In the ubiquitous era, it is necessary to research the architectures of multiprocessor system with high performance and low power consumption. A simulator developed in high level language is useful because of its easily changeable system architecture including application specific instruction sets and functions. However, there is a problem in processing speed that both PCs and workstations prov...

Ontology-driven software development has gained significant interest in domain-specific application development. Ontologies are treated as formal models representing knowledge, which can be used for automatic code generation. Among existing technologies, Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) has been widely used to generate domain-specific metamodels and Java code using Ecore. Such robust technologi...

The objective of this research is (1) to design and construct the wind turbine simulator based on the adjustable actual wind speed. (2) To investigate the wind distribution, and (3) tobe applied for testing the power output of the micro-wind turbine in the laboratory. Design and CAD drawing was applied to construct the wind turbine simulator prototype.The 3 phase induction motor with axial fan ...

Orient is a project to develop an ontology engineering tool that integrates into existing industry tooling environments – the Eclipse platform and the WebSphere Studio developing tools family. This paper describes how two important issues are addressed during the project, namely tool integration and scalability. We show how Orient morphs into the Eclipse platform and achieves UI and data level ...

While the dynamic linking mechanism of modern programming languages, such as Java, allows loading of classes dynamically, it does not allow class reloading. Hence, dynamic linking facilitates development of component platforms, such as eclipse RCP, which supports dynamic loading but not dynamic updates of components, since this requires reloading. This paper presents an approach that enhances e...

PURPOSE To create a user friendly, accurate, real time computer simulator to facilitate the design of dual foil scattering systems for electron beams on radiotherapy accelerators. The simulator should allow for a relatively quick, initial design that can be refined and verified with subsequent Monte Carlo (MC) calculations and measurements. METHODS The simulator consists of an analytical algo...

PURPOSE To evaluate a haptic-based simulator, MicroVisTouch™, as an assessment tool for capsulorhexis performance in cataract surgery. The study is a prospective, unmasked, nonrandomized dual academic institution study conducted at the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins Medical Center (Baltimore, MD, USA) and King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia). METHODS This prospect...

We report on the first Green Bank Telescope observations at 427, 820 and 1400 MHz of the newly discovered, highly inclined and relativistic double pulsar binary. We focus on the brief eclipse of PSR J0737−3039A, the faster pulsar at superior conjunction, when it passes behind PSR J0737−3039B. We measure a frequency-averaged eclipse duration of 27.4 ± 1.3 s, or 0.00310 ± 0.00015 in orbital phase...

PURPOSE This study evaluated the shear bond strengths of light-polymerized urethane dimethacrylate (Eclipse) and heat-polymerized polymethylmethacrylate (Meliodent) denture base polymers to intraoral and laboratory-processed reline materials. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty disks measuring 15 mm diameter and 2 mm thick were prepared for each denture base material following the manufacturers' rec...

Open source software has gained a lot of well-deserved attention during the last few years. Eclipse is one of the most successful open source communities providing an open development environment and an application lifecycle platform. The main aim of this paper is to describe a case study on contributing to the Eclipse open source community and report experiences. The most important experiences...
