چکیده

In theory, course curriculum, also known as course syllabus, should play an important role in the success of learning. However, in practice course syllabus are often far from playing this role. In this paper, we analyze several course syllabus in order to better characterize learning expectations in the field of HCI (Human Computer Interaction) and Computer Science. We start by analyzing variations of course syllabus descriptions in that field. We report the results of a case study using simple statistics to automatically extract relationships from syllabus documents of HCI courses described online. We further provide some requirements for future syllabus descriptions that seem to be missing in all the syllabus descriptions analyzed. Our aim with this work is to urge further discussions and future work to enhance the content and practice related to course syllabus. Keywords-curriculum; HCI; CS; syllabus;

Construction and Analysis of Tissue-Specific Protein-Protein Interaction Networks in Humans

We have studied the changes in protein-protein interaction network of 38 different tissues of the human body. 123 gene expression samples from these tissues were used to construct human protein-protein interaction network. This network is then pruned using the gene expression samples of each tissue to construct different protein-protein interaction networks corresponding to different studied ti...
