About us
We are evolutionary ecologists seeking to explain how organisms adapt to their environments. The overarching question of our research is how do natural selection and inheritance interact to shape phenotypes over time? We study the factors within populations that generate among individual differences in highly conspicuous features of mating systems, life histories, and sexual dimorphisms. These features dynamically interact to determine the transmission of alleles between generations and to govern population demography. Thus, our research addresses fundamental questions in biology regarding how organisms mate, what maintains adaptive genetic variation, and how do populations respond to environmental change.
Our group is committed to creating a successful and positive dynamic in which to further the group research goals with the highest scientific integrity. This involves being patient, careful, and detailed while respecting people’s time, opinions, contributions, and backgrounds. We believe it is our shared responsibility to provide a welcoming space for all people to make scientific and academic advancements, to not tolerate speech or actions that are discriminatory, racist, or offensive, and to recognize our own biases and work to break down these and other barriers to inclusivity and equity in academia.
Would you like to join the group?

FCC releases order approving merger of Sprint, T-Mobile along party lines
The Federal Communications Commission on Tuesday released its order approving T-Mobile US Inc's proposed US$26.5 billion tie-up with Sprint Corp in a vote split along party lines.
WASHINGTON: The Federal Communications Commission on Tuesday released its order approving T-Mobile US Inc's proposed US$26.5 billion tie-up with Sprint Corp in a vote split along party lines.
Chairman Ajit Pai and two Republican commissioners voted to approve the deal while two Democratic commissioners voted against it. The FCC commissioners voted earlier this month but the order was not made public until they could cut confidential information and give commissioners time to draft statements.

The Ace editor is an embeddable javascript editor, frequently used in webapps which evaluate some user-supplied code. It has language-specific modes which help guide the user towards supplying syntacticaly-valid input. These modes are mostly built to provide feedback about lexical consistency (e.g. spelling of keywords) and have piecemeal support for grammatical constraints (does the function name follow the keyword function). This document describes the process for constructing a "Santa" ACE editor mode which provides validating, grammar-based editor feedback.
The "Santa" mode is so-named because
This provides a user with highlighting feedback at the point of error, greatly reducing the searching around that users typically perform in an unfamiliar or complex language.
The Ace editor's syntax highlighting is managed by modes
which are typically split across to files: lib/ace/mode/FOO.js
and lib/ace/mode/FOO_highlight_rules.js
.
These construct a state machine which the editor traverses in response to user input.
Each rule in the state machine has an associated token
which the editor uses to markup the DOM in the HTML editor.
For a token "foo", the markup will include a span with the class "ace-foo".
The state machine maps production names to lists of rules. Each rule maps a lexical pattern to a token and a state transition. During execution ("tokenization" in the ACE API), it primarily uses three rule attributes to capture the lexical pattern, the associated class name, and the next state to go to.
PRODUCTION_NAME: [ { regexp: "PATTERN", token: "TOKEN" || onMatch: function (value, currentState, stack, line) => TOKEN, next: "PRODUCTION_NAME" || next: function (currentState, stack) => PRODUCTION_NAME } ]
For both the onMatch
and next
functions, the this
parameter is the surrounding rule.
line
is the entire line in the editor and value
is the portion matched by the pattern.
currentState
is a production name and the stack is an arbitrary list that the functions may manipulate.
In principle, this is enough to construct an LR(1) parser which shifts tokens matched by the rule patterns and pops the stack to reduce to a computed state. The patterns associated with each rule in a production provide are effectively a lexer. While a lexer like Bison will accept the longest match when more than one pattern could match, the rules in a production must be ordered to accept the preferred pattern. Another difference is that where typical lexers require explicit control from the parser to switch state, the patterns in each state's list of rules creates a novel lexer state.
To build a state machine, you typically extend an existing mode.
