Quantitative temporal reasoning [PDF]

open access: yesReal-Time Systems, 1992
A substantially large class of programs operate in distributed and real-time environments, and an integral part of their correctness specification requires the expression of time-critical properties that relate the occurrence of events of the system. We focus on the formal specification and reasoning about the correctness of such programs. We propose a

Modeling and Measuring Domain-Specific Quantitative Reasoning in Higher Education Business and Economics

open access: yesFrontline Learning Research, 2023
Quantitative reasoning is considered a crucial prerequisite for acquiring domain-specific expertise in higher education. To ascertain whether students are developing quantitative reasoning, validly assessing its development over the course of their ...

Intuitive interference in quantitative reasoning [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Research, 2006
It is well known that surface features of a task can queue multiple reasoning strategies. Interference or conflict among the strategies is signaled by increasing reaction times and error rates. To determine the neural basis of this interference, we studied 14 volunteers using event-related fMRI, as they compared the perimeters of geometrical shapes in ...

Applying Quantitative Reasoning to Clarify Arc Measurements

open access: yesGeorgia Educational Researcher, 2020
The importance of reasoning quantitatively is reflected in both mathematics education research and mathematical standards for K-12 students. In this article, we detail how a quantitative reasoning framework can be used to help differentiate two ...

Fibrational Bisimulations and Quantitative Reasoning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Bisimulation and bisimilarity are fundamental notions in comparing state-based systems. Their extensions to a variety of systems have been actively pursued in recent years, a notable direction being quantitative extensions. In this paper we present an abstract categorical framework for such extended (bi)simulation notions.

Developing Mathematics Teachers’ Attention to Quantitative Reasoning in Task Design: A Modeling Approach

open access: yesNumeracy, 2019
This study examines how a models-and-modeling perspective affected teachers' attention to quantitative reasoning in task design. A Model-Eliciting Activity (MEA) was implemented with 21 teachers over four weeks, challenging teachers to design a ...

Qualitative Reasoning for Quantitative Simulation

open access: yesModelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2018
Qualitative simulation is a well-known reasoning technique that involves the use of simulation technologies. Reasoning is made to determine qualitative values and change directions of system variables, and it is done for each time point and time interval
