Categories: Miscellaneous

Author: Microsoft

Latest version: 1.5
Added 2006-06-24Updated 2007-07-23

Windows-based environment to create robotics applications across a variety of hardware.

The Microsoft Robotics Studio delivers three areas of software:
- A services-oriented extensible runtime architecture that can span a variety of hardware and devices. The programming interface can be used to address robots using 8-bit or 16-bit processors as well as 32-bit systems with multi-core processors and devices from simple touch sensors to laser distance finding devices. The runtime uses a .NET-based concurrency libraryfor asynchronous application development.
- A set of tools that make programming and debugging robot applications scenarios easier. These include a visual simulation environment that uses the Ageia Technologies PhysX engine.
- A set of technology libraries services samples to help developers get started with writing robot applications.

Third parties can extend the functionality of the platform by providing additional libraries and services. Both remote (PC-based) and autonomous (robot-based) execution scenarios can be developed using a selection of programming languages, including C# VB.NET, JScript, IronPython, and third-party languages that conform to its services-based architecture.

Source Code Search Engine

Home Page

Categories: Miscellaneous

Author: Semantic Designs

Source code search engine.
Provides an interactive interface enabling one to search across a large source code base, using the language structure of each of the languages providing more precise answers than simple string searches can produce. For any query, the Search Engine offers a list of matches with surrounding context; the use can select a specific match and immediately inspect the source file.

Features include:
- Interactive search and inspection of source code
- Search across millions of lines of code, tens of thousands of source code files
- Query in terms of language lexical constructs such as identifiers, numbers, operators, string literals or comments to minimize false positives
- Generic queries can match identifiers or string literals across multiple programming languages
- Complex queries can match complex statements
- Queries can have patterns (or regular expressions) on character strings
- Numbers can compared to values or ranges
- Language elements are normalized so escape conventions do not confound searches
- Searches ignore language-specific intervening whitespace, linebreaks and comments, providing more accurate answers
- Optional GREP-like string (regular expression) search
- Scrollable list of search hits with context
- Can handle many computer languages (Java, C#, C++, etc.)
- Translates arbitrary characters sets into a uniform representation for indexing and display

UI Mapper (User Interface Mapper) for .NET.
A UI Mapper is a library and set of controls that allow your UI to be dynamically created at run-time, loaded from your business entity objects, as well as to persist the UI changes back. It also allows you to use your own data-access layer, framework (like CSLA), or object-relational mapper (like NHibernate, LLBLGen Pro, WilsonORMapper) to transparently load and persist your business entity objects to a relational database.
WilsonUIMapper supports both Web and Windows applications, and your own custom DAL or O/R Mapper, as well as the WilsonORMapper. You can also create and plug-in your own custom Widgets to wrap third party visual controls, or to make your own edit controls.
Features include:
- UIMapper framework: XML mapping files between UI elements and business entities
- ListView control: basically a grid control, but automates paging and sorting
- EditView control: basically an edit screen, with read-only view and multiple columns
- Open architecture: plug in you own DAL, framework, O/R mapper, custom controls, etc.

Opensource Semantic Web/RDF library written in C#.

Features include:
- Reading and writing RDF/XML, Turtle, NTriples, and most of Notation 3, at around 20,000 statements/second.
- All operations are streaming, which means the entire document doesn't ever need to be loaded into memory, so it should scale.
- Two built-in types of RDF stores: an in-memory hashtable-indexed store for small amounts of data and an SQL store with MySQL and SQLite backends for large amounts of data.
- Creating new SQL-based stores takes minutes, and implementing other types of stores is as simple as extending an abstract class.
- Statements are quads, rather than triples, with the fourth 'meta' field left for application-specific uses.
- Using statements in a store is a streaming process.
- Simple reasoning engines based on RDFS and OWL.
- Home-grown RSquary query engine. It's experimental and so-far undocumented, but it's there. It supports a subset of SPARQL.
- An XPathNavigator implemented over RDF data, allowing XPath expressions to be evaluated on a semantic web data model.

Linguist Parsing System

Home Page

Categories: Miscellaneous

Author: Fred Mellender

Latest version: 1.0
Added 2007-03-12

The Linguist Parsing System (LPS) supplies the C# programmer with many of the facilities of the popular Unix utilities Lex and Yacc. LPS has a different interface, which handles a superset of Yacc’s grammars and returns all valid parses of its input when the grammar is ambiguous.

Instead of embedding programming statements in the grammar specification, the programmer will construct and then invoke the LPS parser from her C# program. LPS will return all valid parses of the input as parse trees (one at a time, via an iterator). The application program then operates on each parse tree to do a translation, generate machine code, invoke an interpreter, or similar functions.
You can use LPS to parse program source files, data files, and natural language text. Any grammar that can be expressed in BNF, even ambiguous ones, can be given to LPS. These include (but are not limited to) LALR(k), LL(k), and LR(k).
There are five components to LPS. First is the LexRuleBuilder which takes a text file and makes the lexer’s rules. The second is the ParseRuleBuilder which makes the rules (productions) for the parser. Third is the Lexer (a lexical analyzer), which takes an input file of text to be parsed, builds tokens, and passes these to the fourth component: the Parser. The first three of these components can be replaced by your own objects.
The last component is a test facility. This allows text (or a file) to be input and the resulting parse tree to be displayed. Because the LPS system does not generate a C# program, testing can be rapid and easy. No recompilation is required when your grammar changes.