If there's no more specific mode, as there probably won't be for modes built from a grammar, you fall back to TextHighlightRules
:
const TextHighlightRules = require("./text_highlight_rules").TextHighlightRules; oop.inherits(ShExCHighlightRules, TextHighlightRules);
this.$rules
is a state machine with at least a start
element:
this.$rules = { start: [ ... e.g. { token: "constant.string", regex: /"/, next: "myString" } ], myString: [ ... ], ... }
The ace code also calls the elements of those arrays rules
so here I will paradoxically refer to this.$rules
as the productions
, i.e. it maps a state name to a rule list.
The productions language used to construct the state machine is more expressive than those navigated during tokenization.
this.normalizeRules()
lightly pre-processes the productions, mapping this richer state machine language to the simple one described above in § Ace state machine.
This affords the author several conveniences when authoring state machines:
start: [ { token: "constant.language", regex: /</, next: "myURL" } [ [ { token: "constant.string", regex: /"/, next: "myString" } ] ] ],will get flattened out into a simple rule list for the current production. This frees up generator functions to return any mixture of rules and arrays rules, so long as the outer production member is an array.
include
member:
{ include: "#comments" }, inject the referenced rules into the current production. The
include
member may also be an array, in which case all of the members will be injected into the current production.
Perversely, this even allows { include: ["foo", ["bar"] ] }
as ES6 permits ({a:1, b:2})[["b"]]
(that evaluates to 2).
.push: ...
and .next: "pop"
directives: These are implemented as .next
function calls to be executed when a rule is matched.
.next
s and .push
s: A rule's .next
can be a produciton name or a list of rules:
{ somethingWithComments: [ { token: "comment", regex: /\/\*/, next: [ { token: "comment", regex: "\\*\\/", next: "somethingWithComments" }, { defaultToken: "comment", caseInsensitive: true } ] } ] }These get turned into what are hopefully fresh production names (e.g.
comment0
) by taking the first string in (.stateName
, .token
, .token[0]
).
If the .token
will give you a conflicting or hard-to-read (for debugging) production name, add a distinctive .stateName
to the containing rule.
{ start: S, end: E, next: [ L ] }
to a gosub: For example:
start: { token : "string", start : '"', end : '"|$', next: [ {token: "constant.language.escape", regex: /\\([tbrf'"n])/}, {token: "invalid", regex: /\\./} ] }is transformed to:
"start": [ { regex: "\"", token : "string.start", next: pushState } // token + ".start" ], "string.start": [ { regex: /\\([tbrf'"n])/, token: "constant.language.escape" } { regex: /\\./, token: "invalid" } { defaultToken: "string" } { regex: ""|$", token: "string.end", next: popState } // token + ".end" ]
.rules
to top-level: If there's a .rules
object, for each (KEY, [MEMBERS])
, append MEMBERS to rules[KEY].
this.createKeywordMapper(rule.keywordMap, rule.defaultToken || "text", rule.caseInsensitive)
on keywordMap
members
Because the Ace engine isn't producing an AST, we don't need to reduce multiple shift states to produce a computed result. For the purposes of the ShEx Santa mode, it was sufficient to augment the state machine generator to include both a gosub and a goto to return to when the nested state popped.
Typical lexers are responsible for tokenizing and skipping whitespace and comments. The Ace parser is different for two reasons:
The ShExC Santa mode follows a convention that all grammar states manifest in top-level productions and all tokens are represented as nested .next
or .push
rules.
This makes it easy to iterate over the productions and prepend comment rules in them.
This must be done before calling this.normalizeRules()
as it will create top-level rules for all nested rules.
A noCommentList
excluded some states from having embedded comment rules:
const noCommentList = ["start", "regex", "regex_character_class"] Object.keys(this.$rules) .filter(name => noCommentList.indexOf(name) === -1) .forEach(name => addComments(this.$rules[name])) this.normalizeRules()
It's tempting to align the highlight_rules state names with productions in your grammar.
Since the tokenizer has start
hard-coded as a start state (and where to go in case of missing production), you must automatically transition to your top grammar state; in the ShExC case, that was shexDoc
:
start: [ { regex: /(?:)/, next: "shexDoc" } ]
Since the testBlockComment
function in highlight_rules_test.js
expects that a block comment introduced in the start
state will return you to start
, your highlight_rules will need to add redunant comments rules to the start state.
