Comparison of health and environmental impact of energy systems (original) (raw)

This paper introduces a new learner's self-assessment environment as a computing environment for human learning (CEHL) that allows comparison of learners' C++ object-oriented programs with those elaborated by the teacher. The subjacent idea is to indirectly compare object-oriented programs through their graphical representations described by UML class and communication diagrams. CEHL allows: (1) the generation of UML diagrams from the learners' programs, and (2) algorithmic matching of programs to measure degrees of similarity and dissimilarity between UML diagrams. The resultant CEHL system has been tested and the results showed significant reliability of the proposed approach.
