Въвеждане на рекурсията чрез абстракция и редици от задачи

Pavel Azalov - Recursion is a powerful technique for producing simple algorithms. It is a main topics in almost every introductory programming course. However, educators often refer to difficulties in learning recursion, and suggest methods for teaching recursion. This paper offers a possible solutions to the problem by (1) expressing the recursive definitions through base operations, which have been predefined as a set of base functions and (2) practising recursion by solving sequences of problems. The base operations are specific for each sequence of problems, resulting in a smooth transitions from recursive definitions to recursive functions. Base functions hide the particularities of the concrete programming language and allows the students to focus solely on the formulation of recursive definitions.

Parameter Identification of a Fed-Batch Cultivation of S. Cerevisiae using Genetic Algorithms

Fermentation processes as objects of modelling and high-quality control are characterized with interdependence and time-varying of process variables that lead to non-linear models with a very complex structure. This is why the conventional optimization methods cannot lead to a satisfied solution. As an alternative, genetic algorithms, like the stochastic global optimization method, can be applied to overcome these limitations. The application of genetic algorithms is a precondition for robustness and reaching of a global minimum that makes them eligible and more workable for parameter identification of fermentation models. Different types of genetic algorithms, namely simple, modified and multi-population ones, have been applied and compared for estimation of nonlinear dynamic model parameters of fed-batch cultivation of S. cerevisiae.
