    INKSCAPE – FREE VECTOR GRAPHICS EDITOR Grabareva A. Supervisor: Voevodina M. E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Kharkiv, О.М. Beketov National University of Urban Economy in Kharkiv Inkscape is a cross-platform, powerful enough and in many ways competitive free vector graphics editor with open source code, and in which the SVG format is used as the main standard for work. It is convenient for creating both artistic and technical illustrations. Inkscape is an analogue of such graphic editors as Corel Draw, Adobe Illustrator, Xara X and Freehand. Intended use: - illustrations for office circulars, presentations, creation of logos, business cards, posters; - technical illustrations (diagrams, graphics, etc.); - vector graphics for high-quality printing (with preliminary import of SVG into Scribus); - web graphics – from banners to site layouts, icons for applications and website buttons, - graphics for games. Main characteristics of Inkscape: - the program is free and distributed under the GNU General Public License; - cross-platform; - the program supports the following document formats: import – almost all popular and frequently used formats: SVG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, EPS, PDF, PNG, ICO, and many additional ones, such as SVGZ, EMF, PostScript, AI, Dia, Sketch, TIFF, XPM, WMF, WPG, GGR, ANI, CUR, PCX, PNM, RAS, TGA, WBMP, XBM, XPM; export – the main formats are PNG and SVG and many additional EPS, PostScript, PDF, Dia, AI, Sketch, POV-Ray, LaTeX, OpenDocument Draw, GPL, EMF, POV, DXF; - there is support for layers; -

  • 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.

  • A Training Programme for Early-Stage Researchers That Focuses on Developing Personal Science Outreach Portfolios
    A training programme for early-stage researchers that focuses on developing personal science outreach portfolios Shaeema Zaman Ahmed1, Arthur Hjorth2, Janet Frances Rafner2 , Carrie Ann Weidner1, Gitte Kragh2, Jesper Hasseriis Mohr Jensen1, Julien Bobroff3, Kristian Hvidtfelt Nielsen4, Jacob Friis Sherson*1,2 1 Department of Physics and Astronomy, Aarhus University, Denmark 2 Department of Management, Aarhus University, Denmark 3 Laboratoire de Physique des Solides, Université Paris-Saclay, CNRS, France 4 Centre for Science Studies, Aarhus University, Denmark *[email protected] Abstract Development of outreach skills is critical for researchers when communicating their work to non-expert audiences. However, due to the lack of formal training, researchers are typically unaware of the benefits of outreach training and often under-prioritize outreach. We present a training programme conducted with an international network of PhD students in quantum physics, which focused on developing outreach skills and an understanding of the associated professional benefits by creating an outreach portfolio consisting of a range of implementable outreach products. We describe our approach, assess the impact, and provide guidelines for designing similar programmes across scientific disciplines in the future. Keywords: science outreach, science communication, training, professional development Introduction Recent years have seen an increased call for outreach and science communication training by research agencies such as the National Science Foundation

It can be used to plot functions and data points in both two- and three-dimensional plots in many different formats. It is designed primarily for the visual display of scientific data. gnuplot is copyrighted, but freely distributable; you don't have to pay for it. Read More Answers. Question # 2 How to run gnuplot on your computer? Answer:- Gnuplot is in widespread use on many platforms, including MS Windows, linux, unix, and OSX. The current source code retains supports for older systems as well, including VMS, Ultrix, OS/2, MS-DOS, Amiga, OS-9/68k, Atari ST, BeOS, and Macintosh. Versions since 4.0 have not been extensively tested on legacy platforms. Please notify the FAQ-maintainer of any further ports you might be aware of. You should be able to compile the gnuplot source more or less out of the box on any reasonable standard (ANSI/ISO C, POSIX) environment. Read More Answers. Question # 3 How to edit or post-process a gnuplot graph? Answer:- This depends on the terminal type you use. * X11 toolkits: You can use the terminal type fig and use the xfig drawing program to edit the plot afterwards. You can obtain the xfig program from its web site http://www.xfig.org. More information about the text-format used for fig can be found in the fig-package.
