Java Development Kit (JDK), officially named "Java Platform Standard Edition (Java SE)", which is freely available from Sun Microsystems (now part of Oracle), is needed for writing Java programs. The mother site for JDK (Java SE) is http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html.
"JDK" or "JRE"?
JRE (Java Runtime) is needed for running Java programs. JDK (Java Development Kit), which includes JRE plus the development tools (such as compiler and debugger), is need for writing as well as running Java programs. Since you are supposed to write Java Programs, you should install JDK, which includes JRE.
JDK Versions
The various JDK versions are:
- JDK Alpha and Beta (1995): Sun announced Java in September 23, 1995.
- JDK 1.0 (January 23, 1996): Originally called Oak (named after the oak tree outside James Gosling's office). Renamed to Java 1 in JDK 1.0.2.
- JDK 1.1 (February 19, 1997): Introduced AWT event model, inner class, JavaBean, JDBC, and RMI.
- J2SE 1.2 (JDK 1.2) (December 8, 1998): Re-branded as "Java 2" and renamed JDK to J2SE (Java 2 Standard Edition). Also released J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition) and J2ME (Java 2 Micro Edition). Included JFC (Java Foundation Classes - Swing, Accessibility API, Java 2D, Pluggable Look and Feel and Drag and Drop). Introduced Collection Framework and JIT compiler.
- J2SE 1.3 (JDK 1.3) (May 8, 2000): Introduced Hotspot JVM.
- J2SE 1.4 (JDK 1.4) (February 6, 2002): Introduced assert, non-blocking IO (nio), logging API, image IO, Java webstart, regular expression support.
- J2SE 5.0 (JDK 1.5) (September 30, 2004): Officially called 5.0 instead of 1.5. Introduced generics, autoboxing/unboxing, annotation, enum, varargs, for-each loop, static import.
- Java SE 6 (JDK 1.6) (December 11, 2006): Renamed J2SE to Java SE (Java Standard Edition).
- Java SE 7 (JDK 1.7) (July 28, 2011): First version after Oracle purchased Sun (called Oracle JDK).
- Java SE 8 (JDK 1.8) (March 18, 2014): included support for Lambda expressions, default methods, and JavaScript runtime.
- Java SE 9: Expected in March 2017.
How To Install JDK on Windows
Step 0: Un-Install Older Version(s) of JDK/JRE
I recommend that you install only the latest JDK. Although you can install multiple versions of JDK concurrently, it is messy.
If you have previously installed older version(s) of JDK/JRE, un-install ALL of them. Goto "Control Panel" ⇒ "Program and Features" ⇒ Un-install ALL programs begin with "Java", such as "Java SE Development Kit ...", "Java SE Runtime ...", and etc.
Step 1: Download JDK
- Goto Java SE download site @ http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html.
- Under "Java Platform, Standard Edition" ⇒ "Java SE 8u{xx}", where {xx} is the latest update number ⇒ Click the "JDK Download" button.
- Check "Accept License Agreement".
- Choose your operating platform, e.g., "Windows x64" (for 64-bit Windows OS) or "Windows x86" (for 32-bit Windows OS). You can check whether your Windows OS is 32-bit or 64-bit via "Control Panel" ⇒ "System" ⇒ Under "System Type".
Step 2: Install JDK and JRE
Run the downloaded installer (e.g., "jdk-8u{xx}-windows-x64.exe
"), which installs both the JDK and JRE. By default, the JDK will be installed in directory "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xx
", where xx
denotes the latest upgrade number; and JRE in "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_xx
".
For novices, accept the defaults. Follow the screen instructions to install JDK and JRE.
Check the JDK installed directory by inspecting these folders using File Explorer. Take note of your JDK installed directory, which you will need in the next step.
I shall refer to the JDK installed directory as <JAVA_HOME>
, hereafter, in this article.
Step 3: Include JDK's "bin" Directory in the PATH
Windows OS searches the current directory and the directories listed in the PATH
environment variable for executable programs. JDK's programs (such as Java compiler javac.exe
and Java runtime java.exe
) reside in directory "<JAVA_HOME>\bin
" (where <JAVA_HOME>
denotes the JDK installed directory). You need to include "<JAVA_HOME>\bin
" in the PATH
to run the JDK programs.
To edit the PATH
environment variable in Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10:
- Launch "Control Panel" ⇒ "System" ⇒ Click "Advanced system settings".
- Switch to "Advanced" tab ⇒ "Environment Variables".
- Under "System Variables", scroll down to select "Path" ⇒ "Edit...".
- (CAUTION: Read this paragraph 3 times before doing this step! There is no UNDO)
For Windows 10: You see a table listing the existing PATH entries. Click "New" ⇒ Enter the JDK's binary directory "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xx\bin
" (Replacexx
with your installation's upgrade number!!!) ⇒ Select "Move Up" to move it all the way to the top.
