    TEXmacs interfaces to Maxima, MuPAD and REDUCE A. G. Grozin Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, Novosibirsk 630090, Russia [email protected] Abstract GNU TEXmacs is a free wysiwyg word processor providing an excellent typesetting quality of texts and formulae. It can also be used as an interface to Computer Algebra Systems (CASs). In the present work, interfaces to three general-purpose CASs have been implemented. 1 TEXmacs GNU TEXmacs [1] is a free (GPL) word processor which typesets texts and mathematical formulae with very high quality (like LAT X), • E emphasizes the logical structure of a document rather than its appearance (like • LATEX), is easy to use and intuitive (like typical wysiwyg word processors), • arXiv:cs/0107036v2 [cs.SC] 31 Jul 2001 can be extended by a powerful programming language (like Emacs), • can include PostScript figures (as well as other figures which can be converted • to PostScript), can export LAT X, and import LAT X and html, • E E supports a number of languages based on Latin and Cyrillic alphabets. • It uses TEX fonts both on screen and when printing documents. Therefore, it is truly wysiwyg, with equally good quality of on-screen and printed documents (in contrast to LyX which uses X fonts on screen and calls LATEX for printing). There is a similar commercial program called Scientific Workplace (for Windows). TEXmacs can also be used as an interface to any CAS which can generate LATEX output. It renders LATEX formulae on the fly, producing CAS output with highest 1 typesetting quality (better than, e.g., Mathematica, which uses fixed-width fonts for formula output).

    THINC: A Virtual and Remote Display Architecture for Desktop Computing and Mobile Devices Ricardo A.

ABSTRACT THINC: A Virtual and Remote Display Architecture for Desktop Computing and Mobile Devices Ricardo A. Baratto THINC is a new virtual and remote display architecture for desktop computing. It has been designed to address the limitations and performance shortcomings of existing remote display technology, and to provide a building block around which novel desktop architectures can be built. THINC is architected around the notion of a virtual display device driver, a software-only component that behaves like a traditional device driver, but instead of managing specific hardware, enables desktop input and output to be intercepted, manipulated, and redirected at will. On top of this architecture, THINC introduces a simple, low-level, device-independent representation of display changes, and a number of novel optimizations and techniques to perform efficient interception and redirection of display output. This dissertation presents the design and implementation of THINC. It also intro- duces a number of novel systems which build upon THINC's architecture to provide new and improved desktop computing services. The contributions of this dissertation are as follows: • A high performance remote display system for LAN and WAN environments.

  • Mobile Phones and Cloud Computing
    Mobile phones and cloud computing A quantitative research paper on mobile phone application offloading by cloud computing utilization Oskar Hamrén Department of informatics Human Computer Interaction Master’s programme Master thesis 2-year level, 30 credits SPM 2012.07 Abstract The development of the mobile phone has been rapid. From being a device mainly used for phone calls and writing text messages the mobile phone of today, or commonly referred to as the smartphone, has become a multi-purpose device. Because of its size and thermal constraints there are certain limitations in areas of battery life and computational capabilities. Some say that cloud computing is just another buzzword, a way to sell already existing technology. Others claim that it has the potential to transform the whole IT-industry. This thesis is covering the intersection of these two fields by investigating if it is possible to increase the speed of mobile phones by offloading computational heavy mobile phone application functions by using cloud computing. A mobile phone application was developed that conducts three computational heavy tests. The tests were run twice, by not using cloud computing offloading and by using it. The time taken to carry out the tests were saved and later compared to see if it is faster to use cloud computing in comparison to not use it. The results showed that it is not beneficial to use cloud computing to carry out these types of tasks; it is faster to use the mobile phone. 1 Table of Contents Abstract ..................................................................................................................................... 1 Table of Contents ..................................................................................................................... 2 1.

  • Accessing Windows Applications from Unix and Vice Versa

This implies that even if eventually migrating to another environment, one still has to deal with coexistence among environments in the interim. In many com- panies it would make good business sense not to migrate legacy systems at all. Instead, it may be better to develop new systems in the desired en- vironment and phase out the legacy applications. The data created by the legacy applications is important and one must ensure that data can be ac- cessed from a new environment. Coexistence considerations are very im- portant in this case.

  • The GNOME Desktop Environment
    The GNOME desktop environment Miguel de Icaza ([email protected]) Instituto de Ciencias Nucleares, UNAM Elliot Lee ([email protected]) Federico Mena ([email protected]) Instituto de Ciencias Nucleares, UNAM Tom Tromey ([email protected]) April 27, 1998 Abstract We present an overview of the free GNU Network Object Model Environment (GNOME). GNOME is a suite of X11 GUI applications that provides joy to users and hackers alike. It has been designed for extensibility and automation by using CORBA and scripting languages throughout the code. GNOME is licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL and the GNU LGPL and has been developed on the Internet by a loosely-coupled team of programmers. 1 Motivation Free operating systems1 are excellent at providing server-class services, and so are often the ideal choice for a server machine. However, the lack of a consistent user interface and of consumer-targeted applications has prevented free operating systems from reaching the vast majority of users — the desktop users. As such, the benefits of free software have only been enjoyed by the technically savvy computer user community. Most users are still locked into proprietary solutions for their desktop environments. By using GNOME, free operating systems will have a complete, user-friendly desktop which will provide users with powerful and easy-to-use graphical applications. Many people have suggested that the cause for the lack of free user-oriented appli- cations is that these do not provide enough excitement to hackers, as opposed to system- level programming. Since most of the GNOME code had to be written by hackers, we kept them happy: the magic recipe here is to design GNOME around an adrenaline response by trying to use exciting models and ideas in the applications.
