Moopec: A Tool for Creating Programming Problems

Authors: Rui C. Mendes

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 91, Second International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2021)


Abstract
This paper presents a tool called Mooshak ProblEm Creator (Moopec) for facilitating the creation of programming exercises for a web-based multi-site programming contest system called Mooshak [Leal and Silva, 2003]. Users only need to create a text file for specifying all the information concerning problems including their description, tests and user feedback. This tool provides ways of automating most tasks involved in creating problems in Mooshak and, consequently, increases teachers' productivity. Moopec allows instructors to quickly create problem sets by simply editing a text file. Moopec is implemented in Python and is available at https://github.com/rcm/mooshak_problem_creator.

Short Paper
A Teaching Assistant for the C Language (Short Paper)

Authors: Rui C. Mendes and José João Almeida

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 91, Second International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2021)


Abstract
We introduce a C tutor that can help instructors manage classes with many students learning to program in C. Nowadays, it is easy to evaluate code but it is hard to provide good feedback. We introduce a tool to help instructors provide students with feedback concerning their implementation and documentation for honing their programming skills. This tool is implemented in Python and is available at https://github.com/rcm/C_teaching_assistant.

Hunting Ancestors: A Unified Approach for Discovering Genealogical Information

Authors: José João Almeida and Rui Castro Mendes

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 74, 8th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2019)


Abstract
This paper presents an unified approach for discovering genealogical information. It presents a frameworks for storing information concerning ancestors, locations, dates and documents. It also intends to provide a framework that is able to perform inference concerning dates by using constraints and for handling relations, locations and sources. The DSL presented also aims to help users store information from heterogeneous sources along with the evidence contained therein.

Exploring Key-Value Stores in Multi-Writer Byzantine-Resilient Register Emulations

Authors: Tiago Oliveira, Ricardo Mendes, and Alysson Bessani

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 70, 20th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2016)


Abstract
Resilient register emulation is a fundamental technique to implement dependable storage and distributed systems. In data-centric models, where servers are modeled as fail-prone base objects, classical solutions achieve resilience by using fault-tolerant quorums of read-write registers or read-modify-write objects. Recently, this model has attracted renewed interest due to the popularity of cloud storage providers (e.g., Amazon S3), that can be modeled as key-value stores (KVSs) and combined for providing secure and dependable multi-cloud storage services. In this paper we present three novel wait-free multi-writer multi-reader regular register emulations on top of Byzantine-prone KVSs. We implemented and evaluated these constructions using five existing cloud storage services and show that their performance matches or surpasses existing data-centric register emulations.
