Video structure discovery aims at the understanding and construction of spatio-temporal structures of video programs at the syntactic as well as the semantic levels.
Object oriented and pattern based metaphors for software present a solid engineering base for software understanding and construction, but sometimes impose a high performance overhead.
Depending on the conceptualisation of understanding and construction (or: science and engineering), related practices such as in silico modelling for enhancing understanding or enabling engineering can either be seen as incommensurable or 'two sides of one coin'.
This notion is based on the implicit assumption that understanding and construction (or science and engineering) are, in themselves, 'two sides of the same coin.' Moreover, synthetic biology has been framed as an approach that encompasses understanding as well as control, construction, and creation.
The combination of GIS and qualitative interviews allows analyzing the underlying drivers for the different attribution in detail with respect to different perceptions, understandings, and constructions of vulnerability.
The creation of a multi-disciplinary program, built on a digital information ecology and student-focussed praxis, has created both a curriculum and learning approach that has facilitated understanding and knowledge construction in more dynamic ways, connecting experiences, reflective practices and online participatory experiences that epitomize a 'new culture of learning'.
These stages of Text Charting (comprehending) rhetorical analysis (understanding) and map construction (conceptualising) are explained and discussed; a framework of functional predicates is proposed, and the process of conceptual mapping is illustrated.
