Book Mathematical Methods in Program Development

Download or read book Mathematical Methods in Program Development written by Manfred Broy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern information processing systems show such complex properties as distribution, parallelism, interaction, time dependency, and nondeterminism. For critical applications, mathematical methods are needed to model the systems and to support their development and validation. Impressive progress in mathematical methods for programming software systems makes it possible to think about unifying the different approaches. This book gives a comprehensive overview of existing methods and presents some of the most recent results in applying them. The main topics are: advanced programming techniques, foundations of systems engineering, mathematical support methods, and application of the methods. The approaches presented are illustrated by examples and related to other approaches.

Book Mixed Methods for Policy Research and Program Evaluation

Download or read book Mixed Methods for Policy Research and Program Evaluation written by Patricia Burch and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2015-02-18 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed Methods for Policy Research and Program Evaluation by Patricia Burch and Carolyn J. Heinrich equips students, researchers, and policymakers in the social sciences with the tools they need for applying mixed methods in policy research and program evaluation, from design, through data collection, and dissemination. Emphasizing the “how-to”—the set of conceptual and active tasks carried out by mixed methods researchers—the book is illustrated with rich case studies from the authors’ own research projects in education and public policy. These examples help readers identify and explain policy and program impacts and better understand the “why” and “how” of observed effects. Throughout the book, the authors describe challenges that both beginners and advanced scholars are likely to encounter when doing mixed methods research and recommend practical tools available to address them.

Book Logic Modeling Methods in Program Evaluation

Download or read book Logic Modeling Methods in Program Evaluation written by Joy A. Frechtling and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-03-09 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for students, researchers, consultants, professionals, and scholars, Logic Modeling Methods in Program Evaluation provides a step-by-step explanation of logic modeling and its importance in connecting theory with implementation and outcomes in program evaluation in the social sciences. Logic Modeling Methods in Program Evaluation’s comprehensive approach: · Shows how the logic model can be used to clarify assumptions, reach group consensus, and bridge between various disciplines; · Identifies the specific components of logic modeling and discusses inputs, activities, outputs, short and long-term outcomes, contextual factors, and optional components and variations; · Focuses on the critical role of consensus in the development of a logic model, including factors such as teaming, timing, and collaborative learning; · Explores issues such as the most common mistakes in the development and implementation of logic models and the use of logic models in projects with different levels of complexity or different durations; · Discusses how the logic model can be used to identify the range of outcomes to be examined and how summative questions can be prioritized; · Includes a variety of illustrative case studies of simple, multi-year, and complex projects and demonstrates the use of the logic model to establish project goals and evaluate the project’s outcome.

Book Algebraic and Coalgebraic Methods in the Mathematics of Program Construction

Download or read book Algebraic and Coalgebraic Methods in the Mathematics of Program Construction written by Roland Backhouse and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-07-31 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Program construction is about turning specifications of computer software into implementations. Recent research aimed at improving the process of program construction exploits insights from abstract algebraic tools such as lattice theory, fixpoint calculus, universal algebra, category theory, and allegory theory. This textbook-like tutorial presents, besides an introduction, eight coherently written chapters by leading authorities on ordered sets and complete lattices, algebras and coalgebras, Galois connections and fixed point calculus, calculating functional programs, algebra of program termination, exercises in coalgebraic specification, algebraic methods for optimization problems, and temporal algebra.

Book Disrupting Program Evaluation and Mixed Methods Research for a More Just Society

Download or read book Disrupting Program Evaluation and Mixed Methods Research for a More Just Society written by Jori N. Hall and published by IAP. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While women have influenced the fields of program evaluation and mixed methods research, their contributions are rarely acknowledged. In this edited volume, we recognize the contributions Jennifer C. Greene made to evaluation and mixed methods, focusing on how she disrupted traditional ways methods are conceptualized and implemented. We aim to provide a range of perspectives on how Greene disrupted social science theory, methodology, and training through her commitment to the values of democracy, diversity, and dialogue. Accordingly, the volume makes explicit how Greene democratized social science inquiry and training by emphasizing inclusive, culturally responsive, and educative theories, methods, and pedagogical practices. Second, it clarifies how her commitment to diversity supported scholars from diverse disciplinary backgrounds and cultures (within and beyond the United States) and validated often ignored perspectives on phenomena or experiences. And third, it showcases how her commitment to dialogue opened spaces for non-traditional methodological approaches that engage, communicate, and disseminate program evaluation and mixed methods work. Taken together, the first-hand accounts presented in this volume offer a historical perspective and practical guidance on program evaluation and mixed methods conceptualization, implementation, and training. Endorsements: 'The theme of “disruption” in this book is a powerful look at the breadth and significance of Jennifer C. Greene’s distinguished contributions, both theoretical and practical, in evaluation for over 30 years. In essence, these chapters reveal the sustaining power of her scholarship and influence today and likely in years to come. Her recognition that no single method can solve the complex problems faced in evaluation is revealed in the ontological, epistemological, and methodological work she developed on mixed methods, which led to a genre of study that recast the debate about the hegemony of quantitative over qualitative methods and vice versa. She has foregrounded values, the quintessential character of evaluation, by recognizing the multiplicity of perspectives that guide our theories, roles, questions, designs, and perceptions of quality. Jennifer Greene’s generativity is exemplified in her egalitarian dialogic stance, inclusion of voices and context, and commitment to equity. The chapters reflect the impact of her work on scholars who continue to advance evaluation for a more just society.' — Valerie J. Caracelli, U.S. Government Accountability Office 'It is not possible to convey in a few words my strongest endorsement for this volume that begins scratching the surface of Jennifer C. Greene’s many contributions to evaluation theory, methods, and practice. I have worked with and learned from her on many occasions over the years as I grappled with refining my understanding and practice of culturally responsive evaluation. I commend the editors and authors for this first substantive collection providing a more in-depth understanding and appreciation of Jennifer Greene’s body of work for some while providing others the opportunity to revisit the lessons we have learned from her work, spirit, and commitment to make a difference.' — Stafford Hood, Center for Culturally Responsive Evaluation & Assessment (CREA) and Professor Emeritus University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