Prior to Windows 10: In "Variable value" field, INSERT "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xx\bin
" (Replacexx
with your installation upgrade number!!!) IN FRONT of all the existing directories, followed by a semi-colon (;
) which separates the JDK's binary directory from the rest of the existing directories. DO NOT DELETE any existing entries; otherwise, some existing applications may not run.Variable name : PATH Variable value : c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xx\bin;[exiting entries...]
Step 4: Verify the JDK Installation
Launch a CMD shell (Click "Start" button ⇒ run... ⇒ enter "cmd"; OR from "Start" button ⇒ All Programs ⇒ Accessories ⇒ Command Prompt).
- Issue "
path
" command to list the contents of thePATH
environment variable. Check to make sure that your<JAVA_HOME>\bin
is listed in thePATH
.// Display the PATH entries prompt> path PATH=c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xx\bin;[other entries...]
Don't typeprompt>
, which denotes the command prompt!!! Key in the command (highlighted) only. - Issue the following commands to verify that JDK/JRE are properly installed and display their version:
// Display the JRE version prompt> java -version java version "1.8.0_xx" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_xx-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.5-b02, mixed mode) // Display the JDK version prompt> javac -version javac 1.8.0_xx
Step 5: Write a Hello-World Java Program
- Create a directory to keep your works, e.g., "
d:\myProject
", or "c:\myProject
", or any directory of your choice. Do NOT save your works in "Desktop" or "Documents" as their paths are hard to locate. The directory name shall not contain blank or special characters. Use meaningful but short name as it is easier to type. - Launch a programming text editor (such as TextPad or NotePad++ or Sublime Text). Begin with a new file and enter the following source code. Save the file as "
Hello.java
", under your work directory (e.g.,d:\myProject
)./* * First Java program to say Hello */ public class Hello { // Save as "Hello.java" under "d:\myProject" public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, world!"); } }
Step 6: Compile and Run the Hello-World Java Program
To compile the source code "Hello.java
":
- Start a CMD Shell (Click the "Start" button ⇒ "run..." ⇒ Enter "cmd").
- Set the Current Drive to the drive where you saved your source file "
Hello.java
". For example, suppose that your source file is saved in drive "d
", enter "d:
" as follow:prompt> d: D:\xxx>
Don't enterprompt>
, which denotes the command prompt. - Set the Current Working Directory to the directory that you saved your source file via the
cd
(Change Directory) command. For example, suppose that your source file is saved in directory "d:\myProject
".
D:\xxx> cd \myProject D:\myProject>
- Issue a
dir
(List Directory) command to confirm that your source file is present in the current directory.D:\myProject> dir ...... xx-xxx-xx 06:25 PM 277 Hello.java ......
- Invoke the JDK compiler "
javac
" to compile the source code "Hello.java
".D:\myProject> javac Hello.java
The compilation is successful if the command prompt returns. Otherwise, error messages would be shown. Correct the errors in your source file and re-compile. Check "Common JDK Installation Errors", if you encounter problem compiling your program. - The output of the compilation is a Java class called "
Hello.class
". Issue adir
(List Directory) command again to check for the output.D:\myProject> dir ...... xx-xxx-xx 01:53 PM 416 Hello.class xx-xxx-xx 06:25 PM 277 Hello.java ......
To run the program, invoke the Java Runtime "java
":
D:\myProject> java Hello
Hello, world!
Everything that can possibly go wrong will go wrong: Read "JDK Installation Common Errors".
Step 7: (Optional) Download JDK API Documentation, Samples and Demos
The JDK download does not include the documentation, which needs to be downloaded separately. In the past, I always insist that my students should have a local copy of JDK API Documentation. But, today, you can easily access the online copy by googling "JDK 8 Documentation".
To install JDK API documentation:
- From the Java SE download page (@ http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html), under "Additional Resources", look for "Java SE 8 Documentation" ⇒ Download ⇒ Accept the license agreement ⇒ Download the zip-file (e.g., "
jdk-8u{xx}-apidocs.zip
" - about 85MB). - Unzip into the JDK installed directory
<JAVA_HOME>
. The documentation will be unzipped into "<JAVA_HOME>\docs
". Browse the JDK documentation by opening "<JAVA_HOME>\docs\index.html
".
You should also download the "JDK 8 Samples and Demos" from the Java SE download site.
Step 8: (For Advanced Users Only) JDK's Source Code
Source code for JDK is provided and kept in "<JAVA_HOME>\src.zip
". I strongly recommend that you to go through some of the source files such as "String.java
", "Math.java
", and "Integer.java
", under "java\lang
".
