How would a language look like that is specially designed for solving meta-programming problems in the software composition domain? We present requirements for and design of Rascal, a new language for solving meta-programming problems that fit the Extract-AnalyzeSYnthesize (EASY) paradigm.

A new approach for the identification of friction and rigid-body dynamics of complex parallel kinematical structures is presented in this paper. The approach is based on optimal excitation trajectories with the linear estimation theory as the mathematical background. The trajectories are bounded in such a way that they are easy to be fit into the small and hard constrained workspace of PKM.

For a mouthguard to function properly, it must fit well. It is possible to produce a well-fitting mouthguard using the "dry model" technique, which is relatively inexpensive and easy to learn. Custom-fitted intraoral mouthguards help prevent or reduce the severity of concussions as well as minimize oral cavity injuries.

With availability of enough visualization techniques it can be very confusing to know what and when should be appropriate technique to use in order to convey maximum possible understanding. The basic purpose of visual representation is to efficiently interpret what is insight, as easy as possible. Different available visualization techniques are use for different situation which convey differen...

EulerView is a novel resource management tool, enabling the representation of non-hierarchical categorisation structures within which to place resources. Since the initial incarnation for use in file-system management, it has been integrated with other systems, such as Flickr to produce Eulr, which assists in user manipulation of photo tags. Another system currently under development is Eulicio...

Islam is the world’s fastest growing religion and at its present rate of expansion it will soon be the predominant religion of mankind. This is not a new or unexpected statistic, however it is something that is slowly making people re-examine their understanding of a religion of which many remain ignorant. Some are taking positive step, and by educating themselves they are discovering the truth...

Educational games can greatly benefit from integrating support for learning analytics. Game authoring tools that make this integration as easy as possible are therefore an important step towards improving adoption of educational games. We describe the process of integrating full support for game learning analytics into uAdventure, a serious game authoring tool. We argue that such integrations g...

Recently, there has been an interest in creating practical anonymous electronic cash with the ability to conduct payments of exact amounts, as is typically the practice in physical payment systems. The most general solution for such payments is to allow electronic coins to be divisible (e.g., each coin can be spent incrementally but total purchases are limited to the monetary value of the coin)...
