The Directory of Open Access Journals is a service that indexes high quality, peer reviewed Open Access research journals, periodicals and their articles' metadata. The Directory aims to be comprehensive and cover all open access academic journals that use an appropriate quality control system (see below for definitions) and is not limited to particular languages or subject areas. The Directory aims to increase the visibility and ease of use of open access academic journals—regardless of size and country of origin—thereby promoting their visibility, usage and impact.
Back to topThe DOAJ Team is on our About page.
Back to topDOAJ is entirely independent and is managed, not owned, by Infrastructure Services for Open Access. DOAJ is not connected to, owned by, or influenced by any other organisation or business. DOAJ does receive sponsorship monies from its sponsor, many of whom are large publishers, but 100% of those monies goes towards the running and technical development of DOAJ.
Back to topOpen Access Journal:
We define open access journals as journals that use a funding model that does not charge readers or their institutions
for access. From the BOAI definition[1] of 'open access' we take the right of users to 'read, download,
copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles...or use them for any other lawful
purpose' as mandatory for a journal to be included in the Directory.
[1] http://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/read
Quality Control:
The journal must exercise peer-review with an editor and an editorial board or editorial review (particularly in the Humanities) carried out by at least two editors.
Research Journal:
Journals that report primary results of research or overviews of research results to a scholarly community.
Periodical:
A serial appearing or intended to appear indefinitely at regular intervals, generally more frequently than annually, each issue of which is numbered or dated consecutively and normally contains separate articles, stories, or other writings.
Back to topAll journals in DOAJ are classified according to the Library of Congress Classification (LCC) system. The classification is made by our editorial team as a journal is accepted for indexing in the database. If a publisher chooses to upload article metadata to us, a journal's articles inherit the same classification. Once a journal has been accepted the classification appears in the 'Subject' facet of search.
Subjects appear in search results for journals and are structured as follows:
You can browse articles and journals by subject classification in our subject browser.
Back to topKeywords are selected by the publisher at the time of applying for the journal to be in DOAJ or at the time of uploading article metadata to us. They are not the same as 'Subject' which is a classification made by the DOAJ Team (see above). Keywords are more arbitrary because there is no control measure.
Back to topYes, it is currently a Google Spreadsheet, updated manually by our editorial team and goes back to the beginning of January 2014.
Back to topThe DOAJ Seal is a mark of certification for open access journals, awarded by DOAJ to journals that achieve a high level of openness, adhere to Best Practice and high publishing standards. To receive the Seal, the journal must comply with the following 7 conditions:
Here is a list of journals that have the Seal.
Back to topThese are journals that have been awarded the DOAJ Seal.
Back to topThe green tick ("The Tick") is displayed against all journals that were accepted into DOAJ after March 2014 when DOAJ launched its new criteria for journals to be accepted into DOAJ. The new criteria require a higher level of compliance to best practices and publishing standards. Journals that do not have The Tick are in the process of reapplying under the new criteria.
Back to topWe don't have a newsletter or email alerts but you can follow our developments in 4 places:
We are also on LinkedIn and Google+.
Back to topOnly publishers and volunteers need accounts. Everyone else is free to use DOAJ without logging in.
If you are a volunteer and cannot access your account, contact your managing editor.
Back to topThere are 4 ways that you can contribute to DOAJ.
Thank you for considering becoming a volunteer!
If you are associated with scholarly communication, academic publishing or libraries, or simply have a keen interest in open access, we are always keen to hear from you. We use volunteers to review the new applications that get sent to us every week. Read more about volunteering here.
Back to topThank you for considering becoming an Associate Editor!
You must fulfill the right criteria and complete an application form. We are always looking for volunteers, particularly those who can speak two or more languages, one of which must be English. After receiving your application, a Managing Editor will be in touch to let you know whether your application has been successful or not.
Back to topThanks for taking the trouble to report the broken link to us. Please send an email to feedback[at]doaj[.]org.
Back to topDOAJ prides itself on being a directory of quality open access journals. We have strict criteria for entry but they haven't always been so rigorous. In March 2014, we launched an extended and detailed application form that raises the bar for entry into DOAJ. At the time of writing (June 2015), 99% of all the journals that were already in DOAJ have yet to reapply using the new form. This means that a portion of the journals in DOAJ, some of which have been in since 2003, may not meet the high standards of the DOAJ of 2015. All journals must reapply by the end of December 2015.
If you find a journal that you believe to be questionable, please send an email to feedback[at]doaj[.]org with the details and we will be very happy to investigate. All information shared with DOAJ is done so in the strictest confidence, is anonymous and is never published.
Back to topIf you publish the journal or are the editor for the journal, fill in an application. Otherwise, contact the journal and ask them to submit an application.
Back to topIt may be that the journal hasn't applied or that its application is still pending. It may be that the journal was removed from DOAJ. Contact us to see if the journal has a pending application.
Back to topYes! We will be launching a full API suite later in 2015. A beta version of our search API is available now. Have a play with it and let us know what you think. We would welcome feedback.
We also have 3 groups that you might like to join for API announcements or discussion:
Sign up to the announcement group or follow us on our news channels to find out more about our full API offering, and release dates.
Back to topThe code used to generate the DOAJ web site is open source, as are the various pieces of software used for the different features. The site or "work" is licensed under a CC-BY-SA license and those license terms apply.
Back to topUnder the hood, DOAJ is built in JSON and is hosted on open source software in GitHub.
Back to topYou can use the quick search box on our home page or start with the Advanced Search.
You may refine your search results by using the facets in the panel on the left, or by sorting and filtering using the tools at the top of the search results.
You can choose to search on any of the following fields:
If you write more than one word in your search query it will be treated as a phrase. To search on full article titles, use " " around the title, e.g. "Is social, cultural and recreational participation a luxury for people living in poverty? An analysis of policy intentions and measures"
The search results in DOAJ contain the following fields:
Journal Title
The title of the journal. If there is a green tick next to it then the journal was accepted using the new criteria.
