Software Version: 8.0 12/09/04 2.0 Kernel 8.0 documentation Technical Writer—Thom Blom, reformatting/revision. Oakland OIFO This is the initial complete reformatting of the Kernel Systems Management Guide since its original release in July 1995. The largest change with the Kernel Systems Management Guide is that all developer-specific content has been extracted and placed into a new Kernel Developer's Guide. Also, at this point in time, only minimal content updates have been made based on select released Kernel patches. Due to time constraints, not all released Kernel patches with content changes have been added at this time. We wanted to get a new baseline document published so that in the future we can more easily update the Kernel Systems Management Guide. As time allows, we will be updating this reformatted manual with all released patch information that affects its content. Because of the chapter-numbering scheme, future additions can be made with minimal disruption to the entire manual page flow. Thanks for your patience!

  • A Prolog-Based Proof Tool for Type Theory Taλ and Implicational Intuitionistic-Logic
    A Prolog-based Proof Tool for Type Theory TAλ and Implicational Intuitionistic-Logic L. Yohanes Stefanus University of Indonesia Depok 16424, Indonesia [email protected] and Ario Santoso∗ Technische Universit¨atDresden Dresden 01187, Germany [email protected] Abstract Studies on type theory have brought numerous important contributions to computer science. In this paper we present a GUI-based proof tool that provides assistance in constructing deductions in type theory and validating implicational intuitionistic-logic for- mulas. As such, this proof tool is a testbed for learning type theory and implicational intuitionistic-logic. This proof tool focuses on an important variant of type theory named TAλ, especially on its two core algorithms: the principal-type algorithm and the type inhabitant search algorithm. The former algorithm finds a most general type assignable to a given λ-term, while the latter finds inhabitants (closed λ-terms in β-normal form) to which a given type can be assigned. By the Curry{Howard correspondence, the latter algorithm provides provability for implicational formulas in intuitionistic logic. We elab- orate on how to implement those two algorithms declaratively in Prolog and the overall GUI-based program architecture. In our implementation, we make some modification to improve the performance of the principal-type algorithm. We have also built a web-based version of the proof tool called λ-Guru. 1 Introduction In 1902, Russell revealed the inconsistency in naive set theory. This inconsistency challenged the foundation of mathematics at that time. To solve that problem, type theory was introduced [1, 5]. As time goes on, type theory becomes widely used, it becomes a logician's standard tool, especially in proof theory.

  • PC Literacy II
    Computer classes at The Library East Brunswick Public Library PC Literacy II Common Window Elements Most windows have common features, so once you become familiar with one program, you can use that knowledge in another program. Double-click the Internet Explorer icon on the desktop to start the program. Locate the following items on the computer screen. • Title bar: The top bar of a window displaying the title of the program and the document. • Menu bar: The bar containing names of menus, located below the title bar. You can use the menus on the menu bar to access many of the tools available in a program by clicking on a word in the menu bar. • Minimize button: The left button in the upper-right corner of a window used to minimize a program window. A minimized program remains open, but is visible only as a button on the taskbar. • Resize button: The middle button in the upper-right corner of a window used to resize a program window. If a program window is full-screen size it fills the entire screen and the Restore Down button is displayed. You can use the Restore Down button to reduce the size of a program window. If a program window is less than full-screen size, the Maximize button is displayed. You can use the Maximize button to enlarge a program window to full-screen size. • Close button: The right button in the upper-right corner of a window used to quit a program or close a document window – the X • Scroll bars: A vertical bar on the side of a window and a horizontal bar at the bottom of the window are used to move around in a document.

The document focuses on raising awareness of the issues that go into the design of a software specification. As LIGO construction approaches completion and the interferometers become operational, the data analysis system must also approach completion and become operational. Through the integration of the detector and the data analysis system, LIGO evolves from being an operational instrument to being an operational grav- itational wave detector. All aspects of software design which are critical to the specifications for the LIGO data analysis are introduced with the preface that they will be utilized in requirements for the LIGO data analysis system which drive the milestones necessary to achieve this goal. Much of the LIGO data analysis system will intersect with the LIGO diagnostics system, espe- cially in the areas of software specifications.

  • IDE-JASMIN an Interactive Graphical Approach for Parallel Programming in Scientific Computing
    IDE-JASMIN An Interactive Graphical Approach for Parallel Programming in Scientific Computing Liao Li, Zhang Aiqing, Yang Zhang, Wang Wei and Jing Cuiping Institute of Applied Physics and Computational Mathematics, No. 2, East Fenghao Road, Beijing, China Keywords: Parallel Programming, Integrator Component, Integrated Development Environment, Structured Flow Chart. Abstract: A major challenge in scientific computing lays in the rapid design and implementation of parallel applications for complex simulations. In this paper, we develop an interactive graphical system to address this challenge. Our system is based on JASMIN infrastructure and outstands three key features. First, to facilitate the organization of parallel data communication and computation, we encapsulate JASMIN integrator component models as user-configurable components. Second, to support the top-down design of the application, we develop a structured-flow-chart based visual programming approach. Third, to finally generate application code, we develop a powerful code generation engine, which can generate major part of the application code using information in flow charts and component configurations. We also utilize the FORTRAN 90 standard to assist users write numerical kernels. These approaches are integrated and implemented in IDE-JASMIN to ease parallel programming for domain experts. Real applications demonstrate that our approaches for developing complex numerical applications are both practical and efficient. 1 INTRODUCTION data access and manipulation, respectively. Using JASMIN, users need implement several subclasses “J Adaptive Structured Meshes applications of strategy classes in C++ language though they Infrastructure” (JASMIN) is an infrastructure for mainly focus on writing numerical subroutine in structured mesh and SAMR applications for FORTRAN. numerical simulations of complex systems on The limited popularization of JASMIN is parallel computers (Mo et al., 2010).
