent of the implementation of any particular data structure it uses. This policy breaks down when binary trees are introduced, because the interfaces for the various representations of binary trees are not uniform. In particular, implementing a binary tree by using an implicit array generally requires the array itself to be passed as a parameter to any function that manipulates the tree. In this paper we present an approach for defining the implicit array representation of a binary tree. Our definition makes the underlying array transparent to the user. This allows us to describe a uniform interface for a binary tree module that can be used by an application program regardless of the particular implementation of the tree.","PeriodicalId":232532,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the twenty-sixth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116313587","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
