A Graphical User Interface for PHAST GoPhast: A Graphical User Interface for PHAST Techniques and Methods 6-A20 U.S. Department of the Interior U.S. Geological Survey Cover: GoPhast screen view for Example 2 (p. 74). The grid has been colored to show the distribution of initial hydraulic head. The status bar (at bottom) shows the coordinates of the mouse cursor, the column and row numbers at the cursor position, the value of initial head in the user’s choice of units at the cursor position, and a description of how the initial head value at that location was specified.

  • Dealing with Document Size Limits
    Dealing with Document Size Limits Introduction The Electronic Case Filing system will not accept PDF documents larger than ten megabytes (MB). If the document size is less than 10 MB, it can be filed electronically just as it is. If it is larger than 10 MB, it will need to be divided into two or more documents, with each document being less than 10 MB. Word Processing Documents Documents created with a word processing program (such as WordPerfect or Microsoft Word) and correctly converted to PDF will generally be smaller than a scanned document. Because of variances in software, usage, and content, it is difficult to estimate the number of pages that would constitute 10 MB. (Note: See “Verifying File Size” below and for larger documents, see “Splitting PDF Documents into Multiple Documents” below.) Scanned Documents Although the judges’ Filing Preferences indicate a preference for conversion of documents rather than scanning, it will be necessary to scan some documents for filing, e.g., evidentiary attachments must be scanned. Here are some things to remember: • Documents scanned to PDF are generally much larger than those converted through a word processor. • While embedded fonts may be necessary for special situations, e.g., trademark, they will increase the file size. • If graphs or color photos are included, just a few pages can easily exceed the 10 MB limit. Here are some guidelines: • The court’s standard scanner resolution is 300 dots per inch (DPI). Avoid using higher resolutions as this will create much larger file sizes. • Normally, the output should be set to black and white.

  • Visual Validation of SSL Certificates in the Mozilla Browser Using Hash Images
    CS Senior Honors Thesis: Visual Validation of SSL Certificates in the Mozilla Browser using Hash Images Hongxian Evelyn Tay [email protected] School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Advisor: Professor Adrian Perrig Electrical & Computer Engineering Engineering & Public Policy School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Monday, May 03, 2004 Abstract Many internet transactions nowadays require some form of authentication from the server for security purposes. Most browsers are presented with a certificate coming from the other end of the connection, which is then validated against root certificates installed in the browser, thus establishing the server identity in a secure connection. However, an adversary can install his own root certificate in the browser and fool the client into thinking that he is connected to the correct server. Unless the client checks the certificate public key or fingerprint, he would never know if he is connected to a malicious server. These alphanumeric strings are hard to read and verify against, so most people do not take extra precautions to check. My thesis is to implement an additional process in server authentication on a browser, using human recognizable images. The process, Hash Visualization, produces unique images that are easily distinguishable and validated. Using a hash algorithm, a unique image is generated using the fingerprint of the certificate. Images are easily recognizable and the user can identify the unique image normally seen during a secure AND accurate connection. By making a visual comparison, the origin of the root certificate is known. 1. Introduction: The Problem 1.1 SSL Security The SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) Protocol has improved the state of web security in many Internet transactions, but its complexity and neglect of human factors has exposed several loopholes in security systems that use it.

Some previous investigations have shown hierarchies has become an important research topic in today’s that computer users spend substantial time and effort in just intelligent user interface design. This paper reports on finding files [1, 10, 11]. Thus, designing intelligent user interfaces FolderPredictor, a software system that can reduce the cost of that can help users quickly locate the desired files has emerged as locating files in hierarchical folders. FolderPredictor applies a an important research topic. cost-sensitive prediction algorithm to the user’s previous file Previous research on helping users find files has focused on access information to predict the next folder that will be accessed. building Personal Information Management (PIM) systems in Experimental results show that, on average, FolderPredictor which documents are organized by their properties [5, 7]. These reduces the cost of locating a file by 50%.

  • Student Guide to Take-Home Exams
    Student Guide to Take-Home Exams Instructors at the Earle Mack School of Law have the option of giving their final exams in the traditional in-class format or in take-home format. While in-class exams typically make use of the Securexam Student software, take-home exams require only a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Safari) and Microsoft Word. While no special software is needed, there are some specific instructions that must be followed to insure that you are able to access and complete your take-home exam and submit it for grading. General Information about Take-Home Exams Download Your Exam – Log in to the PlanetSSI website and download the exam question(s). Complete Your Exam – Answer the exam questions in Microsoft Word. Prepare Your Exam For Uploading – Remove your non-anonymous information from the exam response, insert your anonymous exam ID, and save it in an appropriate format. Upload Your Exam – Log in to PlanetSSI and upload your file to the appropriate class. Check Your Exam Status – See exactly when you downloaded or uploaded an exam. Troubleshooting Tips and Getting Help – If you have problems with any of the above, check here first. General Information about Take-Home Exams There are a few significant differences between in-class and take-home exams. Specifically: You do not use Securexam Student for take-home exams; you’ll type your exam answer into Microsoft Word. Since Word lacks the integrated anonymity features of Securexam Student, you need to take specific steps to ensure that all personally-identifiable information (other than your exam ID) is removed from your document before uploading it to PlanetSSI.

  • The Hic Tool Is a Graphical User Interface(GUI)
    Introduction: The Hi­C tool is a graphical user interface(GUI) implementation and compilation of the Bayesian 3D constructor for Hi­C data (BACH) and BACH­MIX, an extended BACH algorithm to characterize structural variations of chromatin folding. The tool’s purpose is to allow a more user friendly way of data input. This manual will explain how to use the software and the various functionalities. Setup: For the program to work, R is required. Please install R and add it to the environment path. 1. From the desktop, right­click My Computer and click Properties. 2. Go to Advanced System Setting. 3. In the Advance tab, click on environment variables. 4. Under the System variables section, find Path, highlight it and click Edit. 5. Add the path to R into the line, separated by a semi­colon. ( ; ) Example: if R is installed under C:\Program Files\R\R­3.0.1 then add “;C:\Program Files\R\R­3.0.1\bin" into the path. Some users have problem with D3DCOMPILER_43.dll error. This problem can be solved by downloading the latest DirectX from microsoft. To start the program, simply double click HiC.exe The Program Files: There are hidden folders, executables and .dll files within the folder. They are crucial to the execution of the program and should not be tampered with. 1. HiC.exe: This is the main executable, double click to execute the program. 2. BACH_result: The default folder for storing results of BACH algorithm. 3. BACH_MIX_result: The default folder for storing results of BACH­MIX algorithm.
