This paper describes the widely-used ATLAS (Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software) project as it stands today. ATLAS is an instantiation of a paradigm in high performance library production and maintenance, which we term AEOS (Automated Empirical Optimization of Software); this style of library management has been created in order to allow software to keep pace with the incredible rate of...

Software visualisation employs various representations of software to help programmers better understand program code. However, there are many technologies that can be used to deliver software visualisations. These different software visualisation media have varying capabilities, and determining which medium is best suited for a particular software visualisation application can be a complex tas...

This paper presents an in-progress development of a framework for using design rationale and design patterns for developing reusable software systems. The proposed framework will be used as an integrated design environment for reusable software design, to support collaborative development of software applications by a group of software specialists from a library of building block cases. These g...

BACKGROUND Blindness and low vision are thought to be common in southern Sudan. However, the magnitude and geographical distribution are largely unknown. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of blindness and low vision, identify the main causes of blindness and low vision, and estimate targets for blindness prevention programs in Mankien payam (district), southern Sudan. METHODS AND FINDINGS A...

This paper presents the TACTUS Multi-Touch Research Testbed, a hardware and software system for enabling research in multi-touch interaction. A detailed discussion is provided on hardware construction, pitfalls, design options, and software architecture to bridge the gaps in the existing literature and inform the researcher on the practical requirements of a multi-touch research testbed. This i...

A set of software tools that use compactly supported radial basis functions (CSRBFs) to process scattered data is proposed in this paper. To solve problems concerning the processing of scattered data in such applications as reconstruction of functionaly defined geometric objects, surface retouching, and shape modifications, we employ a specially designed C++ software library. Thanks to the effi...

Component-based software development (CBSD) is a very promising software engineering technique for improving reuse and maintenance. Nevertheless, there are still some difficulties in practice when reusing, maintaining and evolving components and/or component-based (CB) applications. In this paper, we review the concepts of version and configuration management and apply them in the context of CB...

We present an embedded-system design flow, discuss its details, and demonstrate its advantages. We adopt the object-oriented methodology for the system-level model because software dominates hardware in embedded systems and the objectoriented methodology is already established for software design and reuse. As the building-block of system implementation, we synthesise application-specific proce...

Although component-based architectures favor the building and extension of digital libraries, the configuration of such systems is not a trivial task. Our approach to simplify the tasks of constructing and customizing component-based digital libraries is based on an assistant tool: a setup wizard that segments those tasks into well-defined steps and drives the user along these steps. For genera...
