Free re engineering software for linux

Software Engineering Environment (SEE) is frame for manufacturing information. It is implemented in sevlet and xml, and is used by the web-browser.
Software Engineering Environment (SEE) attempts to provide the information manufacturing platform for software development.
SEE is a free project, that is the author will provide all of its source code at the same time.
It runs in any servlet environment (The author merely verified in the Win and Linux environment), not using any special technique and needs no auxiliary program.
All of its data are saved in XML files, and need not database. (The future release will support the option of saving data, so that the user can select some free database, such as mysql, or commercial database to improve SEE speed.)
This means that the user can run SEE without any money. (Tomcat is a free servlet environment.)
User uses all SEE functions with the web-browser. So information sharing is very convenient.
SEE supports Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and English now.( It will support any language if someone will translate.) User can switch to interfaces in different language at any time when SEE is running. And user can add language translations which will work at once.
The main body of SEE is a frame for information manufacturing. All information included in it can be costumed dynamically and all changes will get into effect immediately. This means that the user can modify or add her/his own information structure as will at any time.
SEE provides various predefined selections for information attributes, which correspond various predefined information manufacturing patterns. The user can focus on the information description when costuming information definition, and the system will implement the functions automatically. This is the core of SEE. Most functions of SEE are in this model.
The default information definition of SEE is the result that the author understands what is the Software Engineering.
Although the target of SEE is helping for software development, actually, user can use it to design any type information, such as book registering, personnel lists, and financial reports etc.
The speed of SEE is not bad. Reading and writing 20000 records needs no more than 1 second. At present, the sorting speed is 9 seconds for 5000 records. (The testing platform is 1.8G CPU and 256M memory)
Enhancements:
- The data interface to prepare supporting databases.
- The databases are not supported in this release.
- A new interface style "Beautiful Flowers".
- These flowers are photoed in parks in this year by the author.
- The author likes the honeybee who holds a flower in its mouth very much. It is the first cartoon figure by the author. It will appear when you save wrong data. :)
- The function of "Personal Message".
- User can only query the messages sent by and sent to herself/himself. And user can only remove the messages sent to herself/himself.
- After a user read a message sent to her/him, SEE will mark it as "have_read" automatically.
- The number of new arrived messages will be shown in the interface.
- The data privileges management
- When user "Remove All" or "Modify All", the "base conditions" will be checked at first. That is user can only do what she/he can do.
- The Password fields values can not be visited, except when the user, who owns the "Import" privilege to current data, exports the data.
- All the data structures of ACL tables are changed! Their keywords become the "Title". This will permit user define better ACL.
- And the "condition" in the ACL tables are implemented completely. Now any "SEE conditions" is valid.
- Snapshot for image file
- When list the data, a snapshot will be shown for the image files type, which may end with jpg/jpeg/gif/png.
- Data sorting concerned with langauges.
- Thus when sorting data in Chinese, the result is Chinese result.
- General users can not visit the "User" table! Then they can not fill in many data!
- This is a fatal bug! This means all former releases can not be used actually!
- Now all ACL tables are redesigned.
- When a new user is added without password, SEE will add some password itself! Then this new user can never login!
- This is another fatal bug!
- In the last English release, which is 0.06, the ACL data are in Chinese!
- So the English users can not use SEE at all~~
- This is still a fatal bug!
- The "Risk Items" in the table "Deviation Handling" is wrong defined.
- This will cause an error information when user clicks the "Select" button.
- The values of Password fields can be visited when query or export.
- Although the values are meaningless encoded codes, they are still security thread.
- When some quota marks in the key values, pages will report errors and the function buttons, such as Modify and Remove, can not act!
- This is because quota is also an element of web page.
- When the interface language changes, the language in audit records changes too!
- This is not permitted. Language of all data is determined when SEE is installed and can not change with interface!

Open Metaheuristic (oMetah) is a library aimed at the conception of metaheuristics (i.e. genetic/evolutionnary algorithms, tabu search, simulated annealing, ant colony algorithms, etc.). Open Metaheuristic library follows the "adaptive learning search" approach in the design of metaheuristics (an approach inspired from the "adaptive memory programming").
The oMetah core code design is separated in three components : algorithms, problem and communication. You can easily add your own metaheuristic and test it on the implemented problems, or add your own problem, and use the implemented metaheuristics to solve it.
You also have the choice of the way the algorithm and the problem are linked (static link, network, webservice, etc.).
It is mainly designed to handle continuous or mixed-integer problems, often met in engineering applications.
oMetah is written in C++, using the Standard Template Library.
Enhancements:
- The Python and network communication protocols between metaheuristics and problems are now usable.

Fedora Linux brings you a powerful Linux operating system which is built from open source software. The Fedora Project is an openly-developed project designed by Red Hat, open for general participation, led by a meritocracy, following a set of project objectives.

The goal of The Fedora Project is to work with the Linux community to build a complete, general purpose operating system exclusively from open source software. Development will be done in a public forum. The project will produce time-based releases of Fedora Core about 2-3 times a year, with a public release schedule.

The Red Hat engineering team will continue to participate in building Fedora Core and will invite and encourage more outside participation than in past releases. By using this more open process, we hope to provide an operating system more in line with the ideals of free software and more appealing to the open source community.

PyReverse is a set of tools for reverse engineering Python code. So far, it features dependency analysis tools, documentation generation, and XMI generation for importation in a UML modeling tool. A special module can be used to generate files readable by Argo UML.
currently PyReverse build a representation of the source tree with:
- docstring for modules, classes, functions
- exceptions raised in functions
- modules attributes, functions, classes
- classs attributes defined in the class scope, inheritance links
- class instances attributes defined in the __init__ method. If possible, get the default value
- functions parameters name and optional default value
- detection of interface/abstract classes and visibility using regular expressions
- detection of links between classes using attributes default value
PyReverse provides modules which use this representation for:
- producing a XMI 1.0 UML 1.3 DOM representation
- creating PGML diagrams definitions according to the project representation, the XMI definition and a XML file which describes briefly the content of the diagrams (see ???). Those diagrams can be readen/edited with Argo UML
- generating UML diagrams readable by VCG (see ???).
- analyzing dependencies (see ???).
- generate skeleton for unit tests, using the unit testing framework for the standard library.
