The following software / on-line items are currently available. The projects are divided into two parts: purely recreational things, and research tools. The following tables give a brief overview; the links take you to individual project pages which give much more detail.
| Finances: | My retirement / financial planning program, extremely flexible, can now handle ANY set of conditions. Give it a spin! Entirely web-based; no compilation (or computer skills) neccesary. |
|
Sundials: | Download your own paper sundial, plus other plots! You can custom-design plots for various uses, and set orbital parameters for other planets etc. No astronomy or math skills needed. |
|
Wildflowers: | A huge project, entering a database of some 500+ wildflowers, plus highly flexible search criteria. Still under development, but people are welcome to test it. |
| Web Counters: | A minor programming project -- I got fed up with hugely complicated web counters. This one is easy - compile and use. Nothing to configure. | |
| Weather: | Another minor project -- I want daily updates of past temperature and precipitation conditions. The UW station page makes you wait until the end of the month, and Environment Canada only gives you the last 24 hours. |
| Software Category: | Requirements: | Keyword: | Description and Link:
| Unix / Research | Unix / gcc | Markup
| I have rewritten Ghostview to allow you to markup postscript files
to simplify electronic collaboration. The revised source code (easy to
compile under UNIX/X) is available here.
| Fun / Math | Matlab | Ising
| Ising models are widely used in physics and mathematics.
I was interested in doing some simple tests, however
I was amazed that an Internet search turned up almost no
available programs in Matlab. See
the following page for FAST Matlab code, very short,
easily modified, and heavily vectorized.
| Research / Statistics | Matlab | Wavelets
| Visualization of wavelet statistics and the significance of
inter-coefficient correlations.
Try the demo, available here.
| Research / Statistics | Matlab / gcc | Multiscale
| A class of multiscale estimation algorithms have been developed
for the estimation of large, multi-dimensional,
random fields governed by (normally) spatially smooth prior models.
A variety of packages, customized to
different contexts, are available here.