ISSN(s)
Either the ISSN for the print version of the journal OR the ISSN for the electronic version of the journal OR BOTH.
URL
The URL of the journal's home page.
Peer review
The type of peer review used by the journal.
Subject
The Library of Congress Classification that has been assigned to the journal by DOAJ.
Date added to DOAJ
Journal license
The type of license that the publisher assigns to the journal. This may be a Creative Commons license, or an equivalent. Some publishers have different types of licenses for different articles. We list the most restrictive license only.
The Tick
Only displays when the journal qualifies.
DOAJ Seal
Only displays when the journal qualifies.
Article Processing Charges (APCs)
APCs with the amount and currency. Only displays if the journal charges APCs.
You can either use our subject browser or do a more detailed, manual browse from the Advanced Search page and then filtering with the Subject facet.
Back to topYou can only browse issues and tables of contents for those journals where publishers have uploaded article metadata to us. Click on the large blue, hyperlinked journal title in search results to access them. If you know the journal's ISSN, you can craft the URL for the ToCs yourself. The URL always starts https://doaj.org/toc/ and is then followed by the ISSN number with hyphen, for example: https://doaj.org/toc/2332-7308.
Back to topGo to this search for journals and expand the 'Journal License' facet in the left hand panel. The number of journals per license is in brackets next to each license type.
Back to topThe current version of DOAJ allows publishers to supply license information at the JOURNAL level. Because some journals have different licenses from one article to another, we ask publishers to supply only the most restrictive license. We are working to give greater granularity to license information.
Back to topIn March 2014, DOAJ started to implemented its new criteria for journals being accepted into the directory. All journals accepted after this date display a green tick symbol: appears next to the journal title in search results; and on a journal's Table of Contents page.
Back to topWe have received reports that DOAJ does not work correctly for some of our users in China. We suspect that this is because DOAJ uses Google's Javascript hosting service and Google is blocked in some places in China. We are working to resolve this issue by eventually moving our Javascript service away from Google. We thank our Chinese colleagues for their patience while we resolve this. If you are having trouble using DOAJ from China, send email to feedback[at]doaj[.]org with the details of your query. We might be able to retrieve the information for you and send it to you in another format.
Back to topIf you disable all Javascript, it will not be possible to search the DOAJ. If you can switch off certain components and allow others, then you can continue to use DOAJ. Search will not work with Javascript switched off completely because some of the code that is required is served by Google's Javascript library hosting so if disallowed, search will fail. Other Javascript components are 'Addthis' which is our share feature that allows people to share items from within our site. Disabling this will simply disable the feature. Another component is Bootstrap (http://getbootstrap.com/) which is the framework used to build the DOAJ website. This contains some Javascript for some of its features. Bootstrap was originally created by Twitter and made publicly available. We're not aware of any data collected by Twitter as part of its integration into the DOAJ site.
Back to topYes, go to the Advanced Search page and select 'Journals' from the 'Journals vs. Articles' facet. Then expand the 'Country of publisher' facet to show all journals published by country. By default the list is sorted by country with the most journals at the top, in descending order.To see more than 10 countries in the facet, change the number at the top of the facet from '10' to a greater number.
Back to topThis may be because we have not indexed any journals in that subject area yet. Applications for journals in under-represented areas, or areas that are not represented at all, are always welcome. Please submit an application.
Alternatively, it may be that the specific subject area you are looking for is not represented in the LCC list that we use. Try using a related search term instead.
Back to topWe have an ATOM feed. The feed contains information on journals added in the last 30 days and includes the latest 100 items.

Back to topThe DOAJ service supports the OAI protocol for metadata harvesting (OAI-PMH). Thus, any OAI compatible service can obtain records from DOAJ. The OAI data is always up to date. OAI is well-established and easy to use. The base URL is: http://www.doaj.org/oai. You can add most OAI verbs and other commands directly on to that. Read a full description of this service here. Our current OAI offering is standardised around Dublin Core. We expanded the granularity of the metadata in mid-2015.
A beta version of our search API is available now.
You can also Download a list of journals in CSV (comma-separated) format which can then be imported into Excel or any equivalent analysis tool. The CSV file is updated every 30 minutes. To retrieve the data:
Please be aware that much of the information in the CSV file is only present for journals with a green Tick next to them.
If you wish to crawl DOAJ, you may do so as long as you follow general guidelines for crawling good behaviour. If your crawler hits our servers too often, or your crawler starts to affect DOAJ's performance in any way, then your access will be restricted or even blocked.
Finally, you can connect up to our ATOM feed of new journals added which is updated every time new journals are added to the database. You can integrate the feed into your browser or straight into a web site.
If you have any questions about how to collect and use DOAJ's metadata, do not hesitate to send email: feedback[at]doaj[.]org.
Back to topArticle level metadata can be harvested using the OAI protocol. Read a full description of this service here.
Back to topYes. The simplest way is to download the CSV file but if you are an advanced user you can collect the JSON data.
Back to topYes. OAI, Open Archives Initiative, supplies a common framework to web communities that allows them to gain access to content in a standard manner by means of metadata harvesting. Read the details of our OAI feature.
Yes. We reinstated our OpenURL service in April 2015.
The data in DOAJ is licensed to you under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC BY-SA). The essence of this license is explained at the creative commons web site. (You may also be interested in the fine print.) The rights of the site-generated metadata in the Atom feed are listed in the feed.
Back to topYes, read more about Self-Archiving and Open Archives in the Southampton Self-Archiving FAQ. You can also consult the Directory of Open Access Repositories and the Directory of Open Access Book.
Back to topYou can find this information in two ways:
DOAJ prefers to use the term 'questionable' instead of predatory. We do not believe in black lists and we do not discuss details of individual publishers or journals, with the public, whether they are in DOAJ or not. We will provide advice, when asked, on improvements a journal can make to meet our own high standards.
