Open RObot COntrol Software 1.2.1
Open RObot COntrol Software (Orocos) framework applies software patterns in C++ to achieve real-time execution of software... more>>
The Orocos project started as a Free Software project for robotics, but it has outgrown its robotics-dependent roots. Hence, "Orocos" now consists of two decoupled but integrated sub-projects:
Open Realtime Control Services.
This is a hard realtime Software Framework for all possible machine control applications, fully independent of the projects original robotics focus. It is designed to run safely parallel user defined tasks, on both vanilla Linux 2.6 and hard realtime RTAI. Extensive graphical configuration support is available.
Available features: hardware abstraction, operating system abstraction, event handling, hierarchical and parallel state machines, realtime "PLC" scripting, command parsing, online property configuration, multiple time- and event-triggered threads, advanced data protection for synchronous/asynchronous data flow, strongly typed data flow, (on-line) configuration support, ...
Integration between RTAI and TAO and ACE is also part of the ongoing work towards a hard realtime distributed control infastructure based on CORBA.
Open Robot Control Software.
A set of class libraries and an application framework offering generic functionality for machine tools and robots: cascaded control loops and control components, motion generation and interpolation; kinematics and dynamics; robot-specific control algorithms; estimation and identification; etc.
The following families of applications have working implementations available: force-controlled 6R manipulator arm and Cartesian XYZ machine tools. We would welcome developers to start mobile robot and humanoid robot application(s). In those efforts, much of the material of the above-mentioned applications can be reused. In addition, detailed support is available through the Developers mailing list. So, each new application requires moderate programming effort. (Not taking into account system-dependent modules such as device drivers, or kinematic routines.)
Open RObot COntrol Software is designed to appeal to roboticists. See the Orocos project homepage for an automated download script.
Enhancements:
- Support for RTAI 3.4 and 3.5 was improved.
- Various fixes were made in the CORBA support layer.
- The example code and documentation had a review.
Web Submission and Review Software 0.53
Web Submission and Review Software is a Web-based system that is used for the submission and review of papers. more>>
One of the goals of this software was to make administration as easy as possible. In particular, you never need to run scripts etc. In principle, to install this software you just unpack the zip file in some directory in your web tree (call it the BASE directory), point your browser at that directory and off you go.
I will very much appreciate any comments that you can give me regarding this software.
Enhancements:
Changes to chair/administrator interface:
- Added Undo/Redo link to the administration page
- Re-implemented the voting mechanism to allow multiple concurrent ballots
- Let the chair play with assignments of submissions to reviewers before these assignments are visible to the reviewers
- Let the chair manage PC membership, Edit review guidelines and setup votes also during the submission phase
Changes to reviewer interface:
- Allow reviewers to login to the site (and vote in ballots if any) also during the submission phase
- Added support for batch upload of reviews in a scorecard file
- Backup old versions of reviews and let reviewers browse the old versions of their reviews (this is useful, e.g., if they overwite somethign by mistake)

php syslog viewer 7.2.0
php syslog viewer is a free web application written in PHP for viewing and searching system logs stored in a MySQL database. more>>
Good system administrators review the logs from each system they administer. As the number of systems gets bigger, this becomes a more complex and time consuming task. Eventually the system administrator would like a way to combine the log messages from all of the systems into one central location, but that is not enough. Without a good search facility, finding the information the system administrator needs is like finding a needle in a haystack.
This is where php syslog viewer comes to the rescue. Using a few common Free Software tools (syslog-ng, stunnel, MySQL, apache, and php), php syslog viewer provides a total solution for centralized logging and log management. Client systems send their log files to a server which stores them in a database. php syslog viewer provides the system administrator with a view into that database. php syslog viewer also includes a tool for optimizing searches and archiving older data so that it takes up less room on the disk.
php syslog viewer is Free Software licensed under the GNU GPL (version 2 or later) as published by the Free Software Foundation.
Main features:
- Log Searching
- Real Time Log Viewer
- Automatic Log Rotation
- User Authentication Possibilities
- LDAP
- Active Directory
- Built-in Authentication
- 3rd Party Client API (outputs XML)
- OSI Certified Open Source Software
- Log Archiving
