A challenging issue in the construction and maintenance of large application systems is how to determine which components need to be rebuilt after change, when and in which order. Rebuilding is typically recompilation and linking, but may also include update of derivable components such as cross-reference databases and re-creation of library indexes. Type definitions or schema, and data values ...

Virtual visits on the Web are an important means to publicize a museum collection and attract visitors. Software applications for building virtual exhibitions, in addition to being tools to create content for virtual visits, may help the staff of a museum to conceive and mount exhibitions. This paper presents the Virtual Exhibition Builder, an interactive software tool aimed at the creation of ...

This paper discusses a set of experiences I had in developing ROCKET, an early application generator in the area of rocket flight mechanics at the Rand Corporation. It begins by describing a precursor system I worked on at General Dynamics. It also covers some experiences with the interactive Graphic ROCKET followon, and POGO, an early GUI builder. It concludes by relating these to the recent M...

The electronic Ligand Builder and Optimization Workbench (eLBOW) is a program module of the PHENIX suite of computational crystallographic software. It is designed to be a flexible procedure that uses simple and fast quantum-chemical techniques to provide chemically accurate information for novel and known ligands alike. A variety of input formats and options allow the attainment of a number of...

This paper describes a set of two applications comprising the Virtual Art Gallery tool: the Space Picker application and the Virtual Exhibition Builder application. The purpose of this tool is to allow users to interactively create a virtual exhibition of artworks in a pre-built virtual model. We use X3D for the models and Java with Xj3D for the display and handling. The works of art are handle...

This research effort aims to develop a chemical modeling software tool that integrates the functionality of chemical visualization and molecular builder into one. ZINCv, which stands for “ZINCv Is Not just a Chemical visualizer”, is developed using Visualization Toolkit and FLTK, which makes it a cross-platform tool. Using ZINCv one can build and visualize from simple molecules to complex prote...

Software dynamic translation and multiprocessing hardware are both becoming prevalent in today’s computing environment. Unfortunately, many of the programs being run under software dynamic translation are single threaded, and are unable to take advantage of thread level parallelism. This work presents the groundwork for enabling the Strata software dynamic translation framework to run in multip...

Teachers need high levels of creativity and innovation to deliver subject matter during this period digital learning. Literacy numeracy skills are top priorities in schools, mathematics is very relevant for the acceleration literacy development. The goal study was develop a virtual math lab based on cognitive load theory improve skills. ADDIE development model used, consisting stages analysis, ...