We believe that, when confronted with a possible questionable journal, it is our duty to review it as objectively as possible. That is why every single application is reviewed by 4 different individuals. Difficult cases are discussed at team meetings. In general, we communicate extensively with applicants to pin down the facts of their application and be certain of the all-important details. We operate under a disclaimer that allows us to remove journals from DOAJ without warning.
It is important to remember that questionable publishing practices are not restricted to open access publishing alone but, sadly, are seen throughout academic publishing.
If you believe that you have found a questionable journal in DOAJ, please contact us: feedback[at]doaj[.]org. All information shared with DOAJ is done so in the strictest confidence, is anonymous and is never published.

At the request of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), the European Union has been supporting the implementation of the Philippine Clean Air Act through the EU-funded SWITCH-Asia programme. The EU provided technical assistance and expertise to support the generation of real-time data on air quality for the Metro Manila airshed, by developing methodologies, real-time data transmission approaches and software. EU Ambassador Franz Jessen said: "The EU is proud to be supporting the Philippines on the implementation of the Clean Air Act. Despite continued efforts to reduce emissions of harmful air pollutants, air pollution remains a worldwide concern. Improving air quality while keeping the climate hospitable is a complex process which requires a thorough understanding of what is causing air pollution and climate change, what can be done to tackle both, and a prioritisation of measures to preserve a life-friendly atmosphere everywhere on Earth." Through this collaboration between the EU and the DENR, real-time data on the Air Quality Index (AQI) for Metro Manila is available. The provision of real-time Air Quality Index Values (AQI) for criteria pollutants will enable public authorities to monitor air quality, to propose actions to protect public health at different AQI levels and to formulate effective air quality management strategies. The air quality data is available to the public at the following link: www.airqualitymanila.com . Background on the programme The policy support component of the SWITCH-Asia programme in the Philippines is a technical assistance worth 3.5 million euros to the Government of the Philippines that is aligned with the Philippine Development Plan 2011-2016 and 2017-2022. It supports the Government in strengthening policy initiatives in the following areas: Support to the Department of Energy (DoE) on energy efficiency; Support to the Government Procurement Policy Board Technical Support Office (GPPB-TSO) and to the Department of Budget Management Procurement Service (DBM-PS) on green public procurement; Support to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) on environmental education and on the implementation of the Clean Air Act. A unique element of the programme in the Philippines is an approach that uses local socio-cultural values to drive sustainable practices among different stakeholders. The values of Bayanihan, Pagtitipid, Malasakit that are close to the heart of Filipinos have been conceptualized as the spirit of ‘Luntiang Puso’ to create awareness on sustainable development. Operating in 18 Asian developing countries with overall funding of more than 300 million euros (2007-2020), SWITH-Asia is the EU's programme focusing on sustainable consumption and production as an approach to development. The programme promotes economic prosperity and poverty reduction in Asia by encouraging a sustainable approach to growth with positive environmental and social impacts.

See what other customers have to say about out business
This is 100% the best nail salon I've been to. Their staff is really friendly even when I asked for a custom design. They managed to do it perfectly and the nail is still there after a few weeks. Great service!
I really love how they do their pedicures, especially Tina! The way she massages made me feel really relaxed. One of the best places to go if you want to relax and get your nails painted at the same time.
Looking at the outside I felt kind of intimidated with how everything is so fancy and modern. My son had to convince me to go inside. When I finally got inside however, I felt so welcomed.

Why blame us when police responsible for permit ruling for walkabouts? EC asks Opposition
by BY SHAZWAN MUSTAFA KAMALKUALA LUMPUR, Nov 12 — The Opposition had acted in bad faith by blaming the Election Commission for the police’s new ruling requiring permits for walkabouts and door-to-door campaigning for the Tanjung Piai by-election, Datuk Azhar Harun said today.
The EC chairman said he was surprised that “senior politicians” lacked the understanding of the basic legal framework concerning elections.
“The requirement for police permit for all ceramah is stated in the law. It is not within the jurisdiction of the SPR to issue permits or to impose requirements for permits. It is the police’s jurisdiction and power.
“In the case of Tg Piai, the police has decided to impose a new requirement for permits even for walkabouts and house to house visits. The SPR has nothing to do with that requirement and is not able to impose its will on the police,” he said in a statement.
Azhar said that he hoped that politicians do not make baseless allegations against the EC, and that they should check their facts before commenting on an issue.
This comes after the Opposition said today it may take legal action against the EC over the ruling for political parties to obtain police permit for election walkabouts.


48 reasons why marrying a Scouser will be your best decision yet
After reading this you may be adding an engagement ring to your Christmas wish list
by Catherine MurphyWe all know it - Scousers are the best - but what can you expect when you marry one?
We're generous, we've got great dress sense, we're loyal and we're a handsome bunch. Do you need any more reasons to make a Merseysider your partner of life?
Earlier this year the ECHO published 48 reasons why you should definitely marry a Scouser.
And now, with Christmas fast approaching - the perfect time for a proposal - we thought it would be the ideal moment to take a look at all those reasons again.
1. You'll always be guaranteed a laugh
After all, you just can't beat the Scouse sense of humour, no matter how harsh it may seem at times.
2. Because everyone knows people from Liverpool are the funniest
It's true, trust us.
3. You get the chance to learn another language
We could fill a whole dictionary of words which are either completely unique to Liverpool or have a totally different meaning here in the city.
4. As well as realising the importance of your wheelie bin
We're not sure anywhere else in the UK you'd find people taking a sense of pride in the colour of their wheelie bin.
Got a purple one? Then you'll be classed as a true scouser.
5. You're always guaranteed a roast dinner
It just would not be a Sunday without one.
6. Or a good pan of Scouse
It's a speciality here in Liverpool, and it just what you need on a cold day. Especially with crusty bread!
7. You'll always be kept on your toes
At least your life will never be boring married to one.
8. You'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to 'date nights'
The city is filled with the perfect venues for anyone looking to organise a date. Whether it be a posh meal, a 'proper' pub, or a round of crazy golf - the possibilities are practically endless.
