In particular, they serve as a stable base for compiling other components of the Heirloom Project.
Car PC Development Kit 0.2.1
Car PC Development Kit is a kit for making a Linux distribution for a car PC. more>>
Unlike most distributions which come prepackaged and ready to load, this distribution requires downloading, compiling, and post-setup before you can load it into a system.
The end result will be a modular platform for quickly putting together a small Linux system to copy onto boot media and start using.
The target platform is a mini-computer to be installed in an automobile and used either headless or with a monitor and some input device like a keyboard or remote control.
Enhancements:
- Fixes LIRC support for both CAUI and MPlayer.
- Updates the CAUI version, and updates the LIRC package to configure more buttons by default.

- collect execution timing statistics,
- trace executed instructions,
- inspect and modify the MIX registers, flags and memory contents at any step,
- simulate MIX input-output devices using the standard output and your file system.
In addition, the MIX virtual machine simulators include an embedded Guile interpreter and, therefore, their functionality can be extended using Scheme.
Enhancements:
- The Gmixvm interface has been improved with respect to the external programs dialog and about box.
- Compilation warnings in PPC and 64-bit platforms were fixed.
- Minor bugs were fixed.
Chemistry Development Kit 1.0.1
Chemistry Development Kit is a Java classes for chemo- and bioinformatics. more>>
They are a complete re-write of the CompChem classes that were the basis of JChemPaint, a Java Editor for 2D chemical structures, and of JMDraw, a Java package for the graphical layout of 2D chemical structures.
The CDK project was started in September 2000 to replace the CompChem libraries used by JChemPaint, Jmol and SENECA. It no longer is in its initial stage, but is slowly getting a solid state.
The people involved in setting up the project are Christoph Steinbeck then at the Chemoinformatics Group at the Max Planck Institute of Chemical Ecology in Jena, as well as Egon Willighagen from the University of Nijmegen, The Netherlands, who is also involved with JChemPaint and many other Java Chemoinformatics programs, and Dan Gezelter from Notre Dame University, South Bend, USA, the initiator of Jmol, a 3D viewer and analyzer for molecules .
Now, the rewrite of these CompChem/CDK library classes do somehow effect all of our projects. All of our code relies to some extend on the so-called CompChem classes for computational chemistry.
Christoph Steinbeck started this chemistry library when he started programming SENECA, a system for Computer Assisted Structure Elucidation. It turned out that some of the code had design flaws that prevented others, like the authors of (Jmol) to use it.
Enhancements:
- This release consists of mostly some bugfixes, but also solves a few Java 1.4.2 compile problems and adds more functionality to the SMARTS parser.
AVR Cross Development Kit 20060719
AVR Cross Development Kit is a cross development kit for the AVR RISC processor. more>>
CDK4AVR collects all programms and development tools in one directory (/opt/cdk4avr) and will try to present an easy to admin installation.
My intention for CDK4AVR is / was to provide a full featurd tool chain distribution of all the free accessible resources, because the most stuff is scattered to the wide of the whole Internet and only compileable by wizards or professions.
Installation:
Each package will be provided as RPM only. It is not necessary to install all packages,but you have to install the base package cdk-avr-base every time you want to use another package. Here is an example for a typical GNU development environment:
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-base-0.3-20031111.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-binutils-2.14-20030906.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-gcc-3.3.2-20031021.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-gcc-c++-3.3.2-20031021.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-gcc-colorgcc-3.3.2-20031021.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-libc-1.0.2-20040229.noarch.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-gdb-6.0-20031019.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-simulavr-0.1.2.20040304cvs-20040304.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-avarice-2.2-20040229.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-uisp-20040207cvs-20040304.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hiv cdk-avr-avrdude-4.3.0-20040229.i386.rpm
Base package -- is needed every time you will use any CDK4AVR package.
NOTE: Users of base packages with version 0.2 and prior have to update to latest version. There was a damaged (t)csh startup script. As a result of an buggy %preun script in previous packages you have to update in two cycles:
[user@host]$ rpm -hUv cdk-nios-base-0.3-20031111.i386.rpm
[user@host]$ rpm -hUv --force cdk-nios-base-0.3-20031111.i386.rpm
Enhancements:
- There are minor feature enhancements in AVR-Ada 0.4.1.
- As a result, the packeges for binutils and gcc/gnat were rebuilt.
- There are new packages for the AVR-Ada run time system and related examples.
