The Microsoft .NET Framework represents a major advance over previous runtime environments available for Windows platforms and offers a number of architectural features that would be of value in scientific programs. However there are such major differences between.NET and legacy environments under both Windows and Unix, that the effort of migrating software is substantial. Accordingly, software...

Collection of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) accounts for a significant proportion of most municipal budgets, and has drawn some degree of researchers‟ interest. This study was conducted in Ota, Southwest Nigeria, to explore the use of Visual basic program as an innovative tool to select the most economic haulage system among three systems found in literature (conventional-, modified- and Stationa...

In this project a highly secured ATM transaction system has been developed with the help of visual basic programming and Embedded C. The authenticator (Bank) generates a random number and provides that to the card user whenever the user inserts his card on the ATM machine. The random generated code will be send to the card user with the help of GSM technology. The user can provide this code on ...

In any brake system of an automobile or passenger vehicle, an increase in Master/Wheel cylinder diameter ratio leads to an increase in brake efficiency. This paper focuses on Master/Wheel cylinder diameter effect on the brake efficiency. A VISUAL BASIC computer code was developed for computation of Master/Wheel cylinder diameter ratio corresponding to break efficiency. Aided by the developed so...

I work in a multi-disciplinary team at Microsoft that is responsible for designing and building the user experience for users using the Visual Studio .Net suite of products. Visual Studio .Net is a large product suite, comprising a variety of software tools such as code profilers, debuggers, bug tracking tools, testing tools, code editors and language compilers. Multiple programming languages a...

The increasing importance of software measurement has led to development of new software measures. Many metrics have been proposed related to various constructs like class, coupling, cohesion, inheritance, information hiding and polymorphism. The central role that software development plays in the delivery and application of information technology, managers are increasingly focusing on process ...

The aim of this research is to develop a system for estimating cost contingencies during a tender preparation. The proposed system is composed of a causal belief network and a risk-contingency model. A survey was conducted to evaluate the significance of twenty two factors affecting residential projects' cost overruns. The results were employed to define the conditional probability distribution...

Training aims at supporting student in developing specific physical skills. Therefore developer has to design effective modules for such purpose. He must develop his modules so that to represent/simulate all training activities via computer screen. According to our experience, such e-training modules are more complex as well as difficult than e-learning modules. Idea of research is to develop e...

PLT Scheme (DrScheme and MzScheme) supports COM components with two pieces of software. The rst piece is MzCOM, a COM class that makes a Scheme evaluator available to COM clients. With MzCOM, programmers can embed Scheme code in programs written in mainstream languages such as C++ or Visual BASIC. Some applications can also load MzCOM. The other piece of component-support software is MysterX, w...

According to the working principle of spherical hob, computing formulae of normal and axial profile of the spherical hob are deduced, and calculation methods of other main parameters are introduced in the paper. Then the computer aided design and calculation of spherical hob is realized by Visual Basic programming language, which increases the calculation speed and accuracy. And the new manufac...