9. Or 'date days' for that matter
Even a walk around one of the city's parks would be an ideal date, on a sunny day Liverpool has plenty of beer gardens and rooftop bars you can visit to take in the views.
10. You'll never be short of conversation
We're chatterboxes and always have plenty of stories to tell.
11. Although you'll probably struggle to get a word in edge ways
We love to talk, but at least we're honest about it.
12. You'll be safe in the knowledge your partner will always be the best dressed
This is one of the things the city is known for. Scouse men and women are always the best dressed, you can always spot Scousers in a crowd.
You only need to look at pictures from Aintree's Grand National to see what we mean.
13. And you'll learn to love football and the importance of being either a red or blue
Scouse men in Liverpool always have football in common. And the only thing more awkward than someone who says they don't like football is someone who says they don't support Liverpool or Everton. Just pick one.
14. Scousers are always the most generous, especially at the bar
This is one we notice time and time again.
When it comes to getting a round in it is almost always guaranteed it'll be a Scouser offering.
15. They'll make holiday mates every time you go away together
There is something exciting about being thousands of miles away from the city and hearing another Scouse accent. You've just got to stop and chat.
16. And, you'll get the chance to live in the best city in the world
We'll leave this one here.
17. Meaning you wake up to the best views, like this ...
18. Or this ...
19. You won't need to worry about the in-laws because you'll practically be considered family before you're married anyway
A Scouser's family is a big deal
20. Because guaranteed even on the first date they'll tell you about their family members as if you already know who they are
"And then our Tracey did this..." It doesn't matter that you don't know who Tracey actually is.
21. You'll learn how different Scousers are compared to everyone else
We're a breed apart. Scouse not English.
22. And realise the majority of what they say is sarcastic
It may take a while to get used to, but almost everything we say is sarcastic. It's rare that we are ever serious so you'll need to learn not to be easily offended.
23. But also how straight talking they really are (you'll always know where you stand)
If a Scouser has something to say to you, you can bet that they will say it.
24. And, they are loyal
We always have each others backs.
There is also the other type of loyalty, which Scouse girls will know all about.
25. They are annoyingly, always so clever
Ever watched an episode of The Chase with a Scouser? They know the most random stuff.
26. And, then there is how good a Scouse lad looks in grey tracky bottoms?
If you know, you know.
27. Scousers are fiercely defensive of the city
Why wouldn't we be? It is the best city in the world but loads of people don't get that.
28. And you'll come to understand why
Liverpool is known as the friendliest city for a reason.
29.
30. Scouse lads practically have an NVQ level 3 at applying fake tan on your back
Every Scouse lad knows about the Friday night struggle.
31. And, also one for picking the best aftershaves (they always smell fit)
Creed, Chanel Blu etc.
32. You''ll learn everyone in Liverpool knows everyone
This is ridiculously true. Everyone is connected.
33. Scousers will always go over the top when it comes to an occasion
First birthdays, Christmas, Mother's Day give Scousers an occasion and it will be celebrated
34. And, absolutely no expense is spared when it comes to the kids
One-year-olds in £100 tops? Yep.

36. You'll always be made to feel important
A Scouse lad will always be full of compliments.
37. You get a guaranteed free 90 minutes each week when the match is on

Infocom made six main Versions of the Z-machine and several minor variant forms. These are recognisably similar but with labyrinthine differences, like different archaic dialects of the same language. (The archaeological record stops sharply in 1989 when the civilisation in question collapsed.)
Broadly, these fall into two groups: early (Versions 1 to 3) and late (4 to 6). More fully:
Version 1 Early Apple II and TRS-80 Model I games Version 2 Early Apple II and TRS-80 Model I games Version 3 "Standard" series games Version 4 "Plus" series games Version 5 "Advanced" series games, or, as the marketing division would have it, "Solid Gold Interactive Fiction" -- a reference to the colour (though not composition) of the boxes they came in Version 6 Later games with graphics, mouse support, etc.
Infocom called their own interpreters ZIP (versions 1 to 3), EZIP/LZIP (V4), XZIP (V5) and YZIP (V6). They speculated on the possibility of an interpreter capable of running all Versions, but never published one.
The original purpose of the Z-machine was simply to implement as much as possible of the mainframe game "Zork" on the first popular wave of home computers.
(Apparently "zork" was a nonsense word used at MIT for the current uninstalled program in progress, and stuck. Just as this document uses the term "Z-machine" for both the machine and its loaded program (which is also sometimes called the "story file"), so ZIP (Zork Implementation Program) was used to mean either the interpreter or the object code it interpreted. Code was written in ZIL (Zork Implementation Language), which was derived from MDL (informally called "muddle"), a particularly unhelpful form of LISP. It was then compiled by ZILCH to assembly code which was passed to ZAP to make the ZIP.)
The Z-machine as originally constructed was surprisingly similar to that in use today. Version 1 (by Joel Berez and Marc Blank, in Autumn 1979) contained essentially all of the main architecture: the header, the memory divided into three, the variables and stack, the object tree, the dictionary, the instruction format. It used "shift lock" characters (a text compression trick which did not survive, though it was more efficient on long sequences of capital letters or punctuation characters than the technique which replaced it). The first micro interpreters were for the TRS-80 Model I (by Scott Cutler) and the Apple II (by Bruce K. Daniels). (A TRS-80 Model II interpreter was written but never actually shipped.)
Version 2 was only a minor enhancement. Abbreviations (used to help text compression) appeared, but only in one 32-word bank, and the six-digit serial number appeared in the header, though it wasn't always the date in those days: Release 7 of 'Zork II', for instance, is numbered UG3AU5. (Other bizarre serial numbers, such as 000000, appear on fakes or beta-test releases.)
In Version 3, the text encoding alphabets changed again, and the old "shift lock" codes were dropped in favour of expanding the abbreviations bank to 96 entries. The "verify" opcode and checksums appeared; and a new opcode to reprint the status line at the top of the screen was introduced. (Previously, this had been updated only when input was taken from the keyboard.) The earliest Version 3 releases ('Deadline', then reissues of 'Zork I' and 'II') were in March and April 1982; the last (the 'Minizork', a cassette-based Commodore-64 sample of 'Zork') was in November 1987.
