The other programs are called applications programs.

    CWIC: Using Images to Passively Browse the Web Quasedra Y. Brown D. Scott McCrickard Computer Information Systems College of Computing and GVU Center Clark Atlanta University Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta, GA 30314 Atlanta, GA 30332 [email protected] [email protected] Advisor: John Stasko ([email protected]) Abstract The World Wide Web has emerged as one of the most widely available and diverse information sources of all time, yet the options for accessing this information are limited. This paper introduces CWIC, the Continuous Web Image Collector, a system that automatically traverses selected Web sites collecting and analyzing images, then presents them to the user using one of a variety of available display mechanisms and layouts. The CWIC mechanisms were chosen because they present the images in a non-intrusive method: the goal is to allow users to stay abreast of Web information while continuing with more important tasks. The various display layouts allow the user to select one that will provide them with little interruptions as possible yet will be aesthetically pleasing. 1 1. Introduction The World Wide Web has emerged as one of the most widely available and diverse information sources of all time. The Web is essentially a multimedia database containing text, graphics, and more on an endless variety of topics. Yet the options for accessing this information are somewhat limited. Browsers are fine for surfing, and search engines and Web starting points can guide users to interesting sites, but these are all active activities that demand the full attention of the user. This paper introduces CWIC, a passive-browsing tool that presents Web information in a non-intrusive and aesthetically pleasing manner.

  • Pointers Getting a Handle on Data
    3RLQWHUV *HWWLQJ D +DQGOH RQ 'DWD Content provided in partnership with Prentice Hall PTR, from the book C++ Without Fear: A Beginner’s Guide That Makes You Feel Smart, 1/e by Brian Overlandà 6 Perhaps more than anything else, the C-based languages (of which C++ is a proud member) are characterized by the use of pointers—variables that store memory addresses. The subject sometimes gets a reputation for being difficult for beginners. It seems to some people that pointers are part of a plot by experienced programmers to wreak vengeance on the rest of us (because they didn’t get chosen for basketball, invited to the prom, or whatever). But a pointer is just another way of referring to data. There’s nothing mysterious about pointers; you will always succeed in using them if you follow simple, specific steps. Of course, you may find yourself baffled (as I once did) that you need to go through these steps at all—why not just use simple variable names in all cases? True enough, the use of simple variables to refer to data is often sufficient. But sometimes, programs have special needs. What I hope to show in this chapter is why the extra steps involved in pointer use are often justified. The Concept of Pointer The simplest programs consist of one function (main) that doesn’t interact with the network or operating system. With such programs, you can probably go the rest of your life without pointers. But when you write programs with multiple functions, you may need one func- tion to hand off a data address to another.

  • KTH Introduction to Opencl
    Introduction to OpenCL David Black-Schaffer [email protected] 1 Disclaimer I worked for Apple developing OpenCL I’m biased Please point out my biases. They help me get a better perspective and may reveal something. 2 What is OpenCL? Low-level language for high-performance heterogeneous data-parallel computation. Access to all compute devices in your system: CPUs GPUs Accelerators (e.g., CELL… unless IBM cancels Cell) Based on C99 Portable across devices Vector intrinsics and math libraries Guaranteed precision for operations Open standard Low-level -- doesn’t try to do everything for you, but… High-performance -- you can control all the details to get the maximum performance. This is essential to be successful as a performance- oriented standard. (Things like Java have succeeded here as standards for reasons other than performance.) Heterogeneous -- runs across all your devices; same code runs on any device. Data-parallel -- this is the only model that supports good performance today. OpenCL has task-parallelism, but it is largely an after-thought and will not get you good performance on today’s hardware. Vector intrinsics will map to the correct instructions automatically. This means you don’t have to write SSE code anymore and you’ll still get good performance on scalar devices. The precision is important as historically GPUs have not cared about accuracy as long as the images looked “good”. These requirements are forcing them to take accuracy seriously.! 3 Open Standard? Huge industry support Driving hardware requirements This is a big deal. Note that the big three hardware companies are here (Intel, AMD, and Nvidia), but that there are also a lot of embedded companies (Nokia, Ericsson, ARM, TI).

Different types of operating systems. 1. 1 INTRODUCTION Operating system (OS) is a program or set of programs, which acts as an interface between a user of the computer & the computer hardware. The main purpose of an OS is to provide an environment in which we can execute programs. The main goals of the OS are (i) To make the computer system convenient to use, (ii) To make the use of computer hardware in efficient way. Operating System is system software, which may be viewed as collection of software consisting of procedures for operating the computer & providing an environment for execution of programs. It’s an interface between user & computer. So an OS makes everything in the computer to work together smoothly & efficiently.

    Herding Cats: Managing a Mobile UNIX Platform Maarten Thibaut and Wout Mertens – Cisco Systems ABSTRACT Laptops running UNIX operating systems are gaining market share. This leads to more sysadmins being asked to support these systems. This paper describes the major technical decisions reached to facilitate the pilot roll out of a mobile Mac OS X platform. We explain which choices we made and why. We also list the main problems we encountered and how they were tackled. We show why in the environment of a customer support organization at Cisco, a file management tool with tripwire-like capabilities is needed. Radmind appears to be the only software base meeting these requirements. We show how the radmind suite can be extended and integrated to suit mobile clients in an enterprise environment. We provide solutions to automate asset tracking and the maintenance of encrypted home directory disk images. We draw conclusions and list the lessons learnt.

    0 Multi-model Databases: A New Journey to Handle the Variety of Data JIAHENG LU, Department of Computer Science, University of Helsinki IRENA HOLUBOVA´ , Department of Software Engineering, Charles University, Prague The variety of data is one of the most challenging issues for the research and practice in data management systems. The data are naturally organized in different formats and models, including structured data, semi- structured data and unstructured data. In this survey, we introduce the area of multi-model DBMSs which build a single database platform to manage multi-model data. Even though multi-model databases are a newly emerging area, in recent years we have witnessed many database systems to embrace this category. We provide a general classification and multi-dimensional comparisons for the most popular multi-model databases. This comprehensive introduction on existing approaches and open problems, from the technique and application perspective, make this survey useful for motivating new multi-model database approaches, as well as serving as a technical reference for developing multi-model database applications.

  • Introduction to Memory Management 1
    CHAPTER 1 Introduction to Memory Management 1 This chapter is a general introduction to memory management on Macintosh computers. It describes how the Operating System organizes and manages the available memory, 1 and it shows how you can use the services provided by the Memory Manager and other Introduction to Memory Management system software components to manage the memory in your application partition effectively. You should read this chapter if your application or other software allocates memory dynamically during its execution. This chapter describes how to ■ set up your application partition at launch time ■ determine the amount of free memory in your application heap ■ allocate and dispose of blocks of memory in your application heap ■ minimize fragmentation in your application heap caused by blocks of memory that cannot move ■ implement a scheme to avoid low-memory conditions You should be able to accomplish most of your application’s memory allocation and management by following the instructions given in this chapter. If, however, your application needs to allocate memory outside its own partition (for instance, in the system heap), you need to read the chapter “Memory Manager” in this book. If your application has timing-critical requirements or installs procedures that execute at interrupt time, you need to read the chapter “Virtual Memory Manager” in this book. If your application’s executable code is divided into multiple segments, you might also want to look at the chapter “Segment Manager” in Inside Macintosh: Processes for guidelines on how to divide your code into segments. If your application uses resources, you need to read the chapter “Resource Manager” in Inside Macintosh: More Macintosh Toolbox for information on managing memory allocated to resources.
