The PROMIS Project is an ongoing EU Tempus Project for setting up ISC (Informatics as a Second Competence) Master's degrees in Central Asia. We are more specifically concerned with ensuring the vocational aspect of studies and tightening the relationships between companies and universities in this project. To meet these goals we mainly propose to base the curricula organization on both reverse teaching and apprenticeship. As we also want the degrees to be part of an international network many tasks of the project are dedicated to sharing and discussing pedagogical materials and methods between European and Central Asia partners. This paper contains a general presentation of the PROMIS Project and a focus on the organization of pedagogical workshops that are its most important pedagogy sharing task.

The ERAMIS acronym stands for European-Russian-Central Asian Network of Master's degrees “Informatics as a Second Competence”. The aim of this project is to create a Master degree “Computer Science as a Second Competence” in 9 beneficiary universities located in Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan and Russia. One crucial aspect of the project is training. In this contribution we describe how training sessions have been organized, the pedagogical issues that are involved and ways to address them.

This paper's primary aim is to improve the understanding of the delegation mechanism as defined in [18]. We propose a new characterization of delegation based on the notions of name sharing, property sharing and value sharing. It allows us (1) to clearly differentiate delegation from class-inheritance in particular and more generally from other inheritance mechanisms and (2) to explain how a founded use of delegation relies on a correct semantics of variable property sharing between objects connected by a delegation link. We then describe a model of split objects which is proposed as an example of a disciplined and semantically founded use of delegation, where property sharing expresses viewpoints within objects.