The idea of widespread portability finally came of age as (between 1982 and 1985) interpreters were developed for the Atari 400/800, CP/M, the IBM PC, the TRS-80 Model III, the NEC APC, the DEC Rainbow, the Commodore 64, the TI Professional, the DECmate, the Tandy-2000, the Kaypro II, the Osborne 1, MS-DOS, the TI 99/4a, the Apple Macintosh, the Epson QX-10, the Apricot, the Atari ST and the Amiga. Infocom's middle period coincided with the bubble in home computers, before the market collapsed to its present apparently stable state (in which IBM and Apple share almost the entire market), and the Z-machine's portability gave Infocom a unique advantage over its competitors. Also, it was an expertly marketed quality brand at a time when standards of workmanship were very variable; and text-only games did not seem so dull at a time when graphics were on the whole crude and slow. These factors combined to give Infocom considerable (though never enormous) commercial success.
By 1982, then, the Z-machine had stabilised to a clean design which was to remain in use for six years. It was very portable, contained everything reasonably necessary and most of its complications were badly-needed space optimisations. (Although Version 3 can fit 128K of story file, the practical limit in 1982-4 was about 110K, that being the typical disc capacity on target machines.) The ZAP assembler was cleverly written to exploit these optimisations, though the Zilch compiler's code generator was much less efficient. (Interestingly, Infocom did not develop any generic central library, and Infocom's authors worked fairly independently of each other: each new game would inherit a small core of code from a previous one, but this would make up only about 10K of code (about a third of the size of the Inform library) and would end up being hacked about to suit the new game. Without a central library, Infocom games waste a fair amount of space in duplicating code for routine operations many times over. For this reason, Inform games tend to squash appreciably more design into the format.)
"Verify" and checksum data were quickly introduced. However, the first serious variant on Version 3 was made in 1984 when a primitive form of screen-splitting was invented to give 'Seastalker' a sonar display. This design (perhaps accidentally) became the foundation for the graphics systems of later versions.
Much later (in 1987) sound effects were added to Version 3 for 'The Lurking Horror', though by that time it was really a Version 5 feature being passed down to the old model (and only to the Amiga interpreter in any case). ('TLH' is contemporaneous with 'Sherlock' (in Version 5), the only other game to actually use the sound effects features.)
During 1983-5, Infocom poured resources into an ambitious pet project of its founders: 'Cornerstone', a database which used some of the same portable virtual machine ideas as the Z-machine. The business market, however, was not nearly as diverse as the home computer market: 'Cornerstone' probably was the best database available on the Atari ST, but it made no impression on the IBM PC market. The result was a commercial failure which compounded the company's over-expansion problems (driving it into a merger with Activision), though it certainly did not destroy Infocom's viability.
By 1985, Infocom had begun to write interpreters in C for the sake of portability (previously, a different assembly-language program had to be maintained for every model of computer). The main motivation to keep the format stable was therefore largely removed: it became possible to upgrade the Z-machine for every new game, if need be.
There were two basic pressures for change. One was that home computers were larger, and several fundamental restrictions (the game size being only 128K, the number of objects only 255, the attributes only 32, the properties only 31) were beginning to bite. The other was the drive for more gimmicks - character graphics, flashier status lines, sound effects, different typefaces, and so on. The former led to logical, easy to understand structural changes in the machine (designed by Marc Blank). The latter, in contrast, made a mess of the system of opcodes (designed by committee).
More does not mean better (halving the price of paper does not double the quality of the novel). The relieving of size restrictions only increased design time -- or endangered the quality of the designs being produced. The Version 3 games have a spare, concise literary style which is absent from the later games. (But Inform authors have certainly found Version 3 slightly too small for comfort, and it's useful to be able to spill over its boundaries.)
In August the first Version 4 game ('A Mind Forever Voyaging') reached production. Opinions vary as to whether it was brilliant or awful, but it was certainly a departure (and could not have been written under Version 3). In retrospect there is no doubt about 'Trinity', now generally considered the finest game written: it had previously been shelved as too ambitious for the Version 3 format. Still, most of the new 1985/6 games remained in Version 3: there were still plenty of 8-bit home computers around which were too small for Version 4 games. Despite critical acclaim, the new games consequently did not sell as well. (Brian Moriarty commented that 'Trinity' "sold tolerably well. Better than we'd hoped." But his previous game, the more modest 'Wishbringer', had sold rather better.)
Version 5 games began to appear in September 1987 with 'Beyond Zork' and 'Border Zone'. Both of these games needed new features -- character graphics run wild in the case of the former, and real-time keyboard interaction in the latter. The number of opcodes grew ever faster as a result.
Although five old games were re-released in Version 5 editions (with an in-game hints system added, and benefiting from 9-letter word dictionaries, but otherwise as written), the direction was all too clearly away from the old text game into graphics: 'Beyond Zork' can look like a parody of an early mainframe maze game, for instance. Version 6 completed the process during something of a hiatus in 1988, after which the last few increasingly-unrecognisable Infocom games appeared: 'Zork Zero', 'Shogun', 'Journey' and 'Arthur'.
It would be wrong, though, to suggest that Infocom regarded text and graphics as incompatible opposites. Infocom had never been puritanically opposed to graphics --
We have nothing against graphics per se. However, given the quality of graphics currently available on home computers, we would rather use that disk space for additional puzzles and richer descriptions.
The New Zork Times (Spring 1984)
(and, after all, the same author wrote both 'Trinity' and 'Beyond Zork'). Although the old Infocom parser was considered to have passed its sell-by date, Version 6 did not drop textual input in favour of some inane point-and-click interface. Instead, an entirely new parser was devised from scratch ("using the theory of computational linguistics", according to a puff by Stu Galley: broadly an LALR(1) parser).
