The next generations of both biological engineering and computer engineering demand that control be exerted at the molecular level. Creating, characterizing and controlling synthetic biological systems may provide us with the ability to build cells that are capable of a…

In this note, I propose two extensions to the Java virtual machine (or VM) to allow dynamic languages such as Dylan, Scheme and Smalltalk to be efficiently implemented on the VM. These extensions do not affect the performance of pure…

This paper presents a free Java software platform which enables users to easily create advanced robotic applications together with image processing. This novel tool is composed of two layers: 1) Easy Java
Simulations (EJS), an open-source tool which provides support…

Java 1.5 will include a type system (called JSR-14) that supports parametric polymorphism, or generic classes. This will bring many benefits to Java programmers, not least because current Java practise makes heavy use of logically-generic classes, including container classes. Translation…

Region-based memory management offers several important advantages over garbage-collected heap, including real-time performance, better data locality and efficient use of limited memory. The concept of regions was first introduced for a call-by-value functional language by Tofte and Talpin, and has…

Virtual and remote laboratories have improved
learning and training in the academic community. They allow students to acquire methods, skills and experience related to real equipment in an intuitive and cost-effective way. The purpose of this paper is to present…

This paper describes a set of tools and Java classes that allow the Lucene text search engine to use morphological information to index and search; in particular, it describes the use of the linguistic resources developed for the Apertium open-source…

In the manufacturing industry out-sourcing/integration is becoming an important business pattern (not a clear statement-integration still done in house-component design and manufacturing outsourced). An engineering system often consists of many subsystems supplied by different companies. Bridge between thoughts is weak.…
