English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

It is natural to think of an [Intelligent Educational System] as having more domain knowledge while the learner has better language ability and better general problem-solving skills.

CONT

One enterprising emphasis of the LOGO project was that it was oriented towards young children of about ten or eleven. These children were expected to be able to write computer programs at an early stage in their development of mathematical, logical and problem-solving skills : an expectation based on the LOGO premise that programming helps to develop these skills and not merely to exercise them.

CONT

The goal [of problem-solving environments] is to teach children problem-solving skills that can be applied to many other areas, such as math, science, and social studies, by teaching the child to program the computer.

Initial Design Timeline. This is a straightforward project management step. We will have already boxed out how much overall time we expect to spend on interaction design. However, we won’t have split that time up into specific activities. At this point, we simply take the effort to write out our plan for how we are dividing the design into clusters of activities and how much time we expect to spend cycling through each step of the process.

Record 6 1994-09-30

English

Subject field(s)
  • IT Security
DEF

A virus that originates in the organization in which it is first detected.

CONT

Most universities offer free, often uncontrolled, computer facilities to students. Illegal software copying is widespread, and it is not accidental that there have been a number of virus outbreaks in academic environments, not necessarily caused by "in-house" virus. The technical ability necessary to write a virus is within the reach of a first-year computer science student, who may see such a project as an intellectual challenge.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sécurité des TI
DEF

Virus issu du milieu informatique où il a été repéré, donc fabriqué in situ et non pas transplanté de l'extérieur.

CONT

Dans la majorité des universités, les étudiants ont accès gratuitement à des installations informatiques sans surveillance. Le piratage des logiciels est très répandu et il n'est donc pas étonnant qu'un certain nombre des virus qui se sont déclenchés dans les milieux universitaires ne soient pas des virus «internes». La compétence technique indispensable à l'écriture d'un virus est à la portée d'un étudiant en informatique de première année qui peut trouver dans cet exercice un défi intellectuel.

English

Subject field(s)
  • IT Security
CONT

The technical ability necessary to write a virus is within the reach of a first-year computer science student, who may see such a project as an intellectual challenge. This group is not only a potential source of PC viruses, but also a potential source of mainframe viruses. Whereas average members of the public can buy a cheap PC comparatively easily, they cannot(yet) buy an IBM System 370 or a DECVAX.

CONT

La compétence technique indispensable à l'écriture d'un virus est à la portée d'un étudiant en informatique de première année qui peut trouver dans cet exercice un défi intellectuel. Cette population est une source potentielle non seulement de virus PC mais aussi de virus pour gros ordinateurs. Si le grand public peut se procurer assez facilement un PC à bon marché, il ne peut (encore) acheter un IBM 370 ou DEC VAX. La majorité des étudiants ont accès aux gros ordinateurs et il ne faudra probablement pas attendre longtemps avant que les universités ne soient le point de naissance de virus sur gros ordinateurs.