For any mode (here, called "foo") lib/ace/mode/foo.js
, the convention is to place its associated test in lib/ace/mode/foo_test.js
.
This files exports an object like:
module.exports = { const EditSession = require("../edit_session").EditSession; const Tokenizer = require("../tokenizer").Tokenizer; const FooMode = require("./foo").Mode; const assert = require("../test/assertions"); some: "internal stuff", my_internal: function (...) { ... }, "test: Some Test Description": function () { ... assert.equal(expected, go) } }
The Ace test runner will run everything in module.exports
that matches /^[>\!]?test/
.
Including this at the bottom allows you to run your test on its own with node --inspect-brk lib/ace/mode/foo_test.js
:
if (typeof module !== "undefined" && module === require.main) { Async.test.testcase(module.exports).exec(); }
Like most language specifications, ShEx includes a suite of positive and negative syntax tests which amply exercise any parser.
Because Ace's state machine doesn't have an explicit accept state, the one can append each test with a symbol only permitted in an outer context.
The getTokens(i)
function used above doesn't report the final production name so we need to determine the production in a somewhat oblique fashion.
Because ShEx has text that can only appear in the accept state, we could add that text to the input array:
const rows = file.data.split(/\n/) .concat(["PREFIX qwer: <>"]) // Make sure we end up in the shexDoc production.
This extra text would be rejected if the state machine were left in any state other than the accept state.
A frequent error is to transition to a non-existent state.
When this happens, the tokenizer flags an error and returns to the start
state.
We can add more detail to this error report, which you'll find in lib/ace/tokenizer.js
in the getLineTokens()
function (line 292 as of July 2019):
if (!state) { this.reportError(startState + "->" + currentState + " on " + match[i+1] + ": state doesn't exist for rule " + i + ":" + JSON.stringify(rule), currentState);
Another frequent issue is simply getting lost wondering what state you're in at some point in the text array. We can leverage the kitchen-sink demo's [Show token info] option (bottom of the left option list) by appending the state information to each token:
this.normalizeRules() // embedStateDebuggingInfo(this.$rules) function embedStateDebuggingInfo (grammar) { Object.values(grammar).forEach( rules => rules.forEach( rule => rule.onMatch = function (matched, currentState, stack) { console.log(this, matched, currentState, stack) return this.token + "\n" + currentState + "\n" + "(" + stack.join("|") + ")\n" + JSON.stringify(rule, null, 2) } ) ) }
This process describes the creation of the ShExC Ace Santa mode and was largely informed by the Ace Syntax Highlighters documentation:
lib/ace/mode/shexc.js
lib/ace/mode/shexc_highlight_rules.js
The custom is for the mode file to reference externally-defined highlight rules:
var ShExCHighlightRules = require("./shexc_highlight_rules").ShExCHighlightRules;
demo/kitchen-sink/docs/shexc.shex
lib/ace/mode/_test/text_shexc.txt
I use the same text in both. This would seem to call out for a symlink but that might be problematic for windows users.
edit lib/ace/ext/modelist.js
lib/ace/mode/shexc_test.js
lib/ace/mode/_test/tokens_shexc.json
:
node lib/ace/mode/_test/highlight_rules_test.js -gen
Every time you fiddle with the example files or the highlight rules, you'll have to re-gen.
ib/ace/mode/shexc_worker.js
lib/ace/mode/shexc_worker_test.js
node lib/ace/test/all.js
, which is made up of:
node lib/ace/mode/shexc_test.js
, manually constructed markup testsnode lib/ace/mode/shexc_worker_test.js
, manually constructed validator testsnode lib/ace/mode/_test/highlight_rules_test.js
, automatically constructed tests which include ones built from the generate operation above.
