Free science engineering fair of houston 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!

American Political Science: Campaign Simulator project is a statistically based political campaign simulation game.
The Campaign Simulator is an attempt to statistically model and predict the outcome of an American presidential election.
Several users assume the roles of competitive candidates and inflict the repercussions of certain decisions on a GSS-based dataset.
The application is written in Java and supports all operating systems with a Java 1.5 VM.
Main features:
- Time is not the only limiting variable. In fact, time may not be the proper limit as most operations may be performed in tandem; an economic system that allows fund raising elements should be implemented.
- The current choices all utilize the same dataset algorithm to effect the populace in similar ways- this set of scripts should be broadened and deepened as they are too high level.
- The Python Architecture needs polishing- the internal IDE is not complete, and the ability to assign scripts to run at differing points in the lifetime of the application has yet to be created.
- The installer should place links on the desktops of Mac and Unix/Linux Systems.
- Some of the small features planned, such as a GUI for dialog creation, have been cut for the deadline and should be added.

Fair DJ is an Mserv-compatible music server designed to play music in a room with several users sharing a set of speakers.

The users can rate songs, and Fair DJ selects songs using these ratings and a fairness algorithm to ensure that everybody is happy.

FairDJ is an extended version of Mserv, written in the Java programming language.

Installation:

Starting fairdj for the first time will create a settings file in your users home directory. FairDJ will print out a helpful location message specifying the path to this file. Since you most likely want to edit this file before starting Fair DJ for real, weve included a helpful install option which simply exits after creating the settings file.

Start FairDJ with the following command line:

java -jar fairdj.jar -install

FairDJ should exit after logging a message specifying where the settings file was written. To specify another location for this settings file, use the settings option:

java -jar fairdj.jar -settings < settings file >

Edit the settings file by hand, using your favourite XML/Text editor, to point to wherever you want to store your ratings, where your music is, and where your user database should be. The settings file is fairly well commented and should provide you with the information you need to configure your Fair DJ installation. The new user database will be empty, and only the default user and password, as specified in the settings file, will be valid.

To get help on the available options, use the help option:

java -jar fairdj.jar -help [< option >]

To connect to FairDJ, connect with a telnet client to the specified port (default 4444), for example:

telnet localhost 4444

Log in with your default user and password. To get help on the available commands in FairDJ, type "help" followed by enter in the telnet client.

Start by creating a superuser (master), and a user for yourself. They can be the same if you want to. Here is an example:

create myuser mypass MASTER

Known issues:
* Ogg tag support has not been verified.
* Equalizer has not been implemented.

Fair NAT is a script for configuring NAT on dedicated Linux routers. This is the home of my linux router shaper script which allows something like fair bandwidth sharing among clients in the local network. The script is not great or anything - please dont expect the holy grail here - I just thought Id publish it because many people helped me write it and maybe someone has some use for it. I bet there are still lots of things that can be improved. Sorry about the crappy design of this page, I dont have time to put more effort in better looks.
You have a certain number of Clients (User A - User N) in your LAN which are connected by a Switch (or a Hub or BNC) to the Linux Router which is supposed to act as a gateway to the internet. The trouble now is, User B has a lot of downloads running and User C uploads stuff day and night, which leaves User A who only wants to use an interactive SSH shell in the rain, since B and C already use up all bandwidth the internet connection offers.
What we need to do is to share available bandwidth fairly among clients. In order to achieve this, I first tried several searches at Google and Freshmeat. This turned up quite a lot of results, like the Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control HOWTO which is a must-read and also contains great scripts, like the Wondershaper for single users. Another great general purpose script I found was HTB.init, which doesnt do anything by default, but gives you an easy way to setup HTB queues. In case you prefer CBQ, theres a CBQ.init too. If you dont know what Im talking about, read the HOWTO above or continue reading here.
Since I never found a script that did exactly what I wanted, I decided to write my own. Its designed to be an all-I-need script, therefore it does not just setup Traffic Shaping, but Masquerading and Port Forwarding too. In short, it does everything that has to do with IPTables and Traffic Control. I use HTB (Hierarchical Token Bucket) to share bandwidth among clients (one class per client). On top of that I added a PRIO queue to prioritize interactive traffic on a per-user basis. On top of PRIO I set SFQ to treat connections fairly. In version 0.72, experimental support for IPP2P to recognize peer-to-peer traffic was added.
This is the simplified scheme for routing:
HTB class (for bandwidth sharing)
|
-- PRIO (for prioritizing interactive traffic)
|
--- Interactive: SFQ (to treat concurrent connections fairly)
--- Normal: SFQ
--- High-Traffic: SFQ
[ --- P2P: SFQ (if IPP2P support is enabled only) ]
I bet this can still be improved and Im always interested in ways to do so. In case you want another class structure, this can be done by replacing the parent_class and user_class functions in the script. See CLASS_MODE in Configuration section and the function documentation in the script for details. Feel free to send me your own functions with a short explanation, if you want me to make them available for everybody.
Heres a "real" graphic, which shows the complete qdisc/class structure on $DEV_LAN if you use the unmodified example configuration file. This graphic was created using a hacked version of Stef Coenes show.pl script and GraphViz. Click here to see it, but I warn you: its quite big. Heres a similar picture, which includes IPP2P support. Note that there are more filter rules (the blue arrows) now which put the filesharing traffic into the users prio band 4.
Main features:
- This is a variable with a space-separated list of features that should be enabled. Default is all enabled if you dont set this variable.
- PROC:
- Allow Fair NAT to change some system variables in /proc, like setting /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to 1.
- MODULES:
- Try to load kernel modules for QoS first.
- RESET:
- Fair NAT will replace all existing iptables rules with a very basic (empty) configuration. Not healthy for firewalls. You can disable this feature to keep the original rules in place. See Firewall Support below.
- NAT:
- Allow Fair NAT to configure NAT. You could disable this if you prefer to set this up yourself / let your firewall do it.
- FORWARD:
- Allow Fair NAT to configure Port Forwarding. Same as NAT, you can disable this if you dont need it.
- QOS_DOWN:
- Shape download traffic. If you know a little bit about traffic shaping and believe that download shaping is completely useless, feel free to disable this.
- QOS_UP:
- Shaping upload traffic can be disabled also. If you disable this and QOS_DOWN also, you could use Fair NAT for setting up NAT and Port Forwarding only, although thats not really the purpose of the script ;-)
- TOS:
- Allow Fair NAT to modify the TOS (type-of-service) field of packets. Right now, Fair NAT relies on this TOS field for shaping, so using this feature is highly recommended.
