  • Microsoft Solitaire Was Developed by an Intern (Video)
    Microsoft Solitaire Was Developed By An Intern (Video) On May 22, National Solitaire Day recognizes a card game that has been around for more than 200 years. Also known as Klondike, the classic version of the game uses a standard deck of 52 playing cards. The object of the game is to clear the board by creating a stack of cards from low to high in each suit. If the player completes each suit, the game of Solitaire is won. It wasn’t until 1990 when Microsoft included Solitaire in Windows 3.0 that the game truly went viral. Microsoft Solitaire successfully helped teach computer users how to use a mouse and, in the process, ended up becoming one of the most played video games in history. “Over the past 30 years, Microsoft Solitaire has been providing great entertainment to hundreds of millions of players in every corner of the world, and we’re happy to announce that May 22 of each calendar year will officially be designated as National Solitaire Day, recognizing the day Microsoft first included Solitaire in Windows,” says Paul Jensen, Studio Manager for Microsoft Casual Games. Another name for Solitaire is Patience. If you’re going to hit “card games” on Google, the first result would be the game “Patience.” Did you know that this was another name for Solitaire? Most Americans know the game by solitaire but over in England it is popularly known as Patience. Different countries have a different term for the game.

  • The Application of Personal Digital Assistants As Mobile Computing Device on Construction Site
    The Application of Personal Digital Assistants as Mobile Computing Device on Construction Site Kenji Kimoto, Kazuyoshi Endo, Satoru Iwashita and Mitsuhiro Fujiwara Konoike Construction Co., Ltd., Research Institute of Technology 1-20-1 Sakura, Tsukuba-Science City, IBARAKI 305-0003, Japan. {kimoto_kj, Iwashita_st, fujiwara_mh}@konoike.co.jp . Kogakuin University, Department of Architecture, 1-24-2 Nishishinjuku, Shinjyuku-ku, TOKYO 163-8677, Japan. [email protected] ABSTRACT: Construction managers need to access the real construction site to manage the construction project. They have recently handled various types of digital information such as drawings, specification, checklists and daily reports. They usually use sheets of paper and/or field notes. As a result, a gap in time and space between the outdoor construction site and the office, which leads to the low efficiency, occurs. This paper reports the application of PDA (Personal Digital Assistants) as mobile computing device for construction managers on construction sites. First, this paper describes the aim and the essential element of the mobile systems. This also shows the analysis of necessary functions as mobile computing device through the discussion with construction managers, and the concept of development of this computer-aided engineering system. Secondly, this paper describes the outline of below subsystems with PDA: Progress Monitoring System, Inspection System and Position Check System. Subsystems have two programs: the data input program in PDA and the output program in PC. Finally, this paper indicates the development of more refined process of construction management with the mobile computing device on construction site. • Progress Monitoring System has been built for construction managers to monitor the progress of works.

  • Klondike Solitaire Solvability
    Klondike Solitaire Solvability Mikko Voima BACHELOR’S THESIS April 2021 Degree Programme in Business Information Systems Option of Game Development ABSTRACT Tampereen ammattikorkeakoulu Tampere University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Business Information Systems Option of Game Development VOIMA, MIKKO: Klondike Solitaire Solvability Bachelor's thesis 32 pages, of which appendices 1 page June 2021 Klondike solitaire remains one of the most popular single-player card games, but the exact odds of winning were discovered as late as 2019. The objective of this thesis was to study Klondike solitaire solvability from the game design point of view. The purpose of this thesis was to develop a solitaire prototype and use it as a testbed to study the solvability of Klondike. The theoretical section explores the card game literature and the academic studies on the solvability of Klondike solitaire. Furthermore, Klondike solitaire rule variations and the game mechanics are analysed. In the practical section a Klondike game prototype was developed using Unity game engine. A new fast recursive method was developed which can detect 2.24% of random card configurations as unsolvable without simulating any moves. The study indicates that determining the solvability of Klondike is a computationally complex NP-complete problem. Earlier studies proved empirically that approximately 82% of the card configurations are solvable. The method developed in this thesis could detect over 12% of the unsolvable card configurations without making any moves. The method can be used to narrow the search space of brute-force searches and applied to other problems. Analytical research on Klondike solvability is called for because the optimal strategy is still not known.

  • Solitaire App Download How to Get the Classic Windows Solitaire Game on Windows 10
    solitaire app download How to get the classic Windows Solitaire game on Windows 10. Solitaire has been part of Windows for a long time, and for many years, it has even remained one of the most popular games you can play on PC. The game was originally released with Windows 3.0, and since then, it's received a number of minor updates until Windows 7. Then on Windows 8.1, Microsoft replaced the classic with a modern version, which is known as the "Microsoft Solitaire Collection," and it remains until Windows 10. Although the new version of the game is free and bundles several other classic card games, you have to pay a subscription to unlock additional features and remove the advertisements. Whether you miss the classic, or you don't like the idea of paying for a game that once was absolutely free, there's a way to bring back the good ol' Solitaire to Windows 10. In this Windows 10 guide, we'll walk you through the steps to bring back the classic Solitaire game from Windows XP to your Windows 10 device. How to bring the classic Solitaire game to Windows 10. The process to bring back Solitaire is straightforward, but there's one little obstacle: You must have access to a Windows XP installation to download the files to run the game on Windows 10. Although you may be able to download the files from various sources, it's recommended to get the files from an old computer. If you don't have a Windows XP device, then an alternative option includes creating a virtual machine to extract the files.

J. Somaiya College of Engineering, India) 2(Department of Computer Engineering, K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering, India) 3(Department of Computer Engineering, K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering, India) 4(Department of Computer Engineering, K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering, India) Abstract: Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) i.e. a handheld device interacting with human beings verbally and performing tasks that are usually performed by an assistant, has been a growing and continuously evolving technology in recent years. Technology is rapidly automating all the manual work. In such scenario, the concept of PDA where everyone can carry their very own assistant in their pockets and can use it anytime and anywhere without even having to reach their pockets (i.e. completely hands-free usage) proves out to be a great success for technological world. There is no doubt about the fact that PDAs are the future of technology as all the major tech giants like Google, Microsoft, Apple etc. are keen on building and developing their own PDA. Thus, this advancement, demands for a reliable verbal authentication measure where a user can authenticate himself just by talking to the system. Moreover, this conversation should be such that, no intruder or attacker must be allowed to bypass the system even if he listens to the conversation that took place between the user and the PDA.
