Pair programming is one of the practices of extreme programming. It’s a technique in which two
programmers work as a pair together on one workstation. One, the driver, writes code while the other, the
observer, pointer or navigator, reviews each line of code as it is typed in. The programmer types the code
is called driver and the person review the code is called observer or navigator. Some benefits that can
expect from pair programming are: better code, higher morale, better time management, higher
productivity and shared knowledge throughout team.
In this paper nine experiments are conducted on students to evaluate three parameters: programming skills,
number of errors in the program and completion time of program. Results indicate that programming skills
increases and number of errors in the program reduces when students adopt pair programming but in
completion time there is little bit variations. The feedback from the students show the positive result that
pair programming improves knowledge transfer and enjoyment of work.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

2. Introduction
The most common approach to provide online
education is based in courses as fundamental units to
deliver contents and provide communication facilities.
Some Educational Modelling Languages (EMLs) such
as IMS-LD and PoEML provide a means to design and
run scripted courses
Learning sequences or rich structures in which
participants are engaged
3. Introduction (ii)
The life-cycle of an EML-based course is:
Authoring-time
Instantiation-time
Run-time
The problem with the above subdivision is that these
stages are overlapped in real-world practice
During run-time a course may suffer deviations from the
designed behaviour during design-time, in order to
adapt itself to a new situation
4. Introduction (iii)
In this paper:
We make a review of the state-of-the-art of exception
management in scripted collaborative courses in terms
of process metamodel and execution metamodel.
We propose an execution semantics to support run-time
changes in course instances, enabling thus the
resolution of unexpected exceptions.
5. Related Work
IMS Learning Design
This issue has not been seriously addressed.
Coppercore provides neither mechanism for dynamic
modification of learning design nor support for the resolution
of abnormal situation.
Workflow-based collaborative learning
Approaches based on using a generic-purpose workflow
engine to enact collaborative courses rely on the capabilities
of the workflow engine of choice.
Previous work from the authors use jBPM to enact learning
processes. Regrettably, jBPM does not provide mechanisms to
change process definitions at run-time.
6. Background: Analysis of Exceptions
in Scripted Collaborative Courses
Exceptions are deviations from normal execution arising during a process.
Classification of exceptions:
Basic failures
They are triggered by the underlying system
Failure of the DBMS, failure of the operating system, network failure
Application failures
They are triggered by the groupware tools that are used at a task level
An internal error in the groupware tool
Expected exceptions
They are triggered by the execution engine. This kind of exceptions may occur
frequently, therefore they need to be modelled and automated.
A task has reached its deadline, a participant leaves a course in which he/she was
enrolled into, etc.
Unexpected exceptions
They are triggered by a human user when he/she detects that that the semantics of the
process definition does not fulfil the requirements.
The course is over-dimensioned and the teacher wants to skip some tasks, the teacher
wants to correct the process schema, etc.
7. Background (ii)
The exception life-cycle:
Signalling: a software component or a human actor
detect the exception and signal it.
Propagating: the exception signal propagates through a
typical layered architecture.
Handling/resoluting: finally, the exception is handled by
a software component or an authorized user. Three types
of resolution are identified:
Manual resolution
Automatic resolution
Mixed resolution
8. Our approach: Process Language
We present a process language that is a subset of PoEML
(Perspective-oriented EML), and an execution semantics that
allows for run-time changes on the control flow.
Process language:
The process language provides the definition and format of data
involved in learning processes.
The process language takes into account the expected exceptions.
The most relevant elements in our process language are:
Data element: it is a generic container for process variables. A data
element may store information such as a student’s grade, the age of a
student, etc.
Data expression: it is a logic expression with a boolean output that takes
data elements (process variables) as inputs.
Goal: it represents a functional objective. Its state can be directly
inferred from the value of certain data expressions.
Scenario: it provides a context for the rest of elements.
9. Our approach: Execution Semantics
A dynamic model is composed of the following parts
Definition part: the process language
Situation part: it captures information specific to a
particular situation
Execution part: it defines the transition from one
situation to another one
Change part: it defines how a process instance goes from
one state to another one due to a run-time change on the
process definition
10.
11. Managing Process Instances in
Exception Resolution
We describe two methods for dealing with unexpected
exceptions: ad-hoc changes, and dynamic changes.
Ad-hoc changes:
In certain cases, a unexpected exception can only be resolved by
modifying the process instance that triggered that exception
Dynamic changes:
They are changes in the process schema
There are two usage scenarios:
Create a new version of process schema: all process instances further
created will constraint to the new version of the model
Update all process instances: for example, and exception caused by a
groupware tool no longer available will cause the failure of all process
instances that make use of that tool. In consequence, the exception
resolution entails to update all process instances
12. Conclusions
Exceptions are not being adequately handled on
current approaches to scripted collaborative courses
The main contribution of our approach to execution
semantics is to get rid of the dynamic change bug.
In our approach, a process instance is characterized just
by its process variables, and it has no explicit state,
being possible to recalculate it after a run-time change.
