Abstract
This paper describes ongoing research to develop a system to automatically generate exercises on document type validation. It aims to support multiple text-based document formalisms, currently including JSON and XML. Validation of JSON documents uses JSON Schema and validation of XML uses both XML Schema and DTD. The exercise generator receives as input a document type and produces two sets of documents: valid and invalid instances. Document types written by students must validate the former and invalidate the latter. Exercises produced by this generator can be automatically accessed in a state-of-the-art assessment system. This paper details the proposed approach and describes the design of the system currently being implemented. © José Paulo Leal, Ricardo Queirós, and Marco Primo.

Abstract
The work presented in this article is part of ongoing research on the automated assessment of simple web applications. The proposed algorithm compares two interfaces by mapping their elements, using properties to identify those with the same role in both interfaces. The algorithm proceeds in three stages: firstly, it selects the relevant elements from both interfaces; secondly, it refines elements' attributes, excluding some and computing new ones; finally, it matches elements based on attribute similitude. The article includes an experiment to validate the algorithm as an assessment tool. As part of this experiment, a set of experts classified multiple web interfaces. Statistical analysis found a significant correlation between classifications made by the algorithm and those made by experts. The article also discusses the exploitation of the algorithm's output to access both the layout and functionality of a web interface and produce feedback messages in an automated assessment environment, which is planned as future research.

Abstract
The PAP900 dataset centers on the semantic relationship between affective words in Portuguese. It contains 900 word pairs, each annotated by at least 30 human raters for both semantic similarity and semantic relatedness. In addition to the semantic ratings, the dataset includes the word categorization used to build the word pairs and detailed sociodemographic information about annotators, enabling the analysis of the influence of personal factors on the perception of semantic relationships. Furthermore, this article describes in detail the dataset construction process, from word selection to agreement metrics. Data was collected from Portuguese university psychology students, who completed two rounds of questionnaires. In the first round annotators were asked to rate word pairs on either semantic similarity or relatedness. The second round switched the relation type for most annotators, with a small percentage being asked to repeat the same relation. The instructions given emphasized the differences between semantic relatedness and semantic similarity, and provided examples of expected ratings of both. There are few semantic relations datasets in Portuguese, and none focusing on affective words. PAP900 is distributed in distinct formats to be easy to use for both researchers just looking for the final averaged values and for researchers looking to take advantage of the individual ratings, the word categorization and the annotator data. This dataset is a valuable resource for researchers in computational linguistics, natural language processing, psychology, and cognitive science. (c) 2025TheAuthors.
