Contrasting Automatic and Manual Group Formation: A Case Study in a Software Engineering Postgraduate Course
This paper proposes the comparison of a group formation approach based on an evolutionary algorithm with a manual approach performed by an instructor with ten years of experience on this task. The groups were created based on the professional, psychological, and experience profile of each student. The results obtained demonstrated the algorithm’s potential, reaching an average similarity of \(83.46\%\) with the groups formed manually by the instructor.
4th International Workshop on Language Engineering (ATEM 2007)
Following the great success of previous editions, ATEM2007 is the 4thedition of the ATEM workshop series. The first two editions were held with WCRE in 2003 and 2004, while the 3rdone was held with MoDELS 2006. ATEM has always been focused on engineering of language descriptions. In order to cover as many aspects of language descriptions important for greater success and adoption of model-driven engineering, ATEM has been evolving so as its scope: The first edition was about metamodelsand schemas. The second about was metamodels, schemasand grammars. The third edition was about metamodels, schemas, grammarsand ontologies.
Editorial: Software language engineering
Software languages play an important role in software development. Software languages are the artificial languages that are used to describe software systems at various abstraction levels. They are applied to describe requirements and designs for software, definitions of software architectures, and implementations of software systems. A huge variety of different technological spaces exist to describe languages: programming languages, software modeling languages, data modeling languages, domain-specific languages, ontology language, and others.
