Abstract We present a web-based open-source tool for interactive translation prediction (ITP) and describe its underlying architecture. ITP systems assist human translators by making context-based computer-generated suggestions as they type. Most of the ITP systems in literature are strongly coupled with a statistical machine translation system that is conveniently adapted to provide the suggestions. Our system, however, follows a resource-agnostic approach and suggestions are obtained from any unmodified black-box bilingual resource. This paper reviews our ITP method and describes the architecture of Forecat, a web tool, partly based on the recent technology of web components, that eases the use of our ITP approach in any web application requiring this kind of translation assistance. We also evaluate the performance of our method when using an unmodified Moses-based statistical machine translation system as the bilingual resource.

A promising way to support software reuse is based on Component-Based Software Development (CBSD). Open Source Software (OSS) products are increasingly available that can be freely used in product development. However, OSS communities still face several challenges before taking full advantage of the “reuse mechanism”: many OSS projects duplicate effort, for instance when many projects implement a similar system in the same application domain and in the same topic. One successful counter-example is the FFmpeg multimedia project; several of its components are widely and consistently reused in other OSS projects. Documented is the evolutionary history of the various libraries of components within the FFmpeg project, which presently are reused in more than 140 OSS projects. Most use them as black-box components; although a number of OSS projects keep a localized copy in their repositories, eventually modifying them as needed (white-box reuse). In both cases, the authors argue that FFmpeg is a successful project that provides an excellent exemplar of a reusable library of OSS components.

Perkembangan teknologi berpengaruh terhadap dunia pendidikan terutama teknologi berperan sebagai media penyebaran informasi melalui internet. Dengan adanya teknologi maka informasi dapat diakses dengan sangat cepat dan mudah. Sistem informasi berbasis web merupakan salah satu produk dari perkembangan teknologi yang ada. Melalui sistem informasi pengelolaan data tidak memiliki batasan tempat dan waktu. Pengembangan sistem informasi karya inovatif di STIKI Malang dibutuhkan untuk memudahkan pengelolaan data karya yang sudah dibuat oleh mahasiswa maupun dosen. Metode yang digunakan untuk mengembangkan sistem informasi karya inovatif ini adalah metode waterfall, karena metode ini memiliki struktur yang berurutan sehingga proses pengembangan menjadi lebih terkontrol. Pengembangan sistem informasi karya inovatif STIKI Malang menggunakan aplikasi open source yaitu CMS (Content Management System) Wordpress guna mempercepat proses pengembangan sistem informasi. Sistem informasi yang dikembangkan memanfaatkan beberapa plugins wordpress seperti Advanced Custom Fields dan Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields. Sistem informasi karya mahasiswa yang sudah dibuat dilakukan proses pengujian menggunakan metode black box testing untuk memastikan semua fungsi sistem informasi berjalan dengan baik.

AbstractThe R package yaps was introduced in 2017 as a transparent open source alternative to closed source manufacturer-provided solutions to estimate positions of fish (and other aquatic animals) tagged with acoustic transmitters.Although yaps is open source and transparent, the process from raw detections to final tracks has proved to be challenging for many potential users, effectively preventing most users from accessing the benefits of using yaps. Especially, the very important process of synchronizing the hydrophone arrays have proven to be an obstacle for many potential users.To make yaps more approachable to the wider fish tracking community, we have developed and added user-friendly functions assisting users in the complex process of synchronizing the data.Here, we introduce these functions and a six-step protocol intended to provide users with an example workflow that can be used as a template enabling users to apply yaps to their own data. Using example data collected by an array of Vemco VR2 hydrophones, the protocol walks the user through the entire process from raw data to final tracks. Example data sets and complete code for reproducing results are provided.

<div>We present open-source implementations of the linear-scaling Fast Multipole Method (FMM) within the Polarizable Embedding (PE) model for efficient treatment of large polarizable environments in computational spectroscopy simulations. The implementations are tested for accuracy, efficiency, and usability on model systems as well as more realistic biomolecular systems. We explain how FMM parameters affect the calculation of molecular properties and show that PE calculations employing FMM can be carried out in a black-box manner. The efficiency of the linear-scaling approach is demonstrated by simulating the UV/Vis spectrum of a chromophore in an environment of more than one million polarizable sites. Our implementations are interfaced to several open-source quantum chemistry programs, making computational spectroscopy</div><div>simulations within the PE model and FMM available to a large variety of methods and a broad user base.</div>
