TY - JOUR A1 - Lagriffoul, Fabien A1 - Andres, Benjamin T1 - Combining task and motion planning BT - A culprit detection problem JF - The international journal of robotics research N2 - Solving problems combining task and motion planning requires searching across a symbolic search space and a geometric search space. Because of the semantic gap between symbolic and geometric representations, symbolic sequences of actions are not guaranteed to be geometrically feasible. This compels us to search in the combined search space, in which frequent backtracks between symbolic and geometric levels make the search inefficient.We address this problem by guiding symbolic search with rich information extracted from the geometric level through culprit detection mechanisms.

A normativetheoretical approach is based on the AKT and ACM/IEEE curriculum and will be used within the recommendations of the German Informatics Society (GI) for the design of CS curricula. An empirically oriented approach refines the categories of the first one with regard to specific subject areas by conducting content analysis on CS curricula of important universities from several countries. The refined model will be used for the needs of students’ e-assessment and subsequent affirmative action of the CS departments.

Informatics has contributed to the scientific and technological development of our society in general and to the digital revolution in particular. Computational thinking is the term indicating the key ideas of this discipline that might be included in the key competencies underlying the curriculum of compulsory education. The educational potential of informatics has a history dating back to the sixties. In this article, we briefly revisit this history looking for lessons learned. In particular, we focus on experiences of teaching and learning programming. However, computational thinking is more than coding. It is a way of thinking and practicing interactive dynamic modeling with computers. We advocate that learners can practice computational thinking in playful contexts where they can develop personal projects, for example building videogames and/or robots, share and discuss their construction with others. In our view, this approach allows an integration of computational thinking in the K-12 curriculum across disciplines.

This talk will describe some of the principles and concepts we have adopted for this modern computing introduction: the idea of the ‘informed digital citizen’; engagement through narrative; playful pedagogy; making the power of ubicomp available to novices; setting technical skills in real contexts. It will also trace how the pedagogy is informed by experiences and research in Computer Science education.

The paper examines how recent developments in curriculum, together with insights from curriculum thinking in other subject areas, especially mathematics and science, can inform curriculum design for Computing. The analysis presented in the paper provides insights into the complexity of curriculum design as well as identifying important constraints and considerations for the ongoing development of a vision and framework for a Computing curriculum.

In this phylogenetic tree the sequences are arranged depending on similarities. In bioinformatics, constructing phylogenetic trees is often used to explore the evolutionary relationships of genes or organisms and to understand the mechanisms of evolution itself.

This includes DEMs, which are simple raster grids containing grey scales representing the respective elevation values. The project CREADED that is presented in this paper aims at making these monochrome raster images more significant and more intuitively interpretable. For this purpose, an executable interactive model for creating a colored and relief-shaded Digital Elevation Model (DEM) has been designed using the jABC framework. The process is based on standard jABC-SIBs and SIBs that provide specific GIS functions, which are available as Web services, command line tools and scripts.
