Advancing underutilized crops knowledge using SWRL-enabled ontologies - A survey and early experiment (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Due to their powerful knowledge representation formalism and associated inference mechanisms, ontology-based approaches have been increasingly adopted to formally represent domain knowledge. We propose the use of ontologies to advance knowledge-shari... Read More about Advancing underutilized crops knowledge using SWRL-enabled ontologies - A survey and early experiment.

Ashby’s mobile homeostat (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In Design for a Brain, W. Ross Ashby speculates about the possibility of creating a mobile homeostat " with its critical states set so that it seeks situations of high illumination. " This paper explores an embedding of Ashby's homeostat within a sim... Read More about Ashby’s mobile homeostat.

Using evolutionary computation to shed light on the effect of scale and complexity on object-orientedsoftware design (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Early lifecycle software design is an intensely human activity in which design scale and complexity can place a high cognitive load on the software designer. Recently, the use of evolutionary search has been suggested to yield insights in the natur...

Turtle geometry the Python way (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

An introduction to coding using Python’s on-screen ‘turtle’ that can be commanded with a few simple instructions including forward, backward, left and right. The turtle leaves a trace that can be used to draw geometric figures. This workshop is aimed... Read More about Turtle geometry the Python way.