Infocom gradually ceased to exist during 1987-9 as its financial problems grew. But its products were increasingly regarded as anachronistic and most of its staff had left since the middle years: if Infocom had not finally been wound up, whether it would have continued to release text games of the classical style is arguable.
Two new formats, versions 7 and 8, have recently been devised to cope with large Inform games.

Gov't pushing for limestone production facility
THE Government has heightened discussions with private sector interests to develop a limestone production facility to boost export and provide services to refineries.
Minister of Transport and Mining Robert Montague, who made the disclosure at a JAMPRO-organised Limestone Opportunities Network Forum, held Tuesday at Jamaica Pegasus hotel in New Kingston, said the development is to “ensure the viability” of the sector.
“Lime is one of the critical components in the refining process; a little is produced locally, and most of that is exported,” the minister told the forum.
He pointed out that Jamaica has “an abundance” of limestone, and the deliberations with the private sector should result in a fortified minerals industry.
Montague noted that Jamaica is a “world leader” in the industry, with the country producing material valued over $5.6 billion in 2018, and export earnings of US$5 million.
“Jamaica's minerals industry has several strengths, which afford it the ability to attract investments, provide employment and create wealth. In addition, the sector represents a critical component in the country's development, and Jamaica is an island that is gifted with excellent mineral resources,” the minister said.
He told the gathering that the mining and quarrying sector is a major contributor to the economic growth and development of Jamaica, particularly in the area of foreign exchange earnings.
The minister lauded JAMPRO and other stakeholders for promoting and emphasising the “viability and importance of this industry”.
Global trends have indicated that value-added limestone has very strong income-generating potential, and as a result, JAMPRO hosted the forum to provide investors and manufacturers with information on the many opportunities that exist for Jamaican limestone, which has worldwide recognition for its purity.

To ease development MGPU includes a sample framework, defined in util/mgpucontext.h. At the start of your program create a CudaContext
object. This encapsulates an event, a timer, a stream, and an allocator. Allocations made through this context are recycled after being freed, reducing calls to cudaMalloc
.
ContextPtr CreateCudaDevice(int ordinal); ContextPtr CreateCudaDevice(int argc, char** argv, bool printInfo = false); ContextPtr CreateCudaDeviceStream(int ordinal); ContextPtr CreateCudaDeviceStream(int argc, char** argv, bool printInfo = false);
Call CreateCudaDevice
to create a context on the default stream or CreateCudaDeviceStream
to create a context on the new stream. The (argc, argv) overloads parse the command-line arguments for a device ordinal. You can pass true for printInfo
to print device attributes:
int main(int argc, char** argv) { ContextPtr context = CreateCudaDevice(argc, argv, true); return 0; }

MGPU context and device objects are managed with the reference-counting pointer types ContextPtr
and DevicePtr
. MGPU-allocated memory is reference counted with intrusive_ptr< CudaDeviceMem<type> >
which is bound to the MGPU_MEM(type)
macro for ease of use.

CudaContext::Malloc
allocates memory from its caching allocator. The class supports a variety of methods to fill device memory with data to accelerate testing and debugging. FillAscending
, GenRandom
, and SortRandom
are demonstrated above. PrintArray
prints CudaDeviceMem
arrays to the console using printf-style format specifiers.
When MGPU_MEM
-wrapped objects fall out of scope, the underlying device memory is inserted into a weighted least-recently-used cache. Subsequent queries check the pool and reuse allocations of a similar size before calling cudaMalloc
. Once a program gets hot, the client can make small requests from CudaContext
with high confidence that the call will return immediately.
Users can opt-out of the default caching allocator by deriving CudaAlloc
and providing their own implementation, or simply by using CudaAllocSimple
, which calls cudaFree
immediately on device memory falling out of scope.
class CudaAlloc : public CudaBase { public: virtual cudaError_t Malloc(size_t size, void** p) = 0; virtual bool Free(void* p) = 0; virtual ~CudaAlloc() { } const CudaDevice& Device() const { return *_device; } CudaDevice& Device() { return *_device; } protected: CudaAlloc(CudaDevice* device) : _device(device) { } DevicePtr _device; };
CudaAlloc
is an interface that defines two abstract methods for users to implement: Malloc
allocates size
bytes and returns the pointer in p
. Free
releases memory allocated by Malloc
.
int main(int argc, char** argv) { ContextPtr context = CreateCudaDevice(argc, argv, true); AllocPtr standardAlloc(new CudaAllocSimple(&context->Device())); context->SetAllocator(standardAlloc);
Instantiate your allocator and associate it with the device context with CudaContext::SetAllocator
. The provided caching allocator is not optimal for all applications; use the simple allocator to get back to a baseline.
int main(int argc, char** argv) { ContextPtr context = CreateCudaDevice(argc, argv, true); // Cast CudaAlloc* to CudaAllocBuckets* CudaAllocBuckets* buckets = dynamic_cast<CudaAllocBuckets*> (context->GetAllocator()); // Set the capacity of the LRU cache to 500MB. buckets->SetCapacity(500000000);
You can set the capacity of the LRU cache dynamically. CudaContext::GetAllocator
returns a CudaContext*
pointer to the currently-selected allocator. Because we know it's a caching allocator, we use RTTI's dynamic_cast
to retrieve a CudaAllocBuckets*
pointer. We call SetCapacity
with a request of 500MB to set the cache size. If the size of an allocation request plus the size of items allocated in the cache exceeds 500MB, the caching allocator frees the least-recently-used requests to make space for the new memory.
include/kernels/bulkremove.cuh
KernelBulkRemove<Tuning><<<numBlocks, launch.x, 0, context.Stream()>>>( source_global, sourceCount, indices_global, indicesCount, partitionsDevice->get(), dest_global);
The context object attempts to support CUDA streams in as non-obtrusive a manner as possible. All MGPU host functions take a CudaContext
object by reference and pass the stream handle to the launch chevrons. This enqueues the kernel
launch into the stream that attached to the context.
