Many undergraduate engineering programs offer minimal course choice opportunities and constrain students in their ability to realize a broad and balanced education. This study delineates the course choice opportunities (i.e. free electives, technical electives, etc.) and balance of required technical and non-technical coursework in 62 computer science ...

Technical opinion: On defining computer science terminology
Communications of the ACM, 1999Summary We have shown how an object-oriented modeling notation canbe used to present a taxonomy.The simple classification for med-ical information systems in [3]uses only aggregation, and themedical informatics vocabulary in[2] primarily uses a generaliza-tion/specialization hierarchy torelate terms to each other.

A technical writing class for computer science majors
Proceedings of the 34th SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education - SIGCSE '03, 2003Writing skills need to be integrated into the Computer Science (CS) curriculum, and there is little empirical evidence on how best to do so. This paper first describes a technical writing class for CS undergraduates. Then it presents the results of a statistical study that investigated student perceptions of their learning experience in three areas ...

Technical Writing's Roots in Computer Science: The Evolution from Technician to Technical Writer
Journal of Technical Writing and Communication, 1988The history of Technical Writing closely parallels trends in the discipline of Computer Science. The early technical writers in the computer software industry were its own technicians (programmers and analysts), who used a variety of diagramming techniques to document computer systems.

Proceedings of the thirteenth SIGCSE technical symposium on Computer science education - SIGCSE '82, 1982
Much attention has been given regarding the lack of writing ability of our graduating students. Many of these same students cannot make reasonable oral presentations of predominantely technical material to peers, graduate students, or faculty much less to an audience consisting of mostly non-technical (lay) persons. This paper examines one such attempt

Towards a Technical Skills Curriculum to Supplement Traditional Computer Science Teaching
Proceedings of the 2016 ACM Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science Education, 2016It is commonplace for students to enter university with skills deficiencies. However, this is cause for growing concern in the context of South Africa, as these `deficient' students are becoming more numerous. Public secondary schools in South Africa are failing to create students with adequate skills for careers in the STEM fields.This paper isolates ...

The Technical and the Human Side of Computer Science
1992A scientific discipline, like any other field of human activity, is shaped by various factors such as individual achievements and discoveries, social context, economic pressure and, last not least, fashion and trends. For most disciplines, it is not too hard to give a comprehensive description of their essence, for instance, “computer science deals ...

Results Merging in the Networked Computer Science Technical Reports Library (NCSTRL)
2016In large digital libraries, results merging schemes based on relevancy to a given query are essential to providing a useful service. Documents estimated to be the most relevant should the first presented to the user. The Networked Computer Science Technical Reports Library currently does not perform any relevancy estimation in its results merging.
