This Symbian C++ code example demonstrates how to easily use the onboard camera with zoom and autofocus, utilising an accompanying CameraWrapper made by Forum Nokia. The Camera Wrapper supports all Nokia s S60 devices based on S60 3rd Edition and newer, providing a unified interface for various Symbian and S60 camera APIs some of which have previously been Feature Pack specific or only available via an SDK plug-in. The example application supports the use of both the keypad and touch UI. The application can be self-signed, but it also provides an option to use the dedicated camera key (Symbian signing required). The example application replaces the separate examples published for S60 3rd Edition, FP1 (S60 Platform: Camera Example with AutoFocus Support v2.2) and FP2 (S60 Camera Example AutoFocus 3rd Ed FP2).
Quartz is a full-featured, open source job scheduling system that can be integrated with, or used along side virtually any J2EE or J2SE application - from the smallest stand-alone application to the largest e-commerce system. Quartz can be used to create simple or complex schedules for executing tens, hundreds, or even tens-of-thousands of jobs jobs whose tasks are defined as standard Java components or EJBs. The Quartz Scheduler includes many enterprise-class features, such as JTA transactions and clustering.
Quartz is freely usable, licensed under the Apache 2.0 license.
Feeding antennas with proper signals can be difficult. The signal is often described as a voltage, and voltages are not well defined in electromagnetic wave formulations. There are several tricks to model voltage generators in such situations, and one is the magnetic frill. This model shows the basic steps of defining a magnetic frill voltage generator for a dipole antenna, and it also compares the resulting antenna impedance with known results.

Abstract-In this paper, simple autonomous chaotic circuits
coupled by resistors are investigated. By carrying out computer
calculations and circuit experiments, irregular self-switching phenomenon
of three spatial patterns characterized by the phase
states of quasi-synchronization of chaos can be observed from
only four simple chaotic circuits. This is the same phenomenon
as chaotic wandering of spatial patterns observed very often from
systems with a large number of degrees of freedom. Namely, one
of spatial-temporal chaos observed from systems of large size can
be also generated in the proposed system consisting of only four
chaotic circuits. A six subcircuits case and a coupled chaotic circuits
networks are also studied, and such systems are confirmed
to produce more complicated spatio-temporal phenomena.
Behavioral models are used in games and computer graphics for
realistic simulation of massive crowds. In this paper, we present a
GPU based implementation of Reynolds [1987] algorithm for simulating
flocks of birds and propose an extension to consider environment
self occlusion. We performed several experiments and
the results showed that the proposed approach runs up to three
times faster than the original algorithm when simulating high density
crowds, without compromising significantly the original crowd
behavior.
Commercially available active noise control headphones rely on fixed analog controllers to drive "anti-noise" loudspeakers. Our design uses an adaptive controller to optimally cancel unwanted acoustic noise. This headphone would be particularly useful for workers who operate or work near heavy machinery and engines because the noise is selectively eliminated. Desired sounds, such as speech and warning signals, are left to be heard clearly. The adaptive control algorithm is implemented on a Texas Instruments (TI™ )
1
TMS320C30GEL digital signal processor (DSP), which drives a Sony CD550 headphone/microphone system. Our experiments indicate that adaptive noise control results in a dramatic improvement in performance over fixed noise control. This improvement is due to the availability of high-performance programmable DSPs and the self-optimizing and tracking
capabilities of the adaptive controller in response to the surrounding noise.
These codes require an ASCII input file called input.dat of the following form:
Lower Limit on x Upper Limit on x Final Time
Pressure for x<0 when t=0 Density for x<0 when t=0 Speed for x<0 when t=0
Pressure for x>0 when t=0 Density for x>0 when t=0 Speed for x>0 when t=0
These codes produce 8 ASCII output files:
density.out. Density vs. x
entropy.out. Entropy vs. x
mach.out. Mach number vs. x
massflux.out. Mass flux vs. x
pressure.out. Pressure vs. x
sound.out. Speed-of-sound vs. x
velocity.out. Velocity vs. x
waves.out. A description of the solution in terms of the three waves defined in the book (+,-,0).
An Overview of Smart Card Security.
The smart card, an intelligent token, is a credit card sized plastic card embedded with an integrated circuit chip. It provides not only memory capacity, but computational capability as well. The self-containment of smart card makes it resistant to attack as it does not need to depend upon potentially vulnerable external resources. Because of this characteristic, smart cards are often used in different applications which require strong security protection and authentication.
as a message came into prominence with the publication in 1948 of an influential paper by Claude Shannon, "A Mathematical Theory of Communication." This paper provides the foundations of information theory and endows the word information not only with a technical meaning but also a measure. If the sending device is equally likely to send any one of a set of N messages, then the preferred measure of "the information produced when one message is chosen from the set" is the base two logarithm of N (This measure is called self-information). In this paper, Shannon cont
