CP1100/GPIB Interface is an interface between the "General
Purpose Interface Bus", which is an implementation of the Universal
Bus described in IEEE Standard 488-1975, and Unibus. This interface
enables TEKTRONIX CP1100 series controllers to operate
GPIB- compatible instruments connected to the General Purpose
Interface Bus. The designer can now incorporate...
Rapid Prototyping is a technique that has been created to alleviate some of the problems inherent in the traditional approach to software development. Various prototyping techniques currently employed are presented. The user interface aspect of system design is studied and where the benefit of prototyping user interfaces lies is shown....
A Hybrid Meshnet LAN, a new local area network architecture, has been proposed by Dr. Cheoul-Shin Kang and Dr. James Herzog. It provides for distributed control hybrid architecture which is good for effective load sharing under various local area network environments. Hybrid Meshnet has a dual channel structure, a token...
Streaming media and interactive television viewing experiences are becoming more commonplace with the introduction of services such as Netflix Streaming, the Apple TV, and Google TV aided by the increase adoption of broadband internet. As these services make their way into the living room, and developers struggle to accommodate more...
A Graphic User Interface is developed to determine the existence of a
particular sequence of piano notes within a monophonic sound waveform.
Such waveforms are recorded within the Graphic User Interface and then
passed to the monophonic analysis engine. The first phase of analysis segments
the PCM sound data to...
Geographical datasets are large, complex, and can be difficult for users to navigate and derive meaning from. These datasets, as well as the unique insights derived from them, provide tremendous opportunity for social change -- many of the global challenges humankind is currently facing can benefit from analytics or visualization...
Culprit Tracking is a technique to make lazy evaluation in a programming language even lazier. We sought to develop such a technique after noting poorly-distributed performance characteristics of graphical user interfaces (GUIs) programmed in lazy languages. A characteristic aspect of GUI programs is the intensive screen I/O. These programs are...
A remote Digital Signal Processing (DSP) lab for the Internet is developed to give students the opportunity to work together online with a remotely located Digital Signal Processor (DSP). Students in different locations can work together with the DSP as if they were present in the lab. To make this...
Cultural differences between designers and users is an important aspect to consider when designing products for other countries. However, many prominent authors in the human factors engineering field have failed to specifically address how to identify and utilize cultural differences in user interface (UI) design. This research evaluated if design...
Software engineers often need help with discovering and learning how to use APIs. For example, software engineers who are starting to learn Java, and they want to implement a certain feature in a program, they might want to reuse existing APIs in order to save time versus rewriting it themselves...
