In-Browser C++ Interpreter for Lightweight Intelligent Programming Learning Environments

Authors: Tomas Blažauskas, Arnoldas Rauba, Jakub Swacha, Raffaele Montella, and Rytis Maskeliunas

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 133, 6th International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2025)

Abstract
The paper presents a browser native C++ interpreter integrated into an AI-assisted educational platform designed to enhance programming learning in formal education. The interpreter leverages Parsing Expression Grammars (PEG) to generate Abstract Syntax Trees (AST) and executes C++ code using a TypeScript-based runtime. The system supports key C++ features, including pointer arithmetic, function overloading, and namespace resolution, and emulates memory management via reference-counted JavaScript objects. Integrated within a web-based learning environment, it provides automated feedback, error explanations, and code quality evaluations. The evaluation involved 4582 students in three difficulty levels and feedback from 14 teachers. The results include high system usability scale (SUS) scores (avg. 83.5) and WBLT learning effectiveness scores (avg. 4.58/5). Interpreter performance testing in 65 cases averaged under 10 ms per task, confirming its practical applicability to school curricula. The system supports SCORM and PWA deployment, enabling LMS-independent usage. The work introduces a technical innovation in browser-based C++ execution and a scalable framework for LLM-enhanced programming pedagogy.

Structure-Guided Automated Reasoning

Authors: Max Bannach and Markus Hecher

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 327, 42nd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2025)

Abstract
Algorithmic meta-theorems state that problems definable in a fixed logic can be solved efficiently on structures with certain properties. An example is Courcelle’s Theorem, which states that all problems expressible in monadic second-order logic can be solved efficiently on structures of small treewidth. Such theorems are usually proven by algorithms for the model-checking problem of the logic, which is often complex and rarely leads to highly efficient solutions. Alternatively, we can solve the model-checking problem by grounding the given logic to propositional logic, for which dedicated solvers are available. Such encodings will, however, usually not preserve the input’s treewidth. This paper investigates whether all problems definable in monadic second-order logic can efficiently be encoded into SAT such that the input’s treewidth bounds the treewidth of the resulting formula. We answer this in the affirmative and, hence, provide an alternative proof of Courcelle’s Theorem. Our technique can naturally be extended: There are treewidth-aware reductions from the optimization version of Courcelle’s Theorem to MAXSAT and from the counting version of the theorem to #SAT. By using encodings to SAT, we obtain, ignoring polynomial factors, the same running time for the model-checking problem as we would with dedicated algorithms. Another immediate consequence is a treewidth-preserving reduction from the model-checking problem of monadic second-order logic to integer linear programming (ILP). We complement our upper bounds with new lower bounds based on ETH; and we show that the block size of the input’s formula and the treewidth of the input’s structure are tightly linked. Finally, we present various side results needed to prove the main theorems: A treewidth-preserving cardinality constraints, treewidth-preserving encodings from CNFs into DNFs, and a treewidth-aware quantifier elimination scheme for QBF implying a treewidth-preserving reduction from QSAT to SAT. We also present a reduction from projected model counting to #SAT that increases the treewidth by at most a factor of 2^{k+3.59}, yielding a algorithm for projected model counting that beats the currently best running time of 2^{2^{k+4}}⋅poly(|ψ|).

New and Improved Algorithms for Unordered Tree Inclusion

Authors: Tatsuya Akutsu, Jesper Jansson, Ruiming Li, Atsuhiro Takasu, and Takeyuki Tamura

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 123, 29th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2018)

Abstract
The tree inclusion problem is, given two node-labeled trees P and T (the "pattern tree" and the "text tree"), to locate every minimal subtree in T (if any) that can be obtained by applying a sequence of node insertion operations to P. Although the ordered tree inclusion problem is solvable in polynomial time, the unordered tree inclusion problem is NP-hard. The currently fastest algorithm for the latter is from 1995 and runs in O(poly(m,n) * 2^{2d}) = O^*(2^{2d}) time, where m and n are the sizes of the pattern and text trees, respectively, and d is the maximum outdegree of the pattern tree. Here, we develop a new algorithm that improves the exponent 2d to d by considering a particular type of ancestor-descendant relationships and applying dynamic programming, thus reducing the time complexity to O^*(2^d). We then study restricted variants of the unordered tree inclusion problem where the number of occurrences of different node labels and/or the input trees' heights are bounded. We show that although the problem remains NP-hard in many such cases, it can be solved in polynomial time for c = 2 and in O^*(1.8^d) time for c = 3 if the leaves of P are distinctly labeled and each label occurs at most c times in T. We also present a randomized O^*(1.883^d)-time algorithm for the case that the heights of P and T are one and two, respectively.
