Word 2000 VBA Programmer's Reference
Authors: Duncan Mackenzie, Felipe Martins
Venue:  (1999)

:Word 2000 is an important part of the Office 2000 program suite, and will be available in the Premium, Professional, Standard and Small Business editions of Office 2000. Word has traditionally been the Office suite wordprocessor program par excellence. It still remains that way, but with Office 2000 there is a strong emphasis on between-application automation, ease of use, and the smart new bells and whistles that 2000 brings. Using VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the user can program his or her own programs in what is essentially a subset of the Visual Basic programming languages. This is neat because it allows you to automate a lot of the word processing tasks performed daily, one press of a button can link Excel spreadsheets into Word documents, prepare chapters for layout at Wrox Press, etc. This book presents a full reference to the Word object model, which is essentially the object oriented system of organizing the functional capacities that make up the Word program. There will be a short introduction to VBA itself, and the rest of the book will document aspects of programming Word through that object model. This book will be in three broad sections: the first part introduces Word and VBA; the second offers interesting, thematic discussions of some of the capacities available to Word VBA. The third and final part offers a full reference to the object model of Word.

On the Numerical Solution of $(\lambda^2 A + \lambda B + C), x = b$ and Application to Structural Dynamics
Authors: V. Simoncini, F. Perotti
Venue: SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing (2001)

In this paper we address the numerical solution of a large linear system depending quadratically on a parameter that varies in a wide range. We analyze a solution method, whose computational cost grows only sublinearly with the number of parameters, that relies on the use of an indefinite inner product. Important implementation aspects are treated in detail. The problem arises in various application areas: we shall report on our experience with cases in structural dynamics.

Exciting understanding in Pompeii through on-site parallel interaction with dual time virtual models
Authors: Daniela Scagliarini, Antonella Coralini, Erika Vecchietti, Tullio Salmon Cinotti, Luca Roffia, Stefania Galasso, Maurizio Malavasi, Massimiliano Pigozzi, Enrico Romagnoli, Fabio Sforza
Venue: Proceedings of the 2001 conference on Virtual reality, archeology, and cultural heritage (2001)

Communication effectiveness and reconstruction validation are two important goals faced by archaeologists. This paper shows how these targets can be reached more easily by means of a mobile and user-centric fruition system designed with both the visitor's and the archaeologist's needs in mind. This system, called MUSE(1), consists of interactive multimedia tablets connected to a site control centre by a wireless link. Virtual models based on reconstructive hypotheses made by the archaeologists can be enjoyed on-site. Fruition may occur both on the mobile tablet and on conveniently located high-performance display stations radio-controlled by the tablet itself. The system allows for immediate comparison between present and original reality through simultaneous surfing of two synchronised virtual reconstructions. Natural and easy navigation in the virtual worlds is achieved by making the tablet sensitive to its rotation with respect to two axes.This paper shows how the proposed navigation metaphor supports the archaeologist in reconstruction validation and drives the visitor to an easy and engaging learning experience. The system will be demonstrated at the "Casa del Centenario" in Pompeii.
The New Imperialists
Authors: Mark Leibovich
Venue:  (2002)

:They were not content to do something as mundane as build a successful business. Rather, they were hell-bent on global domination. Along the way, they were afforded the stature of world leaders, idolized like rock stars, and treated like folk heroes. When the history of the Digital Age is written, the story will be boiled down to the empires created by five men: Bill Gates, Steve Case, Larry Ellison, John Chambers, and Jeff Bezos. They are The New Imperialists. Yet, who really are they? Beyond the scores of cover stories, newspaper headlines, television interviews and biographies, their personal motives and motivators have remained a mystery. Until now. Mark Leibovich spent 18 months interviewing the men themselves and over 400 people who have known them best: family, friends, neighbors, former teachers, classmates and lovers, colleagues, employees and adversaries. Combining the information he gleaned with his own unique take on these men, Leibovich's has written a fascinating collection of biographies emphasizing their little known and deeply personal quirks, motivations, warts, demons, and vanities. Gates talks about his boyhood best friend, whose death in a fluke accident at age 15 has haunted him -- and perhaps driven him -- ever since. Ellison reflects on his father's recurring scorn that he just wasn't good enough to ever succeed. Bezos talks about never knowing his natural father. Chambers reveals how a childhood learning disability hampered his early schooling. Case addresses the tensions that marred his relationship with his AOL co-founder, Jim Kimsey. What are the common denominators that drove them to invent, conquer and rule their own economic realm? Are they brilliant or were they just lucky? With compelling style, Leibovich reveals their life stories as never before told.

