Work-in-Progress: A Web-Based Tool to Assess Computational ThinkingAbstractWhen President Obama unveiled his plan to give all students in America the opportunity to learncomputer science [1], discussions about Computational Thinking (CT) began in earnest in manyorganizations across a wide range of disciplines. However, Jeannette Wing stated the importanceof CT for everyone a decade earlier in her landmark essay [2]. Since then, several people andorganizations have posted their own definition of CT, which presents a challenge in being able toassess CT understanding and awareness in people. In an effort to build consensus on how to bestassess CT, the authors have developed a web-based tool that will enable CT experts globally

For example in electrical/computer programs courses such as controlsystems, electromagnetics, signal processing and communications, students have difficulty withconcepts such as transforms (Fourier, Laplace), bandwidth, signal-to-noise ratio, design ofvarious filters, convolution, and time/frequency domain representations of signals & systems.

The cyberlearning environment or tool that was developed with funding from the NSF was considered to be useful and user friendly by students who used the tool. 2. Gamification was considered by students to be motivating. 3. Students suggested that the tool should be used as an integral part of the course rather than as an add-on.1 IntroductionEmployment outlook for students with computer science degrees is very good.

INTRODUCTIONEmbedded system design and implementation is a key component in the undergraduate computerengineering curriculum. In an era of mobile and ubiquitous computing, a competent embeddeddevice should have a real-time operating system (RTOS) to make full use of its potentials and toaccommodate task needs. Deploying an RTOS also makes the programming job of embeddedsystem engineers easier. Instead of embedded system engineers writing their own code

Some data is collected on a small cluster ofinexpensive consumer-grade hardware to explore the feasibility of this algorithm.Context The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is an algorithm for computing the Discrete FourierTransform (DFT) of a sequence of samples of a signal. The DFT of a signal in time or space is arepresentation of that signal in the frequency domain. The DFT is a useful tool in digital signalprocessing because it describes how a digital signal is made up of complex sinusoidal components.The 1-dimensional DFT of a signal y is defined aswhere N is the number of samples in the signal being

Graph-based models use the graph (node and edges) to represent thebuilding structure and model the occupancy dynamics using some flow or queuing network [2]. Whileagent-based simulation has the advantage of being able to represent each occupant’s behavior and decisionmaking in detail, computation cost increases proportionally with the number of agents and their agentsmaking it difficult to simulate large occupancy areas such as a game stadium, airports, rail terminals, etc.On the other hand, a graph-based model assumes occupants as a homogeneous mass and models their flowacross the graph

Our results were scrutinized against others and found that in most cases theywere similar or slightly improved for multilevel cache associativity.1.

A chase reduces the averageaccess time of the main memory as well fetch latencies. In recent CPUs caches have multi-levelsand associativity. The concept of multi-level cache is illustrated in Figure 1.