If you're iterating on this, especially in the debugger, you can note the module number when your module comes up, e.g. "126 testing: shexc", and then run node --inspect-brk lib/ace/mode/_test/highlight_rules_test.js 125
(note n - 1).
The ShExC Santa mode was hand-built by examining LALR(1) state tables to see which inputs were required at which point. It would be fun and useful to create a set of semantic actions in Jison or Antlr to automatically construct the state table automatically. Here's a strawman based on part of the ShExC syntax:
PNAME_NS {PN_PREFIX}? ':' … IRIREF '<' ([^\u0000-\u0020<>\"{}|^`\\] | {UCHAR})* '>' %% {IRIREF} "constant.language"; {PNAME_NS} "constant.library"; %% %start shexDoc shexDoc : … prefixDecl : "PREFIX" { "keyword" } PNAME_NS IRIREF notStartAction : start | shapeExprDecl shapeExprDecl : shapeExprLabel { "shapeExprLabel" } (shapeExpression | "EXTERNAL" { "keyword" } ) shapeExprLabel : iri | blankNode iri : IRIREF | prefixedName
In this strawman, terminals return ace tokens (i.e. CSS classes) and rules that invokes terminals can append tokens. If anyone wants to work with me on this (hint Ger Hobbelt), let me know with an issue. Once that works, we can use it to more efficiently create a Santa mode for SPARQL.
Again, help would be appreciated as I know nothing about require.js.


Rook Jumping Mazes(a.k.a. Number Mazes) |
| Rook Jumping Mazes |
| Introduction |
Rook Jumping Maze: Starting at the circled square in the upper-left corner, find a path to the goal square marked “G”. From each numbered square, one may move that exact number of squares horizontally or vertically in a straight line. How many moves does the shortest path have?
Solution (select to reveal): [13 moves: DRLUDLRULLRDU]
The origin of the Rook Jumping Maze (a.k.a. Number Maze) is unknown, but some
attribute its creation to the great puzzle innovator
Sam Loyd. Loyd's
"Back from the
Klondike" Queen Jumping Maze, which additionally allows diagonal moves,
appeared April 24th, 1898 in the New York Journal and Advertiser. It
also appears on page 106 of the
Cyclopedia of Puzzles, a collection of Loyd's work compiled by his son.
In the fall of 2009, Gettysburg College faculty and students participated in a
Rook Jumping Maze (RJM) design project, experimenting with maze generation and working to develop
measures of RJM quality to aid fully-automatic computer generation of these
mazes. Our results can be seen through the
Rook Jumping Maze of the Day
(also in
3D),
a Rook Jumping Maze Design Considerations paper (presented at the 7th International Conference on Computers and Games (CG2010) in Kanazawa, Japan),
a free iPhone app, and
Rook Jumping Maze
Generation, a set of introductory artificial intelligence programming
projects.

APOCALYPSE NOW REDUX
Reviewed by Harvey Karten Miramax Films Director: Francis Ford Coppola Writer: John Milius, Francis Ford Coppola, loosely based on the novella by Joseph Conrad, "Heart of Darkness" Cast: Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall, Martin Sheen, Frederic Forrest, Albert Hall, Sam Bottoms, Laurence Fishburne, Dennis Hopper, G.D. Spradlin, Harrison Ford
High school history teachers know how important it is to relate the past to the present and, assuming that the youngsters are at least dimly aware of current events, the teen scholars can then relate better to times elapsed. The same can be done with literature. You can associate a past event with one that took place at a different time, thereby giving the reader a better feel for the subject. Something like that was tried most successfully by Francis Ford Coppola when he used Joseph Conrad's 1902 novella "Heart of Darkness" to illuminate his epic 1979 picture "Apocalypse Now." Conrad's story deals with a manager of a trading station in the Belgian Congo, a Mr. Kurtz, who goes to the Congo with high ideals and a self-imposed mission to civilize the natives but is instead converted by them to savagery. Kurtz's conversion to darkness is narrated to the reader by Marlow as an impartial observer who makes the trip to the center of Africa which becomes, symbolically, a journey toward the essential meaning of life. When the manager visits Kurtz, an admirer of the latter tells him that Kurtz had become corrupted by the very natives he had hoped to enlighten. "Instead of his changing them," said the man, "They had debased him into an atavistic savage."
