The purpose of this essay is to show the ways in which ethnographic methodology provided a useful means for investigating the work and activity of an emergent game production team and system. With neither expertise in game design nor software programming, the researcher gained access to the unit of analysis, the production of educational computer games, as a research and instructional design ap...

The apprentice model is making a resurgence through online craft communities or virtual guilds. These groups are growing through the mainstreaming of computercontrolled manufacturing and the democratic sales channels of the internet. Similar to open-source software communities, virtual guilds have a pioneering role in championing new technologies, often with only niche applications. The future ...

Degree apprenticeships in the UK represent a shift approach to degree-level study. As model matures, it is important hear perspectives of apprentices. Using Q methodology, study aims identify different apprentices’ viewpoints apprenticeship, exploring aspects belonging, support, challenges and views learning experience. Thirty-five second-year computing apprentices at university participated Ce...

This paper presents several design principles used in the development of the Disciple learning agents. The process of developing such an agent relies on importing ontologies from existing knowledge repositories, and on teaching the agent how to perform various tasks, in a way that resembles how an expert would teach a human apprentice when solving problems in cooperation. Experimental results s...

own structure-and ultimately even its own inhabitants. Those net-dwellers would be "agents," autonomous software robots that would be free to leave their home machine and fan out through cyberspace like productive versions of the sorcerer's apprentice. Such agents might make airline reservations for you, schedule meetings, or search out information anywhere in the network. They could help scien...

This paper outlines a simple, e cient, and scalable parallel implementation of a Three-dimensional Fast Fourier Transform (FFT3D) on the Cray T3E supercomputer. This implementation is intended to be used in electronic structure calculations within the Plane Wave (PW) framework. The program exhibits low communication overhead and very well balanced workload. Results of testing runs using Apprent...