A scalable hash ripple join algorithm
Authors: Gang Luo, Curt J. Ellmann, Peter J. Haas, Jeffrey F. Naughton
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM SIGMOD international conference on Management of data (2002)

Recently, Haas and Hellerstein proposed the hash ripple join algorithm in the context of online aggregation. Although the algorithm rapidly gives a good estimate for many join-aggregate problem instances, the convergence can be slow if the number of tuples that satisfy the join predicate is small or if there are many groups in the output. Furthermore, if memory overflows (for example, because the user allows the algorithm to run to completion for an exact answer), the algorithm degenerates to block ripple join and performance suffers. In this paper, we build on the work of Haas and Hellerstein and propose a new algorithm that (a) combines parallelism with sampling to speed convergence, and (b) maintains good performance in the presence of memory overflow. Results from a prototype implementation in a parallel DBMS show that its rate of convergence scales with the number of processors, and that when allowed to run to completion, even in the presence of memory overflow, it is competitive with the traditional parallel hybrid hash join algorithm.

Object-Oriented Design for Temporal GIS
Authors: John M. Wachowicz, Monica Wachowiez
Venue:  (1999)

:Object-oriented Design for Temporal GIS explores the major components of the object-oriented analysis and design methods, how they can be used for modeling spatio-temporal data, and how these components are developed and maintained within GIS. It also offers practical guidance to object-oriented methods by demonstrating the feasibility of applying such a method to issues involved in handling spatio-temporal data. The author demonstrates how this knowledge might be used in a wide range of applications such as political boundary record maintenance (historical data), disease incidence rate analysis in epidemics (diffusion rate), and environmental studies of climate change (time-series data).

Finite Element Methods with Matching and Nonmatching Meshes for Maxwell Equations with Discontinuous Coefficients
Authors: Zhiming Chen, Qiang Du, Jun Zou
Venue: SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis (2000)

We investigate the finite element methods for solving time-dependent Maxwell equations with discontinuous coefficients in general three-dimensional Lipschitz polyhedral domains. Both matching and nonmatching finite element meshes on the interfaces are considered, and optimal error estimates for both cases are obtained. The analysis of the latter case is based on an abstract framework for nested saddle point problems, along with a characterization of the trace space for H(curl;D), a new extension theorem for H(curl;D) functions in any Lipschitz domain D, and a novel compactness argument for deriving discrete inf-sup conditions.
A simple approach to computer aided milling with interactive graphics
Authors: Steven G. Satterfield, Francisco Rodriguez, David F. Rogers
Venue: Proceedings of the 4th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques (1977)

This paper describes CAMILL, a system for computer aided milling of ship hull models defined with interactive graphics. The major hardware components of CAMILL are a mini-computer based refresh display and a three axis numerically controlled milling machine. For hardcopy documentation there is a large flatbed plotter. The two major software components are an interactive display program and a cutting program. The interactive display program is the human interface and provides capabilities for creating and modifying the ship design. The cutting program is executed in an intelligent terminal interfaced to the milling machine. The data used by the cutting program is generated by the display program and stored on a magnetic cassete tape. This cassette is transferred to the intelligent terminal for use by the cutting program. The main function of the cutting program is to direct the milling of the desired ship hull.

The evolution of stochastic regular motifs for protein sequences
Authors: Brian J. Ross
Venue: New Generation Computing (2002)

Stochastic regular motifs are evolved for protein sequences using genetic programming. The motif language, SRE-DNA, is a stochastic regular expression language suitable for denoting biosequences. Three restricted versions of SRE-DNA are used as target languages for evolved motifs. The genetic programming experiments are implemented in DCTG-GP, which is a genetic programming system that uses logic-based attribute grammars to define the target language for evolved programs. Earlier preliminary work tested SRE-DNA's viablility as a representation language for aligned protein sequences. This work establishes that SRE-DNA is also suitable for evolving motifs for unaligned sets of sequences.