Coppola sees the story of Kurtz as a parable to explain what happened to the Americans during the ill-advised Vietnam War and now, with forty-nine minutes put into the film, minutes not seen before, we become enlightened to four basic changes in the original story which is now called "Apocalypse Now Redux."
The many reviews that have been published and also posted online for the original 1979 "Apocalypse Now" are easily accessible thanks to the miracle of Internet-based, archival storage. There's no need here to re-invent the wheel, to repeat what you can easily find on web sites like imdb.com, www.mrqe.com, and rottentomatoes.com. Suffice it to say that Coppola's is (to be only partly facetious) a road-and-buddy movie more than a conventional war film, featuring a group of American vets traveling up a river on a mission to assassinate a modern Kurtz; a colonel (played with appropriate mysticism by Marlon Brando), with his assassin, Captain Willard (Martin Sheen), learning quite a bit about war and life through the schizophrenic rantings of Kurtz. Coppola's motif is not to show that war is evil (that's, like, duh) or that the Vietnam War was especially profane, but that nothing stinks more than lying. This point is driven home most convincingly by Col. Kurtz as he reads some articles printed in news magazines, particularly "Time," in which the president of the United States, having sent a scout to the 'nam to find out how the Yanks and their Vietnamese allies were doing against the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese troops said that things were smelling better.  asks Kurtz to his captive captain, rhetorically. Seeing is believing. Reading Time magazine, listening the president...forget it.
Four items have been added to the movie, and what is most refreshing about the additions is Coppola's view that the American audience is now mature enough to absorb and delight in the additional footage though it brings the movie up to three hours and sixteen minutes. (Well over three hundred hours were actually shot in the Philippines, with digital editing partly used to wade through all the celluloid in order to go with what best serves the vision of the director, the writers--and the performers, who in the particular instance of the French plantation scene did some improvisation.) We've been told over and over by pessimists and elitists that movies have had to be dumbed down for the modern viewer. Without dismissing this charge as baseless, we can nonetheless say that for the more sophisticated film buffs who could enjoy a war movie that is more surreal than traditional with periods more meditative than combative, this new version deepens the original.
Here are the changes...First is the plantation sequence, which to some might appear to come from another movie. As Willard proceeds up the river into Cambodia on his secret mission to assassinate Kurtz, he suddenly runs into the bizarre sight of a French plantation in the middle of the jungle, apparently unhurt by the enemies of so-called Western imperialism. Clean (Laurence Fishburne) had just been buried, courtesy of the French hosts, and during the long, wine-soaked banquet which was cooked French-style by a Vietnamese chef and served by native Vietnamese, the French get a chance to discuss their views of the war with the more naive Americans. The French, we learn from the head of the family Hubert deMarais (Christian Marquand), have a good reason to stay. France is not their home: Indochina is. But as deMarais heatedly explains in French-accented, perfect English, the "Americans are fighting for nothing." The plantation scene features an unusual seduction by the young French widow Roxanne (Aurore Clement), making one wonder why any part of this vista of what the poet Matthew Arnold called sweetness and light could be omitted.
Change two involves the Playboy playmate sequence in which a group of playmates are choppered in to entertain the boys. This time, Coppola puts back in an arrangement in which the helicopter runs out of fuel and Willard trades a couple of can of fuel for the Playmate of the Year. The scene is metaphorical: these beautiful women are exploited for their surface beauty in much the way that the landscape of Vietnam is raped--and yet in the latter case our presidents had called the action a moral one.
Change three makes up for a time-saving cut in a sequence featuring Marlon Brando, who expounds on greater length about the insanity of war. Perhaps the director originally felt that showing too much Brando (so to speak) would take away from the aura of mystery surrounding him: that allowing him more footage would run the risk of humanizing him too greatly.