Curses Development Kit 5.0-20060507
Curses Development Kit is a library of widgets for curses development. more>>
Installation:
To build the library cd into the Cdk distribution directory and follow the following steps:
1) Run configure. This will create a Makefile with a default install directory root of /usr/local. If you want to change the default install directory use the --prefix command line argument on configure. For example, if you want to install under /export/local instead, run the command: ./configure --prefix="/export/local"
2) Type make. This will make the library, the example binaries and the demonstration binaries.
3) Type make install. This will install the CDK distribution. Look at step 1 if you want to install other than /usr/local.
Enhancements:
- Adds functions to simplify changes of the list for alphalist and fselect widgets.
- Modifies handling of the delete key to make it delete the current character (unlike backspace).
- Several other minor fixes and improvements.
Trepidation 10-29 Development Build
Trepidation is a first-person person shooter based on the IOQ3 engine. more>>
Trepidation is a first person shooter set in the future based on the GPL IOQ3 Quake Engine. Trepidation features all new weapons, maps and vehicles.. Currently planned game types are Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture The Flag, Last Man Standing, Arsenal, Instagib and a few others to be announced.
Trepidation intends to be a 100% free GPL multiplayer first person shooter based on the IOQ3 Quake 3 Engine. The game media will also be GPL/Open Source so that others can improve and expand upon. Trepidation will include many standard gametypes such as DM, TDM, and CTF with instagib options, as well as the introduction 2-4 new gametypes. Each game mode will have additional attributes that can be activated via the configuration such as wall jumping, double/multijumping, instagib,multiflag and return the flag (for flag based games).
Trepidation will introduce new aspects to the physics of the Q3 engine, The new physics are geared towards trick jumping with weapons and high speed jumping. Trepidation also introduces air and land vehicles, something that hasnt been seen in similar projects. Trepidation will also include an improved unlagged network code based on unlagged 2.0 but more finely tuned to the new physics present.
The project will utilize a modified version of the GPL dpmaster for the master server code base.
The game will have ports for *nix, *BSD, Win32 and possibly an OSX port. OpenAL will be used for sound. Surround sound supported. AVI video capture of demos, Ogg Vorbis & MP3 support. Much improved QVM tools and a well documented SDK for mod authors. MinGW compilation support on Windows and cross-compilation on Linux, which is already included in the IOQ3 Project.

Trac/Subversion Development JumpBox 1.0
Trac/Subversion Development JumpBox bundles Trac 0.10.4 and Subversion 1.3.1. more>>
WHY USE A JUMPBOX
Its Simple
Open Source applications are great. The applications are powerful, inexpensive and get the job done. But installing and configuring those applications can be a pain. A JumpBox delivers Open Source applications in a way that makes them simple to try, run and operate.
Its Quick
Actually downloading a JumpBox will take the most time. Once thats done, youre just a few minutes from having a working application that can serve multiple users.
Its Portable
A JumpBox collects the application, application dependancies and all application data into a single bundle that can easily be moved from one computer to another. This allows you to start running the application on your desktop and then as usage grows move it to a server without needing to reinstall or reconfigure. Plus with support for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux you can even move the application between platforms with little effort.
Its Safe
Manually installing Open Source applications not only takes a lot of time and effort, but when youre done its still left to you to figure out how to protect the data the application manages. With a JumpBox its easy to add automatic backups of the entire state of the application.
Its Virtual
A JumpBox application is a virtual appliance that bundles the open source application and all its runtime dependancies into a single package that runs on top of virtualization software from VMWare, Parallels or Xen. This means all JumpBox applications automatically gain the benefits of traditional server virtualization and can be dropped into existing virtualization infrastructure when available.
Its Comfortable
JumpBox provides a consistent runtime environment for all applications that we bundle. The applications may differ considerably, but their installation and operation will be familiar no matter which JumpBox you choose.

- Updated regular expressions used by the JDEEs interface to jdb to accommodate non-English punctuation styles for numeric expressions in debugger messages, e.g.,
- 1.200 for a line number where the English would write 1,200.
- Thanks to Morten B. Isaksen.
- In previous releases, building javadoc caused all future uses of compilation mode to try to
- display the javadoc. This release fixes the problem.
- Thanks to David Evers.
- Updated the submit-problem-report command to include an XEmacs users init.el file.
DREAM Tool 0.7 Beta
DREAM Tool is a generic framework that aims at providing a common semantic domain. more>>
The semantic domain has an executable C++ model which has been semantically anchored to the hybrid automata formalism. Although the model of computation corresponds to hybrid automata, so far we have been successful in analyzing the models by conservative approximation using timed automata on moderate size systems.
To deal with large-scale examples the user has the ability to use the simulation/testing interface on the executable C++ model before implementing the system. We plan to extend the genetic algorithms to solve a large number of problems.
