Add to basketThis volume contains the papers presented at the 8th Workshop on Computing: Theory and Practice, WCTP 2018 and is devoted to theoretical and practical approaches to computation. The conference was organized by four top universities in Japan and the Philippines: the Tokyo Institute of Technology, Osaka University, the University of the Philippines Diliman, and De La Salle University. The proceedings provide a broad view of the recent developments in computer science research in Asia, with an emphasis on Japan and the Philippines. The papers focus on both theoretical and practical aspects of computations, such as programming language theory, modeling of software systems, empathic computing, and various applications of information technology.
The book will be of interest to academic and industrial researchers interested in recent developments in computer science research.
Shin-ya Nishizaki is Full Professor at the Global Scientific Information and Computing Center, Tokyo Institute of Technology and Associate Professor, Department of Computer Science, Graduate School of Information Science and Engineering, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan. He received a Ph.D. in 1994 from Kyoto University for a thesis entitled "Simply Typed Lambda Calculus with First-class Environments".
Masayuki Numao is professor at the Information and Physical Sciences, Graduate School of Information Science and Technology, Osaka University. He is performing research on the development of computers provided with learning capability and has supported the completion of information environment by sending to the world numerous new technologies, such as high-efficient algorithms, background knowledge acquirement for learning, applications intended for intelligent tutoring systems (ITS).
Merlin Teodosia Suarez is professor at the College of Computer Studies, Software Technology at De La Salle University, where she also earned her PhD in Computer Science in 2008. She worked on automatic analysis of student misconceptions learning object-oriented programming in Java. She proceeded to work on emotion-aware systems focusing on education and health-care applications. She is currently investigating approaches to provide support to individuals diagnosed in the autism spectrum disorder, and stroke patients requiring physical therapy.
