Abstract: An oceaneering test platform device for simulating oceaneering working conditions is disclosed. The oceaneering test platform device comprises a main body, a lifting unit, a plurality of spud legs connected to the main body by the lifting unit, a plurality of base units located correspondingly to the plurality of spud legs and one or more vertical driving unit to enable vertical movement of at least one of the plurality of spud legs. The test platform device facilitates simulation of possible effects caused by unstable and complex ocean environments to an offshore work platform.

Abstract: In an example method, a user interface is presented by a device on a touch sensitive surface of the device. The user interface includes a first portion for displaying a sequence of code and a second portion for displaying suggested bracketed functions. The device receives a first touch gesture dragging a suggested bracketed function from the second portion to the first portion of the user interface. Responsive to receiving the first touch gesture, the suggested bracketed function is inserted into the sequence of code. The bracketed function encloses at least a portion of the sequence of code. The device receives a second touch gesture dragging an end bracket associated with the inserted bracketed function. Responsive to receiving the second touch gesture, the sequence of code is modified such that the bracketed function encloses an additional portion of the sequence of code.

Abstract: A method and system for using a natural language generator for automatic assessment item generation is disclosed. The natural language generator includes a document structure generator that produces an abstract document specification defining a structure for an assessment item based on user input. The abstract document specification is input into a logical schema generator, which produces a logical schema specification that creates a more detailed specification for an assessment item. Finally, a sentence generator receives the logical schema specification and creates natural language for the assessment item based on the variables defined in the logical schema specification.