Using TextPad for Java Programming (for Windows)
TextPad (@ www.textpad.com) is a lightweight programming text editor for writing toy Java programs. It can be configured to couple with the JDK, hence, bypassing the CMD shell.
From the TextPad editor, you can invoke the JDK compiler/runtime directly via "Tools" menu ⇒ External Tools ⇒ "Compile Java" or "Run Java Application". Take note of the keyboard shortcuts - Ctrl+1 for compile and Ctrl+2 for run.
If you cannot find these commands in the "Tools" menu, goto "Configure" ⇒ Preferences... ⇒ Tools ⇒ Add ⇒ JDK Commands.
TextPad Tips and Configuration
Check HERE!
Using NotePad++ for Java Programming (on Windows)
Notepad++ (@ http://notepad-plus-plus.org) is a free and open-source programming editor.
You can use NotePad++ to write your Java source code. But you need to use CMD shell to compile and run the Java program.
NotePad++ Customization and Tips
You can customize Notepad++ to compile and run Java programs with hot-keys. Read "NotePad++".
How to Install JDK on Mac
Step 1: Check if JDK has been Pre-Installed
In some Mac systems (earlier than Mac OS X 10.7 Lion), JDK has been pre-installed. To check if JDK has been installed, open a "Terminal" (Finder ⇒ Go ⇒ Utilities ⇒ Terminal) and issue this command:
javac -version
- If a JDK version number is returned (e.g.,
JDK 1.x.x
), then JDK has already been installed. If the JDK version is prior to 1.7, proceed to Step 2 to install the latest JDK; otherwise, proceed to "Step 3: Write a Hello-world Java program". - If message "command not found" appears, JDK is NOT installed. Proceed to the "Step 2: Install JDK".
- If message "To open javac, you need a Java runtime" appears, select "Install" and follow the instructions to install JDK. Then, proceed to "Step 3: Write a Hello-world Java program".
Step 2: Download JDK
- Goto Java SE download site @ http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html. Under "Java Platform, Standard Edition" ⇒ "Java SE 8u{xx}" ⇒ Click the "JDK Download" button
- Check "Accept License Agreement"
- Choose your operating platform, e.g., "Mac OS X" (
jdk-8u{xx}-macosx-x64.dmg
). Download the installer.
Step 3: Install JDK/JRE
- Double-click the downloaded Disk Image (DMG) file. Follow the screen instructions to install JDK/JRE.
- Eject the DMG file.
- To verify your installation, open a "Terminal" and issue these commands.
// Display the JDK version javac -version javac 1.x.x_xx // Display the JRE version java -version java version "1.x.x_xx" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.x.x_xx-xxx) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 22.1-b02, mixed mode, sharing) // Display the location of Java Compiler which javac /usr/bin/javac // Display the location of Java Runtime which java /usr/bin/java
Step 3: Write a Hello-World Java Program
- Create a directory called "
myProject
" under your home directory (Launch "Finder" ⇒ "Go" ⇒ "Home"; Select "File" ⇒ "New Folder" ⇒ "myProject
").
In Mac OS, the home directory of the current login user is denoted as "~
". Hence, this new directory is represented as "~/myProject
". - Use a programming text editor (such as jEdit, gedit, Sublime Text) to input the following source code and save as "
Hello.java
" under the directory "~/myProject
".
[If you use Mac OS's default text editor "TextEdit" (NOT recommended), you need to open a new file ⇒ choose "Format" ⇒ "Make Plain Text" ⇒ Enter the source code ⇒ Save as "Hello.java
".]/* * My First Java program to say Hello */ public class Hello { // Save as "Hello.java" under "~/myProject" public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, world from Mac!"); } }
Step 4: Compile and Run the Hello-World Java Program
- To compile the source code "
Hello.java
", open a new "Terminal" ("Go" ⇒ "Utilities" ⇒ "Terminal") and issue these commands (as illustrated):// Change Directory (cd) to where "Hello.java" resides cd ~/myProject // Check if "Hello.java" exists using list (ls) command ls Hello.java ...... // Compile "Hello.java" using JDK compiler "javac" javac Hello.java // If error message appears, correct your source code and re-compile // Check for the compiled output "Hello.class" ls Hello.class Hello.java ......
- To run the Hello-world, invoke the Java Runtime "
java
" as follows:// Run "Hello.class" java Hello Hello, world from Mac!

- NetBeans allow you to debug program graphically. Read "Debugging program in NetBeans".
(Advanced) External JAR Files and Native Libraries
External Java packages (such as Servlet, MySQL Connector/J, JOGL, JUnit) are often distributed in JAR files (Java Archive - a single-file package of many Java classes), with possibly Native Libraries (".lib
" and ".dll
" in Windows, or ".a
" and ".so
" in Linux/Mac).
External JAR Files (".jar")
If external JAR files are not properly included:
- During the compilation, you will receive compilation error "cannot find symbol" on classes belonging to the external packages.
