| Abstract: How do schools successfully support the personalising of learning though the use of digital technologies? The research reported here explores the relationship between digital technologies and current moves to provide a more personalised learning experience. Recommendations are made that will encourage a better understanding of the learning spaces and the better use of digital technologies. We start by presenting a descriptive model of the relationship between learners, the educational spaces they operate in and digital technologies. We identify four key spaces (personal learning space, teaching space, school space and living space) that have an impact on the educational experience of learners. These spaces are currently not well understood and as a result much of the informal and formal learning of children is not acknowledged and not assessed. We then test the validity of this model using evidence from several national research projects all of which used a mixed-method design collecting qualitative and quantitative data through focus groups, interviews, surveys and national data sets of learner performance. The data reported here comes from the case study reports and includes classroom observations along with first hand comments from teachers, managers and learners. We consider the implications of these data and this model for our understanding of how digital technologies can be used effectively in education. In the traditional model of education the design of the learning space was mainly under the control of the institution and the teacher. The physical characteristics of the personal learning space can still be influenced by teachers and institutions, but the design of that space and the uses of the technology are under the control of the learners. To create effective learning it is necessary to understand the different spaces in the personalising of learning and to respond to the perceptions and behaviours of learners. | |||||

| Abstract: The usage of CSCW systems for teaching, training, and research collaboration increases constantly, as it offers a time- and place-independent, as well as a cost-effective platform. The user's search should not be restricted to local material; in fact, users benefit from different search environments, as, for example digital libraries to find appropriate working material. Searching and further processing of documents imply a media breach since the search cannot be invoked in current CSCW systems directly. This paper presents the first prototype of a CSCW system which enables users to search in external sources without media breach. To provide arbitrary search environments no restrictions to data formats or search functionalities are allowed. Hence we have enhanced search environments with self description capabilities in order to realize an automatic binding of search environments in CSCW systems. By search environments we address any system offering searchable knowledge bases, such as digital libraries or the CSCW system itself. Furthermore our concept supports local search and searching in different external sources at the same time. | |||||

| Abstract: Multi Expression Programming (MEP) is a Genetic Programming (GP) variant that uses linear chromosomes for solution encoding. A unique MEP feature is its ability of encoding multiple solutions of a problem in a single chromosome. These solutions are handled in the same time complexity as other techniques that encode a single solution in a chromosome. In this paper MEP is used for evolving digital circuits. MEP is compared to Cartesian Genetic Programming (CGP) a technique widely used for evolving digital circuits by using several well-known problems in the field of electronic circuit design. Numerical experiments show that MEP outperforms CGP for the considered test problems. | |||||

| Abstract: Digitale Bibliotheken bilden ein Integrationsmedium zwischen aktueller Spitzenforschung in High-Tech-Laboren und hochschulweiten E-Learning-Infrastrukturen. Damit digitale Bibliotheken dieser Aufgabe gerecht werden können, müssen die technischen Realisierungen aktueller Architekturen von Forschungslaboren, die häufig nur über proprietäre Schnittstellen verfügen, von Grund auf neu konzipiert werden. Die Autoren stellen dazu am Beispiel eines Thermoschock-Prüfstandes der Technischen Mechanik eine serviceorientierte Architektur vor, die den Anforderungen einer flexiblen Integration genügt und mit Hilfe des Wasabi-Frameworks in eine bestehende Infrastruktur mit digitaler Bibliothek integriert wird. | |||||

article | DOI URL |
| Abstract: Of all the issues discussed at Alife VII: Looking Forward, Looking Backward, the issue of whether it was possible to create an artificial life system that exhibits open-ended evolution of novelty is by far the biggest. Of the 14 open problems settled on as a result of debate at the conference, some 6 are directly, or indirectly related to this issue. Most people equate open-ended evolution with complexity growth, although a priori these seem to be different things. In this paper I report on experiments to measure the complexity of Tierran organisms, and show the results for a size-neutral run of Tierra. In this run, no increase in organismal complexity was observed, although organism size did increase through the run. This result is discussed, offering some signposts on path to solving the issue of open ended evolution. | |||||

| Torresen, J. | A Scalable Approach to Evolvable Hardware | 2002 | Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines Vol. 3(3), pp. 259-282 |
article | DOI |
| Abstract: Evolvable Hardware (EHW) has been proposed as a new method for designing systems for complex real-world applications. However, so far, only relatively simple systems have been shown to be evolvable. In this paper, it is proposed that concepts from biology should be applied to EHW techniques to make EHW more applicable to solving complex problems. One such concept has led to the increased complexity scheme presented, where a system is evolved by evolving smaller sub-systems. Experiments with two different tasks illustrate that inclusion of this scheme substantially reduces the number of generations required for evolution. Further, for the prosthesis control task, the best performance is obtained by the novel approach. The best circuit evolved performs better than the best trained neural network. | |||||
