This paper describes results from a series of experimental studies to explore issues related to structuring productive group dynamics for collaborative learning using an adaptive ...
In this paper we introduce the idea of organizing systems. Through a number of examples from an ongoing ethnographic study of family life, we suggest that organizing systems come ...
Systems programs rely on fine-grain control of data representation and use of state to achieve performance, conformance to hardware specification, and temporal predictability. T...
Increasingly, biology researchers and medical practitioners are using computational tools to model and analyze dynamic systems across scales from the macro to the cellular to the ...
