Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing virtualized development environments. By providing automated creation and provisioning of virtual machines using Sun’s VirtualBox, Vagrant provides the tools to create and configure lightweight, reproducible, and portable virtual environments. For more information, see the part of the getting started guide on ”Why Vagrant?” Are you ready to use vagrant to revolutionize the way you work? Check out the getting started guide and the getting started video. - anelson

The following articles represent works in the fields of online anonymity, transaction untraceability, coin divisibility, double spending, offline convertibility, and blind signatures. For additional research, Cryptographer's World is an excellent resource for cryptography and its authors. In many of the academic citations below, an abstract and the full article text will be available via the link provided, in reverse chronological order: - anelson

Compressed sensing, also known as compressive sensing, compressive sampling and sparse sampling, is a technique for acquiring and reconstructing a signal utilizing the prior knowledge that it is sparse or compressible. - anelson

Most of my readers will understand that cache is a fast but small type of memory that stores recently accessed memory locations. This description is reasonably accurate, but the "boring" details of how processor caches work can help a lot when trying to understand program performance. In this blog post, I will use code samples to illustrate various aspects of how caches work, and what is the impact on the performance of real-world programs. The examples are in C#, but the language choice has little impact on the performance scores and the conclusions they lead to. - anelson

Piccolo2D is a toolkit that supports the development of 2D structured graphics programs, in general, and Zoomable User Interfaces (ZUIs), in particular. A ZUI is a new kind of interface that presents a huge canvas of information on a traditional computer display by letting the user smoothly zoom in, to get more detailed information, and zoom out for an overview. We use a "scene graph" model that is common to 3D environments. Basically, this means that Piccolo2D maintains a hierarchal structure of objects and cameras, allowing the application developer to orient, group and manipulate objects in meaningful ways. - anelson

This package contains AASM, a library for adding finite state machines to Ruby classes. AASM started as the acts_as_state_machine plugin but has evolved into a more generic library that no longer targets only ActiveRecord models. AASM has the following features: States Machines Events Transitions - anelson

This is a library of WPF controls for dynamic data visualization. It features efficient binding mechanisms and real-time interactivity capable of charting millions of data points. Current release allows flexible drawing of line/marker plots. DynamicDataDisplay controls can be used in your application in the same way as other WPF controls. Any data can be used as a source of coordinates on your chart. It can be an array, a DataTable or a function. Every change in the data source causes update of the chart. As an example, you can use this feature for monitoring running computations. Using mouse or keyboard you can zoom in deep into the graph to see its subtle details. - anelson

The POI project consists of APIs for manipulating various file formats based upon Microsoft's OLE 2 Compound Document format, and Office OpenXML format, using pure Java. In short, you can read and write MS Excel files using Java. In addition, you can read and write MS Word and MS PowerPoint files using Java. POI is your Java Excel solution (for Excel 97-2007). However, we have a complete API for porting other OLE 2 Compound Document formats and welcome others to participate. - anelson

The POI library can now be compiled as a Ruby extension, allowing the API to be called from Ruby language programs. Ruby users can therefore read and write OLE2 documents, such as Excel files with ease - anelson