 Putting the footage back allows Coppola to contrast the young men, fresh into their adventure and enjoying their kidding around, with the later horror of death and destruction.
It's amusing to see some of the performers as they looked twenty-two years ago. While Martin Sheen seems to have aged the least, Laurence Fishburne comes across a positively adolescent (not surprising since he was only fourteen when the filming began). Harrison Ford is barely recognizable in his twenties and in his brief role comes across lacking the fine lines of character that he had developed over time.
Then as now, this film cannot really be compared with more traditional war films like 'The Longest Day," "The Bridge on the River Kwai," or "Saving Private Ryan." "Apocalypse Now" is at once more mystical, more reflective, more suited to a war that has been blamed for tearing America apart. Contrasts aside, it ranks as one of the most moving of its genre.

Mattia Binotto says Ferrari get "criticized" for team orders and letting them race
by Louis ShawMattia Binotto is struggling to find the balance between letting his drivers race each other and giving them team orders. The Ferrari boss feels that he is criticized no matter what decision the team make.
“When we tried to manage the drivers this season we have been criticized [for] doing it,” he said to RaceFans. “And when they are free to fight we may be criticized because of ‘free to fight’.
“I think there is always a reason for what we are deciding to do and today it was right to let them race, certainly, because we [already] secured the second place in the constructor's championship.”
Binotto believes that the team needs to “clarify within the team what’s silly and what’s not, what are the limits of the actions.”
“When you’ve got a crash, something was wrong. No doubt. But when you’re free to fight, you’re free to fight and that’s a driving matter: how much you can take as a risk. But certainly here today the risk was not necessary.”
The season can't end sooner for Ferrari and they will hope to put this season behind them and sort out the issue within the team in order to start from fresh in 2020.

What the papers say – November 18
The front pages are dominated by a sit-down media interview given by the Queen’s second son on his relationship with a sordid character.
The Duke of York’s interview about his connection to sex criminal Andrew Epstein leads Monday’s papers.
The Times reports the duke is standing by his decision to give the interview to the BBC, Metro calls him the “Duke of Porkies” and The Daily Telegraph says the Queen “did not give blessing” for the media opportunity.
Ex-Royal protection officer Dai Davies has told the Daily Mirror that he was “utterly unconvinced” by Andrew’s denial.
The Guardian said lawyers representing 10 of Epstein’s victims had branded Andrew’s account “implausible” and demanded he speak with the FBI, a claim echoed by the i newspaper.
Andrew attended church with the Queen on the morning following his interview and told her it “was a great success”, according to The Sun.
But the Daily Mail reports the duke has said he has regrets over the interview and has sympathy for Epstein’s victims.
The Daily Express says Prime Minister Boris Johnson will “trigger a Brexit boom” via tax cuts, while The Independent reports on a poll which says the climate is “more important than economy to voters”.
Saudia Arabia “has sharply scaled back” its initial public offering of state oil company Aramco after a “lukewarm” response from investors, the Financial Times reports.