Some MGPU functions—namely reduce, join, and some variants of scan and vectorized sorted search—use cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost
to move kernel outputs into host memory. This is a synchronizing function; it will cause the thread to wait on the transfer, preventing it from queueing launches on other streams. If this
creates scheduling inefficiences, the programmer can split apart the host function, use cudaMemcpyAsync
to asynchronously move data into CPU-pinned memory, and overlap scheduling of operations on other threads. This is an invasive and application-specific way to program, so it is not directly support by the MGPU library.
MGPU functions are aggressively register-blocked. Register blocking amortizes per-CTA and per-thread costs by increasing the number of items processed per thread. To improve clarity and reduce errors, common routines for moving portions of data between memory spaces (global memory, shared memory, and register) have been factored into functions in the include/device/loadstore.cuh header.
The common template argument VT is the kernel's grain size; it specifies the number of values processed per thread. The argument NT is the number of threads in the CTA.
Most of these functions operate in strided order, in which elements are assigned to threads according to NT * i + tid, where i is the index of the element in the register and tid is the thread ID. Data should be loaded and stored in strided order, as this organizes warp transfers into cache lines, which maximizes data throughput.
Many MGPU algorithms work with data in thread order, in which elements are assigned to threads according to VT * tid + i. Each thread has access to VT consecutive elements which makes performing sequential operations like scan and merge very easy. However data should not be loaded or stored to global memory in thread order, as warp transfers would touch VT different cache lines, wasting memory bandwidth.
By choosing an odd number for VT we avoid bank conflicts that would otherwise be incurred when re-ordering data between strided and thread orders. Within a warp, all banks (VT * tid + i) % 32 are accessed exactly once for each step i when VT is odd. If VT is a power-of-two, you can expect VT-way conflicts at each step.
Load/store function prototypes are found in mgpudevice.cuh. Most functions have names matching the pattern Device
[Source]To
[Dest]:
// For 0 <= i < VT: // index = NT * i + tid; // if(index < count) reg[i] = data[index]; // Synchronize after load. template<int NT, int VT, typename InputIt, typename T> MGPU_DEVICE void DeviceSharedToReg(int count, InputIt data, int tid, T* reg, bool sync = true);
Functions of this form are parameterized over NT and VT arguments—these are typically communicated to the kernel using the LaunchBox mechanism. The first argument is the count of items to move across the entire CTA. If NT * VT == count, an optimized implementation may be used which eliminates per-item predication to reduce latency and promote parallelism. The second argument is the source data, and its
memory space should match the [Source] part of the function name. The third argument is the thread ID. The fourth argument is the destination data and its
memory space should match the [Dest] part of the function name. The final argument is used to hit a __syncthreads
after the operation. Data movement functions with
Shared in the name synchronize by default; other functions do not.
Data can be loaded from shared memory into registers in thread order with DeviceSharedToThread
.
Data can be stored to shared from registers in thread order with DeviceThreadToShared
. A common practice is to:
Cooperatively load data into register in strided order and store to shared memory with DeviceGlobalToShared
.
Read out values in thread order into register with DeviceSharedToThread
.
Operate on data that is now sequentially ordered by thread. Scan works in this manner.
Store results from register in thread order into shared memory with DeviceThreadToShared
.
Cooperatively load data from shared memory into register in strided order and store to global memory with DeviceSharedToGlobal
.
Regimented application of these utility functions to move data between global memory, shared memory, and register helps highlight the novel aspects of the kernel (the stuff in step 3).


Hi,
Has anyone used one of these:
http://shop.openenergymonitor.com/rfm12pi-v2-pre-assembled-raspberry-pi-...
to receive data from one of these:
http://www.maplin.co.uk/n96fy-and-n96gy-replacement-wireless-weather-sta...
I've been trying to build something to connect to my pi, there are several discussion on the rapbery pi forums about this and I based my build on instructions found here http://www.susa.net/wordpress/2012/08/raspberry-pi-reading-wh1081-weathe... (which unfortunately seems to be down right now). I did make this work briefly, unfortunately my soldering skills are not good and it broke.
I've been looking for a ready made replacement and the rfm12pi looks like the kind of thing I need though there is some extra hardware there. Can it run with a normal Raspbian distro? How does it present itself to the pi?
Any help appreciated - my initial search of these forum didn't find anything but please post links if you know of any.
Thanks! Rob.
Re: RFM12Pi V2 433mhz and weather stations
The best way to search here is to throw this at Google:
"weather station site:http://openenergymonitor.org"
This thread http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/1906 has some links that might help you, though I haven't seen anything from anybody reporting success (that's not to say it hasn't been done of course), and it sounds as if you've got further than most.
Without knowing what you had working (albeit only for a short time), there's not a lot more I can say.
Re: RFM12Pi V2 433mhz and weather stations
The rfm12pi presents itself to the pi as a serial interface. In order to receive the data from the weather station you would need to modify the rfm12pi sketch to receive the specific ook protocol the transmitter is using (two different protocols depending on how new the sensors are)
If you want a ready made solution you would be better off connecting a bare rfm12 module (or even better a rfm01) to the pi's spi interface and then install this software: https://github.com/ToninoTarsi/swpi
It's a complete(even more than you need) weather station logging package, that can talk with the rfm modules through an external executable and gather the sensor data, and it has an emoncms input plugin (written by me )
If you don't need emoncms logging the software will still give you the possibility to generate weather graphs like these: http://blog.mrossi.com/2013/07/open-energy-monitor-and-home-automation.html
If you don't need any of this but the sensor data you can use the included wh1080_rf binary and do whatever you wish with the received data...
The connection scheme between rfm01/12 and the pi was posted at the susa.net page ... but I believe it is what you originally used.
If you feel like you are not sure of your soldering skills, just get a module with pin headers instead of one with the solder pads:
http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/lower-power-rf-modules/7312757/?searchTerm...
I have attached the file for refence, just disregard the barometric pressure sensor connections
Re: RFM12Pi V2 433mhz and weather stations
Thanks for the reply Robert - yes, good tip on the searching.
