An innovative approach to teaching refactoring

Refactoring is the process of transforming the internal structure of existing code while keeping the integrity of the code\u27s functional requirements. Refactoring is proven to increase program maintainability, flexibility, and understandability and is recognized as a best practice in the software development community. However, with the exception of courses or lectures on extreme programming, refactoring is overlooked in the computer science curriculum. This paper helps demystify refactoring by introducing an incremental approach for teaching refactoring on the college level. Through this hands-on approach, refactoring can become an integral component in the computer science curriculum and an innovative means of reinforcing software engineering principles and good development practices. The approach and three introductory lessons are presented in this paper

Teaching students to build well formed object-oriented methods through refactoring

Refactoring is the process of transforming the internal structure of existing code while keeping the integrity of the code\u27s functional requirements. Refactoring is proven to increase program maintainability, flexibility, and understandability and is recognized as a best practice in the software development community. However, with the exception of courses or lectures on extreme programming, refactoring is overlooked in the computer science curriculum. This paper presents the fourth lesson of an innovative pedagogical approach to teaching refactoring on the college level. This lesson covers the creation of well formed object-oriented methods including characteristics for evaluating such methods. Through this hands-on approach, building well formed object-oriented methods through refactoring can be better understood and integrated into the computer science curriculum

Verstaerkte Erschliessung des Verwertungspotentials von Baustellenabfaellen durch organisatorische und technische Massnahmen Schlussbericht

Aim of this research project was to set up organizational and technical measures for the intensified development of the building construction waste's recycling potential. This was mainly done by an estimation of the composition and the amount of future building construction waste depending on type, extent and state of the building site. In addition the technical realizability of separate collection on the building site was checked and a manual was developed which was proved in practice and turned into action. This was the basis for the advice or the organization and procedurs on different building sites. The economic impacts, that means the organizational and financial additional expenditure, were shown. Furthermore the separate fractions were checked in view of their recycability and their environmental impacts. And the results were compared with the results of those form processing plants. Besides the efficiency of sorting and processing plants was analysed.

Offshore and Multi-Use Aquaculture with Extractive Species: Seaweeds and Bivalves

Aquaculture of extractive species, such as bivalves and macroalgae, already supplies a large amount of the production consumed worldwide, and further production is steadily increasing. Moving aquaculture operations off the coast as well as combining various uses at one site, commonly called multi-use aquaculture, is still in its infancy. Various projects worldwide, pioneered in Germany and later accompanied by other European projects, such as in Belgium, The Netherlands, Norway, as well as other international projects in the Republic of Korea and the USA, to name a few, started to invest in robust technologies and to investigate in system design needed that species can be farmed to market size in high energy environments. There are a few running enterprises with extractive species offshore, however, multi-use scenarios as well as offshore IMTA concepts are still on project scale. This will change soon as the demand is dramatically increasing and space is limited