積體電路的開發與製造產業像盞巨人佇立在人類科技的文明之上；
而我們致力於開發高效、可靠的電子設計自動化演算法，並培育專攻於業的精良人才，
冀使其成為巨人的左膀右臂－－將人類舉向更高更遠的世界。
聽過 EDA（電子設計自動化）嗎？如果你時常關注科技業的新聞，或者你很關心台積電又把摩爾定律的終結推遲了幾年，那你也許常常聽到這個詞。 那什麼是EDA呢？放到 Google Search 上，也許他會問你「你是要查 EDM 嗎？」並且跳出一些 Alan Walker 的歌曲。而在 Wikipedia 中，它對 EDA 的解釋如下：
利用計算機輔助設計（CAD）軟體，來完成超大型積體電路（VLSI）晶片的功能設計、綜合、驗證、物理設計（包括布局、布線、版圖、設計規則檢查等）等流程的設計方式。
這個看似簡單卻涵義廣泛的詞彙並非一夕之間產生的。隨著積體電路製程的發展，從以前一個晶片只包含了屈指可數的電晶體數，到現在動輒上千萬個邏輯閘存在於一個不到指甲大小的晶片當中。 這些晶片製造的複雜程度當然不可同日而語；人類現在若要徒手完成一顆蘋果的處理器而完全不依靠電腦，可能久到連恐龍都可以投胎一次了。於是EDA的產業開始發展了：我們用電腦來輔助積體電路的設計與製造。
簡單來說，我們透過程式語言，開發有效率的演算法，讓人類、甚至電腦都可能要耗時許久才能完成的工作──在可接受的時間內完成。而這些工作，就是積體電路的設計與製造；像是建造一棟摩天大樓，而我們使用 C 語言畫出了設計圖。 所以，若你踏進了EDA領域，也許你可以指著你親朋好友的手機，得意的告訴他：「你的手機的晶片裡，有一段程式碼的變數是我的名字！」並且看看他們欽佩（或是尷尬）的表情。酷吧！
然而 EDA 的範疇何其廣泛，在我們實驗室中，當然也有對 EDA 領域特別擅長的部份！詳情請見 Our interests.
我們深入探討透過程式語言以及演算法改善積體電路實體設計 ( Physical Design ) 各個階段之效率的可能性，舉凡布圖規劃 ( Floorplanning )、布局 ( Placement )、布線 ( Routing ) 等物理設計階段的加速、品質改善。
在晶片設計的後端透過演算法提升積體電路在先進製程下的可製造性 ( Design for Manufacturability )，例如微影製程的最佳化 ( 光學鄰近校正 Optical Proximity Correction ) 或虛擬填充 ( Dummy Fill Insertion )。
隨著人工智慧的風潮蔚起，我們積極研究機器學習 ( Machine Learning )、類神經網路 ( Neural Network ) 等技術應用於解決產業現有問題的可能。
吾為台科電機學士碩士，專長為 EDA Tool操作/C++/機器人、控制應用相關/健身，有興趣或疑問歡迎一同交流。

Hi, I am Yu-Hung. I obtained both my Master and Bachelor degrees from National Taiwan University of Science and Technology. I was a undergraduate intern students in Prof.Fang's lab when I was junior. During my student time, I joined ICCAD programming contest and improved my programming skill. I was also a summer intern at TSMC in 2017. In the second year of my master degree, I was a exchanged student in Texas A&M University in Prof.Jiang Hu's lab. In that period, It was my first time to live in a foreign country for couples months. I was very lucky to meet many people there including American, Chinese and Taiwanese. I got many helps from them. I also traveled to other city in Texas and Florida. I had a wonderful memory when I traveled in America and I will not forget it in my whole life.

(When turning the first page of the ancient book, old pictures and strange characters appear.
Since you heard the story of the book's owner from Sophia, you must bring the book back to her.)


The website your on right now was a project of mine that came to be completed.
Climb lots of hills in the UK.
I'll flesh this part out at some point.


A quick hack. If you want to call various OpenStack Nova APIs outside the context of a service like nova-compute
, there’s a good chance you’ll need some
configuration. If you have deployment, you’ll likely have a configuration file with all the necessary details. DevStack places its Nova configuration files at
/etc/nova
. Nova provides APIs, which are tiny wrappers around oslo.db functionality, for loading these.
>>> import nova.conf
>>> from nova import config
>>> config.parse_args('foo --config-file /etc/nova/nova.conf'.split())
>>> CONF = nova.conf.CONF
With you configuration, you can now do things that require this configuration. For example, let’s look at our databases using SQLAlchemy.
>>> from nova.db.main import api
>>> engine = api.get_engine()
>>> import sqlalchemy
>>> sqlalchemy.inspect(engine).has_table('alembic_version')
True
>>> sqlalchemy.inspect(engine).has_table('migrate_version')
False
This can be handy to get you out of a hole, or to hack on stuff in a development environment.
