Andre Oboler, Charles Twardy and David Albrecht, Super Iterator: A design pattern for Algorithm and Data structure collections, ITNG 2007
Abstract The Super Iterator pattern, like the standard Iterator pattern, traverses an unknown data structure without exposing that structure. With the standard Iterator pattern, clients must create a different iterator for each new structure, and the object returned must be of the specific type stored in the structure, even when they share a common super […]

Andre Oboler, Examining the use of Software Engineering by Computer Science Researchers, Education Students’ Third Regional Research Conference

A Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is seldom considered, commenting is scarce, and external documentation consists of erasure marks left on whiteboards. Configuration management is paid lip-service, but is not standard practice. This paper examines reasons behind the apparent large-scale non-adoption of software engineering in […]
