  • THE FUTURE of SCREENS from James Stanton a Little Bit About Me
    THE FUTURE OF SCREENS From james stanton A little bit about me. Hi I am James (Mckenzie) Stanton Thinker / Designer / Engineer / Director / Executive / Artist / Human / Practitioner / Gardner / Builder / and much more... Born in Essex, United Kingdom and survived a few hair raising moments and learnt digital from the ground up. Ok enough of the pleasantries I have been working in the design field since 1999 from the Falmouth School of Art and onwards to the RCA, and many companies. Ok. less about me and more about what I have seen… Today we are going to cover - SCREENS CONCEPTS - DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION - WHY ASSETS LIBRARIES - CODE LIBRARIES - COST EFFECTIVE SOLUTION FOR IMPLEMENTATION I know, I know, I know. That's all good and well, but what does this all mean to a company like mine? We are about to see a massive change in consumer behavior so let's get ready. DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION AS A USP Getting this correct will change your company forever. DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION USP-01 Digital transformation (DT) – the use of technology to radically improve performance or reach of enterprises – is becoming a hot topic for companies across the globe. VERY DIGITAL CHANGING NOT VERY DIGITAL DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION USP-02 Companies face common pressures from customers, employees and competitors to begin or speed up their digital transformation. However they are transforming at different paces with different results. VERY DIGITAL CHANGING NOT VERY DIGITAL DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION USP-03 Successful digital transformation comes not from implementing new technologies but from transforming your organisation to take advantage of the possibilities that new technologies provide.

  • Expanding the Power of Csound with Integrated Html and Javascript
    Michael Gogins. Expanding the Power of Csound with Intergrated HTML and JavaScript EXPANDING THE POWER OF CSOUND WITH INTEGRATED HTML AND JAVA SCRIPT Michael Gogins [email protected] https://michaelgogins.tumblr.com http://michaelgogins.tumblr.com/ This paper presents recent developments integrating Csound [1] with HTML [2] and JavaScript [3, 4]. For those new to Csound, it is a “MUSIC N” style, user- programmable software sound synthesizer, one of the first yet still being extended, written mostly in the C language. No synthesizer is more powerful. Csound can now run in an interactive Web page, using all the capabilities of current Web browsers: custom widgets, 2- and 3-dimensional animated and interactive graphics canvases, video, data storage, WebSockets, Web Audio, mathematics typesetting, etc. See the whole list at HTML5 TEST [5]. Above all, the JavaScript programming language can be used to control Csound, extend its capabilities, generate scores, and more. JavaScript is the “glue” that binds together the components and capabilities of HTML5. JavaScript is a full-featured, dynamically typed language that supports functional programming and prototype-based object- oriented programming. In most browsers, the JavaScript virtual machine includes a just- in-time compiler that runs about 4 times slower than compiled C, very fast for a dynamic language. JavaScript has limitations. It is single-threaded, and in standard browsers, is not permitted to access the local file system outside the browser's sandbox. But most musical applications can use an embedded browser, which bypasses the sandbox and accesses the local file system. HTML Environments for Csound There are two approaches to integrating Csound with HTML and JavaScript.

In addition to the normal challenge of writing clean code you have the added complexity of dealing with obtuse browser complexities. To counter-act this JavaScript developers frequently construct some set of common, reusable, functionality in the form of JavaScript library. These libraries frequently vary in content and complexity but one constant remains: They need to be easy to use, be constructed with the least amount of overhead, and be able to work in all browsers that you target. It stands to reason, then, that understanding how the very best JavaScript libraries are constructed and maintained can provide great insight into how your own code can be constructed.

MECHANIZING WEBASSEMBLY PROPOSALS by Jacob Mischka A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Science at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee August 2020 ABSTRACT MECHANIZING WEBASSEMBLY PROPOSALS by Jacob Mischka The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2020 Under the Supervision of Professor John Boyland WebAssembly is a modern low-level programming language designed to provide high performance and security. To enable these goals, the language specifies a relatively small number of low-level types, instructions, and lan- guage constructs. The language is proven to be sound with respect to its types and execution, and a separate mechanized formalization of the specifi- cation and type soundness proofs confirms this. As an emerging technology, the language is continuously being developed, with modifications being pro- posed and discussed in the open and on a frequent basis. ii In order to ensure the soundness properties exhibited by the original core language are maintained as WebAssembly evolves, these proposals should too be mechanized and verified to be sound.
