Developing numerical libraries in Java [PDF]

open access: yesConcurrency: Practice and Experience, 1998
The rapid and widespread adoption of Java has created a demand for reliable and reusable mathematical software components to support the growing number of compute-intensive applications now under development, particularly in science and engineering. In this paper we address practical issues of the Java language and environment which have an effect on ...

Place Value Understanding Explains Individual Differences in Writing Numbers in Second and Third Graders But Goes Beyond

open access: yesFrontiers in Education, 2022
Recent studies have shown that children’s proficiency in writing numbers as part of the so-called transcoding correlates with math skills. Typically, children learn to write numbers up to 10,000 between Grade 1 and 4.

Development of Spatial-Numerical Associations [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Psychological Science, 2014
Links between spatial and numerical thinking are well established in studies of adult cognition. Here, we review recent research on the origins and development of these links, with an emphasis on the formative role of experience in typical development and on the theoretical insights to be gained from infant cognition.

More linear than log? Non-symbolic number-line estimation in 3- to 5-year-old children

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
The number-line estimation task has become one of the most important methods in numerical cognition research. Originally applied as a direct measure of spatial number representation, it became also informative regarding various other aspects of number ...

Improved upper-ocean thermodynamical structure modeling with combined effects of surface waves and M2 internal tides on vertical mixing: a case study for the Indian Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2022
Surface waves and internal tides have a great contribution to vertical mixing processes in the upper ocean. In this study, three mixing schemes, including non-breaking surface-wave-generated turbulent mixing, mixing induced by the wave transport flux ...

How space-number associations may be created in preliterate children: six distinct mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
The directionality of space-number association (SNA) is shaped by cultural experiences. It usually follows the culturally dominant reading direction.

Effects of finger counting on numerical development – the opposing views of neurocognition and mathematics education

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2011
Usually children learn the basic principles of number and arithmetic by the help of finger-based representations. However, whether the reliance on finger-based representations is only beneficial or whether it may even become detrimental is the subject of

Development of numerical concepts

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Childhood Education, 2013
The development of numerical concepts is described from infancy to preschool age. Infants a few days old exhibit an early sensitivity for numerosities. In the course of development, nonverbal mental models allow for the exact representation of small quantities as well as changes in these quantities.
