Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleConceptual Software Engineering Applied to Movie Scripts and StoriesSabah Al-FedaghiAccording to researchers, a large proportion of research software (software on which researchers rely) is fragile and the source of numerous problems that plague computational science. This study introduces another application of software engineering tools, conceptual modeling, which can be applied to other fields of research. One way to strengthen the relationship between software engineering and other fields is to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 12 · 17 Dec 2020 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThinging-Based Conceptual Modeling: Case Study of a Tendering SystemSabah Al-Fedaghi, Esraa HaidarIn computer science, models are made explicit to provide formality and a precise understanding of small, contingent “universes” (e.g., an organization), as constructed from stakeholder requirements. Conceptual modeling is a fundamental discipline in this context whose main concerns are identifying, analyzing and describing the critical concepts of a universe of discourse. In the information systems field, one of the reasons … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 15 Apr 2020 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Conceptual Model for Risk Allocation in the Construction IndustryChipozya Kosta Tembo-Silungwe, Nthatisi KhatleliAppropriate risk allocation influences positive project delivery on construction projects while inappropriate allocation results in disputes, quality shortfalls, time and cost overruns. The existing body of knowledge provides guides on how risks should be allocated between the contracting parties. Nevertheless, the full appreciation of risks allocation is rarely given as risk allocation is more than just which party should bear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 26 Jun 2017 · 8,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA STUDY OF FIRST YEAR TERTIARY STUDENTS’ MATHEMATICAL KNOWLEDGE- CONCEPTUAL AND PROCEDURAL KNOWLEDGE, LOGICAL THINKING AND CREATIVITYGurudeo Anand Tularam, Kees HulsmanThis study focuses on students in first year environmental science degree programs where traditionally mathematical emphasis has been much less than the strict science or math majors. The importance now placed in applied mathematics means that students need to gain more conceptual and quantitative knowledge in not only the environmental degree programs but also in most if not all non-mathematical … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 1 Aug 2013 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
