ABSTRACT
This paper describes Ardestan, a visual programming language (VPL) for Arduino currently under development. The language is designed with art and design students in mind as novice programmers. Although multitasking and event scheduling are essential for interactive prototypes, novices often face difficulty in implementing these features. By borrowing the language design from Pure Data, a VPL for interactive music, Ardestan facilitates the implementation of multitasking and event scheduling, while generating C++ code for a standalone Arduino system. Such features would be beneficial to support prototyping activity by art and design students in undergraduate interaction design courses.

Visual programming with graph rewriting systems
VL '95: Proceedings of the 11th International IEEE Symposium on Visual LanguagesThe multi-paradigm language PROGRES is the first rule-oriented visual language which has a well-defined type concept and supports programming with graph rewriting systems. To some extent, it has the flavor of a visual database programming language with ...
Heterogeneous visual languages-integrating visual and textual programming
VL '95: Proceedings of the 11th International IEEE Symposium on Visual LanguagesAfter more than a decade of research, visual languages have still not become everyday programming tools. In the short term, an integration of visual languages with well-established (textual) programming languages may be more likely to meet the actual ...
