Innovative computer aided diagramming
Computer aided diagramming (CAD) tools today are based on the approach of a fixed symbol into which text is fitted. This approach leads to shortfalls in human interfacing and tool development. The inverse view of entering the text and then drawing the symbol around it provides the basis for an …

Combinatorial number theory through diagramming and gesture
… We illustrate this by focusing on the concept of diagramming and gesture as mathematical practice. The mathematics presented is viewed through this lens throughout the document. Joint with H. E. Burson and A. Straub, motivated by recent results working toward classifying $(s, t)$-core partitions …

Standard Network Diagramming Language and Corresponding Meta-Model
… will present my suggestion for a set of standard diagramming network symbols, formally define the syntax of the logical network diagramming language that utilizes these symbols and provide desired semantics using a graph of its corresponding meta-model. I will also present sample diagrams of a …

Diagramming Prior Knowledge in the Classroom: A Case Study
… This case study describes a novel abstract diagramming technique facilitated in four separate university classroom settings. Using paper and crayons, the students created three diagrams that represented the externalization of their unconscious perceptions of their own prior knowledge. The …

Evaluating Collaborative Cues for Remote Affinity Diagramming Tasks in Augmented Reality
… application that emulates an affinity diagramming environment on an AR headset. In our application, users can organize and manipulate virtual sticky notes around a central virtual board. We performed a user study, with each session requiring users to perform an affinity diagramming …

Automatic flowchart displays for software visualisation
… diagrams. Currently there are very few automated diagramming systems that can produce diagrams from source code, and the majority of these diagramming systems require a significant amount of time to generate diagrams. This research aims at investigating the process of creating flowchart diagrams …

Bluefish: A Grammar of Discrete Diagrams
… representation supported by a domain-specific diagramming tool. The key idea of this paper is that perceptual groups visualize discrete relations. We operationalize this insight in Bluefish, a grammar of discrete diagrams, in which diagram authors can use perceptual grouping principles to …

An Investigation of the Expanding Role of the Critical Path Method by ENR'S Top 400 Contractors
… concern lately in CPM is the use of precedence diagramming instead of arrow diagramming. Despite the debate, the responding companies found precedence diagrams easier to read, provide more flexibility, and allow for easier use of "smart" relationships (i.e. start-start).

Automated Environment Diagram Assessment for Introductory CS Education
… 87% of students felt more confident in answering diagramming questions after after using the tool and 83% found the automated hints helpful.

The Casta paintings of Colonial Mexico : the politics of constructing social order through art
… paintings and Old World systems of measuring and diagramming social differences. The fourth chapter places the Casta paintings within a political debate about the control of art, and argues that this genre can be seen as part of a larger political process of the struggle for power between Spain …

Use of social network sites for question and answer behavior
… behavior and used the techniques of affinity diagramming to code types and topics of questions, and grounded theory to code motivations for asking and answering questions. We conducted a field study in which participants posted status updates that asked a question that we varied across several …

A robust planning and control methodology for design-build fast-track civil engineering and architectural projects
… the recommended fast-tracking strategy. The GERT diagramming scheme is used to calculate the project duration probabilistically by incorporating the possible branches and loops in the project. The system dynamics modeling technique is applied to analyze the causality links of relevant factors in …

Mathematics, cognition, and you!
… to) logical deduction, geometric intuition, diagramming, or computer assistance. What is common to each of these is the characteristic of being convincing to a sound mathematical mind. Even though what in particular makes each of these methods of proof convincing differs, that they are …

Control of parts : parts making in the building industry
The thesis advances a diagramming tool called PAct. Each diagram is a model of a "value adding" enterprise, representing materials processing, parts manipulation and assembly, and the agents involved. Its purpose is to support analysis of the interactions of agents and parts in production flows …

Building a narrative text-world through deixis and modality: a contrastive study of Spanish and English
… modal worlds. Thus, it is an ideal framework for diagramming and analysing deictic and modal choices; here, it is adapted for application to the Spanish language, and refined and developed in the process. Being a relatively new model in the Cognitive Stylistic analytic toolkit, as well as an …

Object-oriented software development in structural engineering
… is followed by the presentation of a software diagramming notation which can aid in the data modelling and design of a software system before coding is started. Also presented is a discussion on the pragmatics of object-oriented development. A universal structural analysis preprocessor called …

Enhancing operational efficiency in hydrocarbon supply chains through engineering methods: a case study in fuel dispatch optimization
… included stages of process selection, detailed diagramming, analysis and development of a new method, implementation, and control. These stages allowed for the identification and elimination of redundant activities, optimization of loading times, and improved resource utilization. The most …

Modular system diagrams for robotics and their use in the MICA Project
… constructed and proposed for the specific use of diagramming robots. This robotic prototype is useful for teaching robotics and several examples of how robots can be diagrammed are given. The robotic prototype is then applied to creating sensors and generator modules in the MICA Project. The MICA …