I had it fully working, I'd modified the code from the susa.net site so it was writing the temperature and humidity data to a mysql database on a remote server. The range wasn't very good so I made a dipole but while soldering that on I strained other parts and a wire pulled off the RFM12 board and took the metal contacts with it.
Second attempt with a new RFM12 resulted in a destroyed RFM12 before it even got to the point of working (now I wish I did electronics at school!).
I have a third one but it's not looking good....trying to put this one onto some veroboard. It would be so much easier if the RFM12 had a 0.1 pitch for the side contacts.
Re: RFM12Pi V2 433mhz and weather stations
Thanks for all that info Matt, I've got a bit of reading to do now....
The link to the module with pins that you posted was the 866mhz one - my weather station is 433mhz. Looking on the RS website I think this is probably the equivalent:
http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/lower-power-rf-modules/7312745/
This does look like it uses a RFM01 though, instead of a 12. The susa.net site indicated that the 01 is much more sensitive to noise than the 12 - do you have any experience of that?
Thanks for the wiring diagram, nicest one I've seen for this function. I do have the barometric sensor as well - luckily it has pins on it so no chance of me melting it/covering it in solder/etc
There is no "feel" or "not sure" about it, I'm absolutely certain I am a danger with a soldering iron.
Re: RFM12Pi V2 433mhz and weather stations
"I'm absolutely certain I am a danger with a soldering iron."
The best advice I can give you there is buy a mixed bag of cheap components and some stripboard, look at one of the many soldering guides and practice. Then when it comes to small stuff like the RFM12B and smaller still like the emonTx, get a big stand-mounted magnifier as well. You also need to make sure your soldering iron is at the correct temperature. Generally, you'll do more damage if it is not hot enough (yes!) because you'll apply the heat for too long. You should be able to solder a single joint on stripboard in about 1 s. The usual reason tracks and pads lift is because the heat was on for too long.
Re: RFM12Pi V2 433mhz and weather stations
@roba: This does look like it uses a RFM01 though, instead of a 12. The susa.net site indicated that the 01 is much more sensitive to noise than the 12 - do you have any experience of that?
I haven't tried with the rfm12, but from what I have read (in Italian) from the guy that integrated the wh1080_rf in the weather logging data my impression was the other way around (also confirmed in the susa.net page) , that is, the rfm01 has more range than the rfm12 .. I have it sitting in a room about 30 meters and two internal and one external wall from the sensors and reception is good, not without interruptions but good (I should get one measurement every minute .. about once a day I don't get one for about 10 minutes). When I tried to move it up one floor (and added one concrete wall to the lot) reception was abysmal

Help your child learn with our free, engaging lessons
Oppia is a digital library of academic lessons that teaches students the skills they'll need to succeed in life, both academically and beyond.
Our guided and interactive lessons empower your child to learn independently. Or, if you prefer to work together, our content allows you to guide their learning even if you aren’t an expert on a given subject.
Oppia is 100% free and does not contain advertisements or monetization. Everything at Oppia is built by a community of professionals and volunteers who believe that a quality education is an essential right. We are always testing and refining our approach to create the best possible learning experience for your child.
Browse our lessons to learn more about what Oppia has to offer. If you want to join our community, offer feedback, or have a say in how our lessons our built, we would welcome your feedback. Time to get busy learning!
Oppia's free, personalized lessons are a great way to support student learning
Every student learns in a unique way at their own pace. As a teacher, even in the best circumstances, it can be difficult to cater to every student's unique needs. Oppia's engaging, story-driven lessons are a great tool to support student learning.
Oppia's personalized feedback and engaging storytelling can assist students who require additional help outside of the classroom. Or, Oppia can be used inside your classroom, allowing every student to work at their own pace and giving you the opportunity to provide additional support to those that need a helping hand.
Our approach to creating lessons has been tested in controlled trials and shown to result in significant learning gains. We have designed our content to be relatable, interesting, and scaffolded in a way that builds on earlier conceptual understanding.
And, best of all, as a volunteer-led non-profit, our lessons are 100% free to use and contain no advertising or monetization strategies.
We welcome you to join our community, support the project by spreading the message to other educators, request lessons needed by your students, or create new lessons for others.
Let's work together to make compelling educational content available to everyone
Oppia is a rapidly-growing, all volunteer non-profit dedicated to making engaging educational lessons available to students from every walk of life.
Oppia’s free and effective digital library of lessons is being built with an emphasis on scalability and accessibility. Our lesson builder allows content creators to provide intelligent, personalized feedback to students based on their responses. This means even large groups of students can receive the attention and support of a private tutor without actually needing close supervision. Lessons are continuously translated into new languages and available on low-bandwidth mobile devices to reach students in underserved communities around the world.
In controlled trials, Oppia has been shown to result in significant learning gains in communities that lack access to effective learning environments. (Learn about one such study here.)
At Oppia, we believe that quality education is a fundamental right. Our mission is to provide every student the tools they need to achieve basic literacy and numeracy while developing a lifelong love for learning. That's why we're building a complete, no-fuss digital classroom capable of teaching thousands and thousands of students at once. It’s no small task, but with the help of partners who share our vision, it's one we are confident can be achieved.
We invite you to contact us to learn more about our organization, inquire about partnerships, or arrange a pilot study.
Help improve access to high-quality education for students around the world
Oppia is a volunteer-led nonprofit, which means that our mission depends entirely on the efforts of people who want to make a difference in the lives of underserved students. Our organization is made up of people from all over the world -- from the United States to India to Cameroon and many places in between -- who work together to improve access to quality educational content.
Not only is volunteering a great way to make a positive impact on the world, it is a great opportunity to learn, to advance your skills, and to work with a dedicated team of fellow volunteers. Committed volunteers are given leadership roles within the organization, which is a great way to get experience in that role.
All sorts of skillsets are needed to make Oppia grow. Visit our volunteer page at OppiaFoundation.org to learn more about joining our team.
