In this paper, a visual development environment for components is presented. The advantages of this environment are the strict compliance with the component concept, new kinds of component editors, and the ability to write test cases for components.

We report on the development of a visual programming environment for building applications for execution on a range of parallel computing platforms. This work exploits the dataflow and list-processing parallelism naturally exposed in the Prograph language, by providing annotations to indicate that operations can be remotely executed, supported by a task-pooling model for parallel execution that...

This paper represents an integrated development environment for visual parallel programing. We believe that parallelism is clearly seen in visual form. Many classes of the problems are naturally described in flowchart form. So we design the integrated develop environment, described all its parts, and trace the entire path of the algorithm’s development.

It has been claimed that cortical binocularity can be preserved by raising exotropic kittens in a visual environment consisting of spatially periodic contours. We raised visually immature monkeys (Macaca mulatta) with prismatically or surgically induced horizontal and vertical strabismus in a visual environment consisting exclusively of vertical stripes. Electrophysiologic studies of the striat...

Visual pollution, observed in urban areas, makes human beings suffer indirectly from mental distress and illnesses in long term. We are daily confronted with a variety of advertisement pictures in city squares and review them in our minds. But we may not be aware of the fact that such a visual scramble leads to mind distraction, decreasing mental concentration. The present study applies the tec...
