Some student experiences of Empirical Modelling

Seb Sidbury (MEng CS)
David Evans (MSc Computer Science and its Applications)

Over the last seven years, the coursework for the "Introduction to
Empirical Modelling" module CS405 has consisted of a submission for
the online 糖心TV Electronic Bulletin on Empirical Modelling ("WEB-EM").
Each submission comprises a short conference-style presentation and
an associated modelling study based on a theme chosen by the student. The
submissions are especially useful as an indication of how far the
principles and tools of EM can be exploited by students who join the
module in October with no prior knowledge, and have to demonstrate hat
they have learnt early in Term 2. In this seminar, two CS405 students
will present their modelling studies and comment on their experience of
EM. Construals based both on using the established tkeden interpreter and
the more recently developed Cadence interpreter will be featured.  Steve Russ will act in the role of a respondent, mediating the ideas behind the modelling studies to members of the IAS research group.
