By providing both an integrated development environment and build automation capabilities that can be integrated in a DevOps pipeline, IBM Z Open Development offers a path to move from traditional mainframe Source Code Management Systems to modern Source Code Management Systems such as Git and Rational Team Concert. • Modern editors – The COBOL, JCL, and PL/I editors provide the familiarity and features of other Eclipse-based editors. They also provide language-specific features such as syntax highlighting and source actions. • Program understanding – Program control flow provides a graphical view of the logical flow within a COBOL or PL/I program. You can use this to understand the logic of the program you are editing and get the overall flow. You can also use this feature to identify potential logic problems or locate code that is not being used. – Program data flow provides a graphical and hierarchical view of the data flow within a COBOL program. You can use this feature to examine how a data element is populated, modified, or written elsewhere. IBM Europe Software Announcement ZP18-0537 IBM is a registered trademark of International Business Machines Corporation 1 – Data Elements view displays information about the data elements in a COBOL or PL/I program, the included copybooks, and the included files. IBM z/OS debugger: • A powerful, modern, eclipse based GUI source level debugger for 24-bit and 31- bit z/OS applications written in COBOL, PL/I and C/C++. Enables the user to step through the program being debugged, monitor and modify variables, set breakpoints during or prior to a debug session, and inspect program memory. • Includes Visual Debug which provides a graphical view of COBOL and PL/I program execution flow including the current execution path. • Also includes support for showing a stack frame in the debug view that includes: – Paragraphs – Setting paragraph breakpoints from the source or from the breakpoint view – Stack breakpoints from the visual debug view Intelligent build capabilities • The Dependency Based Build toolkit provides a set of Java APIs that can be used to define an intelligent build script. To simplify the process of creating intelligent build scripts by using Dependency Based Build APIs, the toolkit contains an Apache Groovy installation that has been modified to run on UNIX(R) System Services. While the APIs can be used with any language, the samples that are provided use Groovy. The APIs include: – Run MVSTM commands – Run TSO/ISPF commands – Submit JCL jobs – Store and retrieve dependency information – Utility capabilities such as copying a z/FS UNIX file to and from a data set or member – zImport capability for migration to Git – Capability to create and store a build report • The Dependency Based Build web application is used to store and retrieve the dependency information and store build reports. The web application provides REST APIs that can be used to create intelligent build scripts. • The Dependency Based Build samples provide a set of Groovy scripts with example programs to demonstrate how intelligent build scripts can be created. The prebuilt samples can be used as a starting point for a build process. The samples are maintained in GitHub. Integrations • Dependency Based Build integration with the editor function enables users to compile their program by employing the same build scripts that are defined for the pipeline build. This includes copying the files and any dependencies to the specified host, running the build process, and returning any errors and the result. • IBM Z Open Development integrates with Rational Team Concert to provide z/OS developers an integrated collaborative application development environment.

  • Let's Get Functional
    5 LET’S GET FUNCTIONAL I’ve mentioned several times that F# is a functional language, but as you’ve learned from previous chapters you can build rich applications in F# without using any functional techniques. Does that mean that F# isn’t really a functional language? No. F# is a general-purpose, multi paradigm language that allows you to program in the style most suited to your task. It is considered a functional-first lan- guage, meaning that its constructs encourage a functional style. In other words, when developing in F# you should favor functional approaches whenever possible and switch to other styles as appropriate. In this chapter, we’ll see what functional programming really is and how functions in F# differ from those in other languages. Once we’ve estab- lished that foundation, we’ll explore several data types commonly used with functional programming and take a brief side trip into lazy evaluation. The Book of F# © 2014 by Dave Fancher What Is Functional Programming? Functional programming takes a fundamentally different approach toward developing software than object-oriented programming. While object-oriented programming is primarily concerned with managing an ever-changing system state, functional programming emphasizes immutability and the application of deterministic functions. This difference drastically changes the way you build software, because in object-oriented programming you’re mostly concerned with defining classes (or structs), whereas in functional programming your focus is on defining functions with particular emphasis on their input and output. F# is an impure functional language where data is immutable by default, though you can still define mutable data or cause other side effects in your functions.

    Send Orders for Reprints to [email protected] The Open Automation and Control Systems Journal, 2015, 7, 863-872 863 Open Access Elastic Pipeline Design of High Performance Micro-Controller YL8MCU for Signal Processing of Digital Home Appliances Fulong Chen1,*, Yunxiang Sun2, Chuanxin Zhao2, Jie Yang2, Heping Ye2, Junru Zhu2, and Qimei Tang2 1Department of Computer Science & Technology, Anhui Normal University, Wuhu, Anhui 241002, China 2Network and Information Security Engineering Research Center, Anhui Normal University, Wuhu, Anhui 241002, China Abstract-With the growing complexity of the structure and function of the digital home appliance controllers, the higher requirements on the design of integrated circuits are expected. In view of the lower efficiency of the traditional large scale integrated circuit design, such as long design cycle, high investment and bad flexibility, therefore, the traditional design method is unable to meet the rapid product development. A design and its implementation scheme based on System-on- Programmable-Chip (SoPC) technologies with the Intellectual Property (IP) core parametric technology and elastic design method are proposed for the Micro-controller Unit (MCU) YL8MCU applied in digital home appliances. It makes used of Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) framework and 5-stage pipeline technology for designing the instruction sys- tem and hardware structure so as to improve the speed of processing data and instructions. Finally the correctness and fea- sibility of its function is verified with the integrated verification, the IP function module verification based on coverage and the simulation test of the controlling flow for the washer. The results show that YL8MCU meets the requirements of digital home appliances and supports system integration on chip.

  • Interleaving Data and Effects"
    Archived version from NCDOCKS Institutional Repository http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/asu/ Interleaving data and effects By: Robert Atkey and Patricia Johann Abstract: The study of programming with and reasoning about inductive datatypes such as lists and trees has benefited from the simple categorical principle of initial algebras. In initial algebra semantics, each inductive datatype is represented by an initial f-algebra for an appropriate functor f. The initial algebra principle then supports the straightforward derivation of definitional principles and proof principles for these datatypes. This technique has been expanded to a whole methodology of structured functional programming, often called origami programming.In this article we show how to extend initial algebra semantics from pure inductive datatypes to inductive datatypes interleaved with computational effects. Inductive datatypes interleaved with effects arise naturally in many computational settings. For example, incrementally reading characters from a file generates a list of characters interleaved with input/output actions, and lazily constructed infinite values can be represented by pure data interleaved with the possibility of non-terminating computation. Straightforward application of initial algebra techniques to effectful datatypes leads either to unsound conclusions if we ignore the possibility of effects, or to unnecessarily complicated reasoning because the pure and effectful concerns must be considered simultaneously. We show how pure and effectful concerns can be separated using the abstraction of initial f-and-m-algebras, where the functor f describes the pure part of a datatype and the monad m describes the interleaved effects. Because initial f-and-m-algebras are the analogue for the effectful setting of initial f- algebras, they support the extension of the standard definitional and proof principles to the effectful setting.
