    Selig Adler was born in Baltimore, Maryland on Janury 22, 1909. He graduated from the University of Buffalo in 1931. Selig Adler received his Master’s in 1932 and his Doctorate in 1934 both from the University of Illinois. In 1938, Dr. Selig Adler joined the history faculty of SUNY University at Buffalo. He became a full professor in 1952. In 1958, Dr. Adler was named the Samuel Paul Capen Professor of History, he retained the title until he retired in 1980. In 1975, he was named a State University of New York “Distinguished Service Professor.” Dr. Adler wrote several scholarly publications including The Isolationist Impulse (1957) and The Uncertain Giant (1965). He was the co-author with Thomas E. Connolly on a comprehensive history of the Jewish community in Buffalo titled From Ararat to Suburbia. In 1980, Dr. Adler became Archivist of the Jewish Federation of Greater Buffalo. Their archives are now named after him and were located in the E. H. Butler Library at SUNY Buffalo State until their transfer to the SUNY University at Buffalo, Archive & Manuscript Collection. Dr. Selig Adler died in Buffalo on November 8, 1984.https://digitalcommons.buffalostate.edu/bsc_oral_history/1024/thumbnail.jp

    XLBlocks: a Block-based Formula Editor for Spreadsheet Formulas

    No full text
    Spreadsheets are frequently used in industry to support critical business decisions. Unfortunately, they also suffer from error-proneness, which sometimes results in costly consequences. Experiments in the field of program education have shown that programmers tend to make fewer errors and can better focus on the logic of a program if they use a block-based language instead of a textual one. We hypothesize that a block-based formula editor could support spreadsheet users in a similar way. Therefore, we develop XLBlocks and conduct a think-aloud study with 13 experienced spreadsheet users from industry. Participants are asked to create and edit several formulas, using our block-based language. We then ask them to evaluate this editor using the Cognitive Dimensions of Notations framework. We found that for all dimensions the block-based formula editor received a better evaluation than the default text-based formula editor.Accepted author manuscriptSoftware Engineerin

    Towards language-parametric semantic editor services based on declarative type system specifications

    No full text
    Editor services assist programmers to more effectively write and comprehend code. Implementing editor services correctly is not trivial. This paper focuses on the specification of semantic editor services, those that use the semantic model of a program. The specification of refactorings is a common subject of study, but many other semantic editor services have received little attention. We propose a language-parametric approach to the definition of semantic editor services, using a declarative specification of the static semantics of the programming language, and constraint solving. Editor services are specified as constraint problems, and language specifications are used to ensure correctness. We describe our approach for the following semantic editor services: reference resolution, find usages, goto subclasses, code completion, and the extract definition refactoring. We do this in the context of Statix, a constraint language for the specification of type systems. We investigate the specification of editor services in terms of Statix constraints, and the requirements these impose on a suitable solver.Programming Language
