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.

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.

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.

A DSL for Swarm Intelligence Algorithms

Authors: Kevin Martins and Rui Mendes

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 135, 14th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2025)

Abstract
We propose a domain-specific language to simplify the expression of Swarm Intelligence algorithms. These algorithms are typically introduced through metaphors, requiring practitioners to manually translate them into low-level implementations.This process can obscure intent and hinder reproducibility. The proposed DSL bridges this gap by capturing algorithmic behavior at a higher level of abstraction. We demonstrate its expressiveness in a few lines of code and evaluate its feasibility through a reference implementation. A discussion is presented that includes empirical comparisons with traditional implementations and future directions of the proposed DSL.

eOS: The Exercise Operating System

Authors: Rui Mendes and José João Almeida

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 62, 7th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2018)

Abstract
We present an architecture for a system for creating, adapting and evaluating programming exercises for students. The system is capable of generating exercise skeletons, automatically creating inputs and outputs, provide a way of creating a large number of exercises programmatically and allowing students to solve them while giving them feedback. Furthermore, it allows the creation of special comparators that can check whether the output of a given submission is equivalent to the expected one or simply check whether the above mentioned output corresponds to a correct solution.
