    INKSCAPE – FREE VECTOR GRAPHICS EDITOR Grabareva A. Supervisor: Voevodina M. E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Kharkiv, О.М. Beketov National University of Urban Economy in Kharkiv Inkscape is a cross-platform, powerful enough and in many ways competitive free vector graphics editor with open source code, and in which the SVG format is used as the main standard for work. It is convenient for creating both artistic and technical illustrations. Inkscape is an analogue of such graphic editors as Corel Draw, Adobe Illustrator, Xara X and Freehand. Intended use: - illustrations for office circulars, presentations, creation of logos, business cards, posters; - technical illustrations (diagrams, graphics, etc.); - vector graphics for high-quality printing (with preliminary import of SVG into Scribus); - web graphics – from banners to site layouts, icons for applications and website buttons, - graphics for games. Main characteristics of Inkscape: - the program is free and distributed under the GNU General Public License; - cross-platform; - the program supports the following document formats: import – almost all popular and frequently used formats: SVG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, EPS, PDF, PNG, ICO, and many additional ones, such as SVGZ, EMF, PostScript, AI, Dia, Sketch, TIFF, XPM, WMF, WPG, GGR, ANI, CUR, PCX, PNM, RAS, TGA, WBMP, XBM, XPM; export – the main formats are PNG and SVG and many additional EPS, PostScript, PDF, Dia, AI, Sketch, POV-Ray, LaTeX, OpenDocument Draw, GPL, EMF, POV, DXF; - there is support for layers; -

  • The Gnome Desktop Comes to Hp-Ux
    GNOME on HP-UX Stormy Peters Hewlett-Packard Company 970-898-7277 [email protected] THE GNOME DESKTOP COMES TO HP-UX by Stormy Peters, Jim Leth, and Aaron Weber At the Linux World Expo in San Jose last August, a consortium of companies, including Hewlett-Packard, inaugurated the GNOME Foundation to further the goals of the GNOME project. An organization of open-source software developers, the GNOME project is the major force behind the GNOME desktop: a powerful, open-source desktop environment with an intuitive user interface, a component-based architecture, and an outstanding set of applications for both developers and users. The GNOME Foundation will provide resources to coordinate releases, determine future project directions, and promote GNOME through communication and press releases. At the same conference in San Jose, Hewlett-Packard also announced that GNOME would become the default HP-UX desktop environment. This will enhance the user experience on HP-UX, providing a full feature set and access to new applications, and also will allow commonality of desktops across different vendors' implementations of UNIX and Linux. HP will provide transition tools for migrating users from CDE to GNOME, and support for GNOME will be available from HP. Those users who wish to remain with CDE will continue to be supported. Hewlett-Packard, working with Ximian, Inc. (formerly known as Helix Code), will be providing the GNOME desktop on HP-UX. Ximian is an open-source desktop company that currently employs many of the original and current developers of GNOME, including Miguel de Icaza. They have developed and contributed applications such as Evolution and Red Carpet to GNOME.

  • Video Compression Optimized for Racing Drones
    Video compression optimized for racing drones Henrik Theolin Computer Science and Engineering, master's level 2018 Luleå University of Technology Department of Computer Science, Electrical and Space Engineering Video compression optimized for racing drones November 10, 2018 Preface To my wife and son always! Without you I'd never try to become smarter. Thanks to my supervisor Staffan Johansson at Neava for providing room, tools and the guidance needed to perform this thesis. To my examiner Rickard Nilsson for helping me focus on the task and reminding me of the time-limit to complete the report. i of ii Video compression optimized for racing drones November 10, 2018 Abstract This thesis is a report on the findings of different video coding tech- niques and their suitability for a low powered lightweight system mounted on a racing drone. Low latency, high consistency and a robust video stream is of the utmost importance. The literature consists of multiple comparisons and reports on the efficiency for the most commonly used video compression algorithms. These reports and findings are mainly not used on a low latency system but are testing in a laboratory environment with settings unusable for a real-time system. The literature that deals with low latency video streaming and network instability shows that only a limited set of each compression algorithms are available to ensure low complexity and no added delay to the coding process. The findings re- sulted in that AVC/H.264 was the most suited compression algorithm and more precise the x264 implementation was the most optimized to be able to perform well on the low powered system.

  • Chapter 1 Surveying Chapter 1 Surveying Part 650 Engineering Field Handbook
    United States Department of Part 650 Agriculture Natural Engineering Field Handbook Resources Conservation Service Chapter 1 Surveying Chapter 1 Surveying Part 650 Engineering Field Handbook Issued October 2008 Cover illustration: Roman groma The early Roman surveyors used an instrument called the groma to lay out their cities and roads by right angles. The word “groma” is thought to have come from the root Greek word “gnome,” which is defined as the pointer of a sundial. The importance of turning right angles is shown in the layout of several cities in northern Italy, as well as North Africa. The land was subdi- vided into 2,400 Roman feet square. Each square was called a centuria. The centurias were crossed by road at right angles to each other. The roads that ran north-south were called cardines, and the roads that ran east-west were called decumani. The groma was also used to locate and place monumen- tation for property corners. Once the centurias were in place, maps were drawn on bronze tablets giving a physical representation of the centuria. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, and where applicable, sex, marital status, familial status, parental status, religion, sexual orientation, genetic information, political beliefs, re- prisal, or because all or a part of an individual’s income is derived from any public assistance program. (Not all prohibited bases apply to all programs.) Persons with disabilities who require alternative means for communication of program information (Braille, large print, audiotape, etc.) should contact USDA’s TARGET Center at (202) 720-2600 (voice and TDD).
