TL;DR: This simulation shows that the number of 'splots', which denotes the extent of spilled oil, is a vital factor for GNOME running stability when the number is less than 500, and oil spill area information obtained from satellite sensors, especially SAR, is an important factor for setting up the initial model conditions.
TL;DR: The GNOME environment is described, lessons learned in adapting structure editors to novice programmers are recounted, and its effectiveness as a teaching environment is discussed.
Abstract: Structure editors have frequently been used as powerful and unifying interfaces for programming environments in computer science research settings. Few, however, have found their way into common use. GNOME is an attempt to channel the experience gained in the use of structure editing for software development environment research of the Gandalf Project into a practical novice programming environment. Based on a family of structure editors, it is currently being used to teach programming to undergraduates at Carnegie-Mellon University. This paper describes the GNOME environment, recounts lessons learned in adapting structure editors to novice programmers, and discusses its effectiveness as a teaching environment.