DREAM is a simulation and verification framework which provides a formal model and analysis of your system in less than a day. Systems in DREAM are specified using XML in a straightforward way. I hope you find it useful.
Real-time middleware provides dependable and efficient platforms supporting key functional and quality of service (QoS) needs of distributed real-time embedded (DRE) systems.
Key challenges in DRE system developments include safe composition of system components and mapping the functional specifications onto the target platform. Model-based technologies help address these issues by enabling design-time analysis and providing the means for the rapid evaluation of design alternatives with respect to end-to-end QoS properties, predictability and performance measures before committing to a specific platform.
The Distributed Real-time Embedded Analysis Method DREAM is an open-source tool and method for optimizing multiple quality of service (QoS) properties of distributed real-time embedded (DRE) systems. The project focuses on the practical application of formal analysis methods to real-time middleware to automate the verification, development, configuration, and integration of middleware-based DRE systems.
Enhancements:
- This version implemented several optimizations for improved model checking performance, resulting in impressive performance gains of at least 2-3 times.
- There are no known memory leaks present in the current release.
- Balanced AVL trees are now used, resulting in exponential speedups in several steps of the model checking method.
- XML Schema validation was implemented.
- Verification time reporting was upgraded to include data on the simulation speeds.
- Random simulation-based testing now provides an execution trace when a deadline is missed.

uploads site pages from your development machine to the production server. Only the newer documents are uploaded. It also shows you the files on your target server that are missing in your development environment. This facilitates you the task of tracking moved / deleted files
Rapid Application Development Library 2.8.3
Rapid Application Development Library 2.8.3 is yet another excellent utility you should not miss. It is actually a C language library developed to abstract details of interprocess communications and more>>
Rapid Application Development Library 2.8.3 is yet another excellent utility you should not miss. It is actually a C language library developed to abstract details of interprocess communications and common linux/unix system facilities so that application developers can concentrate on application solutions. It encourages developers (whether expert or novice) to use a proven paradigm of event-driven, asynchronous design. By abstracting interprocess messaging, events, timers, and any I/O device that can be represented as a file descriptor, radlib simplifies the implementation of multi-purpose processes, as well as multi-process applications.
Radlib greatly improves typical process performance through the use of shared memory buffers to avoid costly "malloc" and "free" library calls. These buffers are used for interprocess messages. radlib utilizes shared memory constructs to provide global message queue management and global "Queue Groups" for increased interprocess communications flexibility. All shared resources are semaphore protected to avoid issues with concurrent access.
In short, radlib is a sincere attempt to provide real-time OS capability on a non-real-time OS. It has been successfully deployed on linux, MacOSX and FreeBSD but there is no reason it would not build and run on any flavor of unix supporting System V IPC.
Specifically, radlib provides fast system buffers, a simple config file utility, events, doubly-linked lists, process logging through syslog, message queues, semaphores, shared memory utilities, timers, stacks, state machine utilities, a process framework, a process management utility to start/stop groups of processes, optional MySQL or PostgreSQL database API, a straightforward TCP/streams socket API, a UDP/datagram unicast/multicast/broadcast API, CRC and SHA utility APIs, and other assorted system utilities.
An example application template is provided in the distribution (see the "Example Application Template" link in the left column of this page). The template example serves two purposes: it demonstrates, through source code inspection, how a well constructed radlib process is implemented and it provides an example build environment with the capability for someone new to radlib to build and execute an example application "right out of the box".
Proprietary forms of radlib have been used in several mission-critical commercial applications with excellent results. It is light yet very powerful and efficient in real time. radlib is BSD-licensed (free to use in binary or source forms) and distributed as source to be built on the target platform. Build instructions are included in the distribution. See the file "COPYING" in the distribution for details concerning open source software and the BSD license.
Major Features:
- Includes SQLite3 support.
- Can be used on both 32 and 64 bit platforms with no special configuration required.
- Supports native development on the LinkSys NSLU2 as well as binary package support for radlib applications. See the README file for details.
- Includes a new message router daemon and API. This new paradigm simplifies interprocess communications substantially. See radmsgRouter.h for details.
- Includes a new example template which demonstrates multiprocess applications and the new message router API. See template/README in the distro for details.
- Built with libtool which generates shared libraries as well as static if supported on the build platform. Header files are now C++ friendly and radlib can be linked with C++ applications. LIST and LIST_ID were changed to RADLIST and RADLIST_ID to avoid problems with newer versions of MySQL.
- Includes SHA-1, SHA-256 and CRC16/32 utilities. See the header files "radsha.h" and "radcrc.h" for details.
