Spreadsheets, a prime example of end-user programming environments widely used in business for data analysis. However, Excel functionalities have limits compared to dedicated programming languages. This paper addresses this gap by proposing a prototype for integrating Python’s capabilities into Excel through on-premises desktop to build custom spreadsheet functions with Python. This approach overcomes potential latency issues associated with cloud-based solutions. This prototype utilizes Excel-DNA and IronPython. Excel-DNA allows creating custom Python functions that seamlessly integrate with Excel’s calculation engine. IronPython enables the execution of these Python (CSFs) directly within Excel. C# and VSTO add-ins form the core components, facilitating communication between Python and Excel. This approach empowers users with a potentially open-ended set of Python (CSFs) for tasks like mathematical calculations, statistical analysis, and even predictive modeling, all within the familiar Excel interface. This prototype demonstrates smooth integration, allowing users to call Python (CSFs) just like standard Excel functions. This research contributes to enhancing spreadsheet capabilities for end-user programmers by leveraging Python’s power within Excel. Future research could explore expanding data analysis capabilities by expanding the (CSFs) functions for complex calculations, statistical analysis, data manipulation, and even external library integration. The possibility of integrating machine learning models through the (CSFs) functions within the familiar Excel environment.展开更多
文摘Quantum software development utilizes quantum phenomena such as superposition and entanglement to address problems that are challenging for classical systems.However,it must also adhere to critical quantum constraints,notably the no-cloning theorem,which prohibits the exact duplication of unknown quantum states and has profound implications for cryptography,secure communication,and error correction.While existing quantum circuit representations implicitly honor such constraints,they lack formal mechanisms for early-stage verification in software design.Addressing this constraint at the design phase is essential to ensure the correctness and reliability of quantum software.This paper presents a formal metamodeling framework using UML-style notation and and Object Constraint Language(OCL)to systematically capture and enforce the no-cloning theorem within quantum software models.The proposed metamodel formalizes key quantum concepts—such as entanglement and teleportation—and encodes enforceable invariants that reflect core quantum mechanical laws.The framework’s effectiveness is validated by analyzing two critical edge cases—conditional copying with CNOT gates and quantum teleportation—through instance model evaluations.These cases demonstrate that the metamodel can capture nuanced scenarios that are often mistaken as violations of the no-cloning theorem but are proven compliant under formal analysis.Thus,these serve as constructive validations that demonstrate the metamodel’s expressiveness and correctness in representing operations that may appear to challenge the no-cloning theorem but,upon rigorous analysis,are shown to comply with it.The approach supports early detection of conceptual design errors,promoting correctness prior to implementation.The framework’s extensibility is also demonstrated by modeling projective measurement,further reinforcing its applicability to broader quantum software engineering tasks.By integrating the rigor of metamodeling with fundamental quantum mechanical principles,this work provides a structured,model-driven approach that enables traditional software engineers to address quantum computing challenges.It offers practical insights into embedding quantum correctness at the modeling level and advances the development of reliable,error-resilient quantum software systems.

文摘This paper focuses on the problems,opportunities,and challenges faced by software engineering education in the new era.We have studied the core ideas of the new model and reform,the specific measures implemented,and the challenges and solutions faced.The new model and reform must focus on cultivating practical abilities,introducing interdisciplinary knowledge,and strengthening innovation awareness and entrepreneurial spirit.The process of reform and innovation is carried out from the aspects of teaching methods,teaching means,and course performance evaluation in the teaching practice of software engineering courses.We adopt a method of“question guiding,simple and easy to understand,flexible and diverse,and emphasizing practical results”,optimizing the curriculum design,providing diverse learning opportunities,and establishing a platform for the industry-university-research cooperation.Our teaching philosophy is to adhere to the viewpoint of innovative teaching ideas,optimizing teaching methods and teaching means,and comprehensively improving the teaching quality and level of software engineering education.
文摘End-user computing empowers non-developers to manage data and applications, enhancing collaboration and efficiency. Spreadsheets, a prime example of end-user programming environments widely used in business for data analysis. However, Excel functionalities have limits compared to dedicated programming languages. This paper addresses this gap by proposing a prototype for integrating Python’s capabilities into Excel through on-premises desktop to build custom spreadsheet functions with Python. This approach overcomes potential latency issues associated with cloud-based solutions. This prototype utilizes Excel-DNA and IronPython. Excel-DNA allows creating custom Python functions that seamlessly integrate with Excel’s calculation engine. IronPython enables the execution of these Python (CSFs) directly within Excel. C# and VSTO add-ins form the core components, facilitating communication between Python and Excel. This approach empowers users with a potentially open-ended set of Python (CSFs) for tasks like mathematical calculations, statistical analysis, and even predictive modeling, all within the familiar Excel interface. This prototype demonstrates smooth integration, allowing users to call Python (CSFs) just like standard Excel functions. This research contributes to enhancing spreadsheet capabilities for end-user programmers by leveraging Python’s power within Excel. Future research could explore expanding data analysis capabilities by expanding the (CSFs) functions for complex calculations, statistical analysis, data manipulation, and even external library integration. The possibility of integrating machine learning models through the (CSFs) functions within the familiar Excel environment.
