Context. The footpoints of quiet Sun Transition Region (TR) loops do not seem to coincide with the photospheric magnetic structures appearing in traditional low-sensitivity magnetograms. Aims. To look for the so-far unidentified photospheric footpoints of TR loops using G-band bright points (BPs) as proxies for photospheric magnetic field concentrations. Methods. Comparison of TR measurements w...

MATE is a prototype of Computer-Human Interface based on a society of reactive agents and on a language of spatial description of tasks. Implemented as a text editor, this tool aims at showing that we can build a software (of an office automation type) using the advantages of the agent paradigm and the power of script languages in order to make this interface more personalizable, more extendabl...

In Asia, many documents processed in offices are table-form documents. Hence the automatic processing of table-form documents is an important issue of the office automation research. In this paper, we propose an efficient representation method for table-form documents. The representation method is based on three types of line segments. The line segments are normalized and sorted, hence the repr...

Petri nets exist for over 30 years. Especially in the last decade Petri nets have been put into practice extensively. Thanks to several useful extensions and the availability of computer tools, Petri nets have become a mature tool for modelling and analysing industrial systems. This paper describes an approach based on a high-level Petri net model, i.e. an extended version of the classical Petr...

Workflow systems are a common example of end-user programming, in the form of work process modelling, enactment and evolution. Example applications of workflow systems include office automation, software process modelling and business process codification. We describe a workflow system which provides novel end-user programming support for the coordinated use of workflow models, communication an...

Astonishing revolution in information technology, developments in electronic publishing and availability of manuscript management software's has provided lot of facilities to authors, reviewers as well as editors but it has also given birth to lot of e-problems. This communication highlights some of these e-problems besides discussing the manuscript management system practiced by Pakistan Journ...

The continuous demand for software of ever-increasing complexity will change our current approach to software development. In the future, the creation of software will apply increasing levels of automation to the development process. The application of componentware will become commonplace and development will move from the back office to the application user's workstation. All of these develop...

Until now, the Japanese computer industry has aimed at catching up with the US, especially IBM, in computer technology. The result is that three Japanese companies (Fujitsu, Hitachi, and NEC) now claim to offer equivalent computers that are faster than IBM's. In fact, the Japanese computer industry is presently setting its sights on surpassing the rest of the world,la and it sees as its opportu...
