Computer science class will delve into science-fiction - News Course creators Milind Tambe, an associate professor of computer science, and Emma Bowring, a third-year Ph.D. candidate, are currently working to adapt what would usually be a graduate-level coursework to an undergraduate intensity by focusing on the fundamentals. Although there are a handful of classes at other schools that use science-fiction to help students learn about topics such as psychology and physics, neither Tambe nor Bowring has ever heard of such a course being taught in the computer science field. Through this class and the literary examples it draws from, he hopes to share his passion for artificial intelligence with a new generation of students. www.dailytrojan.com /home/news/2006/02/22/News/Computer.Science.Class.Will.Delve.Into.ScienceFiction-1623406.shtml   (361 words)

Ontology (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In both computer science and information science, an ontology is a data model that represents a domain and is used to reason about the objects in that domain and the relations between them. Ontologies vary on whether classes can contain other classes, whether a class can belong to itself, whether there is a universal class (that is, a class containing everything), etc. Sometimes restrictions along these lines are made in order to avoid certain well-known paradoxes. The classes of an ontology may be extensional or intensional in nature. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Ontology_(computer_science)   (1697 words)

Class (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In C++, private methods are visible but not accessible in the interface; however they are commonly made invisible by explicitly declaring fully abstract classes that represent the interfaces of the class. In C++, an abstract class is a class having at least one pure virtual function. An object of class Abstract cannot be created because the function MyVirtualMethod has not been defined (the =0 is C++ syntax for a pure virtual function, a function that must be part of any derived concrete class but is not defined in the abstract base class. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Class_(computer_science)   (4301 words)

Abstract Class | World of Computer Science An abstract class is a so-called superclass, or parent, which functions as a placeholder for items of a common function, and provides a common interface for inherited classes. An abstract class is useful when the contained information is the same as that in an existing class. Functionally, an abstract class is often used to locate incomplete sets of features so that other sub-classes can share the information or add to it, creating a more complete net effect. www.bookrags.com /sciences/computerscience/abstract-class-wcs.html   (242 words)