- During execution, you will get a runtime error "Could not find or load main class xxx" or "
NoClassDefFoundError
".
To include external JAR files, you can either:
- Copy all the JAR files of the external packages to the Java's Extension Directories.
- For Windows, the JDK extension directory is located at "
<JAVA_HOME>\jre\lib\ext
" (e.g., "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_xx\jre\lib\ext
"). - For Mac, the JDK extension directories are "
/Library/Java/Extensions
" and "/System/Library/Java/Extensions
". - For Ubuntu, the JDK extension directories are "
<JAVA_HOME>/jre/lib/ext
" (e.g., "/usr/user/java/jdk1.8.0_xx/jre/lib/ext
") and "/usr/java/packages/lib/ext
".
java.ext.dirs
". You can print its contents viaSystem.out.println(System.getProperty("java.ext.dirs"))
. - For Windows, the JDK extension directory is located at "
- You can also include all the JAR files in the
CLASSPATH
environment variable.CLASSPATH
may contain directories (of Java classes) or JAR files (single-file archive of Java classes). If you set theCLASSPATH
, you must also include the current directory (denoted as ".
").- For Windows, set the
CLASSPATH
in Control Panel ⇒ System ⇒ Advanced system settings ⇒ Advanced ⇒ Environment Variables ⇒ System Variables ⇒ New ⇒ In "Variable name", enter "CLASSPATH
" ⇒ In "Variable value", enter ".;path1\xxx.jar;path2\yyy.jar
", where the entries are separated by a semi-colon (;
). - For Linux and Mac OS: Edit
~/.profile
or~/.bash_profile
(or/etc/profile
for system-wide setting) to include the following line at the end of the file:export CLASSPATH=.:path1/xxx.jar:path2/yyy.jar
The entries are separated by colon (:
).
- For Windows, set the
- You can also set the
CLASSPATH
in thejavac
/java
command-line via the option-cp <paths>
(or-classpath <paths>
), for example,// Compile Java source code > javac -cp .:path1/xxx.jar:path2/yyy.jar ClassName.java // Run Java class > java -cp .:path1/xxx.jar:path2/yyy.jar ClassName
External Native Libraries (".lib", ".dll", ".a", ".so")
Some external package may provide static or shared native libraries in the form of ".lib
" (Windows' static library), ".dll
" (Windows' dynamically link library), ".a
" (Unix's static library), or ".so
" (Unix's shared library).
Native Libraries are to be kept in a directory accessible via JRE's Property "java.library.path
", which normally but not necessarily includes all the directories in the PATH
environment variable.
Native libraries are not involved in the compilation. But if they are not properly included during runtime time, you will get a runtime error "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no xxx in java.library.path
".
To include external native libraries:
- Copy the native libraries into a system library directory, e.g.,
c:\windows\system32
(Windows),/usr/lib
or/usr/local/lib
(Linux or Mac OS). You can verify that the directory is included in Java's System Property "java.library.path
", viaSystem.out.println(System.getProperty("java.library.path"))
. - You can also set the native library path via the
java
's command-line option-Djava.library.path=xxx
, for example,> java -Djava.library.path=xxx ClassName
Eclipse/NetBeans
Using an IDE can greatly simplifies inclusion of external packages. Read "Eclipse How-To" or "NetBeans How-To".

Figure 1: Architecture diagram of Sphinx-4.
Recognizer - Contains the main components of Sphinx-4, which are the front end, the linguist, and the decoder. The application interacts with the Sphinx-4 system mainly via the Recognizer.
Audio - The data to be decoded. This is audio in most systems, but it can also be configured to accept other forms of data, e.g., spectral or cepstral data.
Front End - Performs digital signal processing (DSP) on the incoming data.
Feature - The output of the front end are features, which are used for decoding in the rest of the system.
Linguist - Embodies the linguistic knowledge of the system, which are the acoustic model, the dictionary, and the language model. The linguist produces a search graph structure on which the search manager performs search using different algorithms.
Acoustic Model - Contains a representation (often statistical) of a sound, often created by training using lots of acoustic data.
Dictionary - Responsible for determining how a words is pronounced.
Language Model - Contains a representation (often statistical) of the probability of occurrence of words.
Search Graph - The graph structure produced by the linguist according to certain criteria (e.g., the grammar), using knowledge from the dictionary, the acoustic model, and the language model.
Decoder - Contains the search manager.
Search Manager - Performs search using certain algorithm used, e.g., breadth-first search, best-first search, depth-first search, etc.. Also contains the feature scorer and the pruner.
Active List - A list of tokens representing all the states in the search graph that are active in the current feature frame.
Scorer - Scores the current feature frame against all the active states in the ActiveList.
Pruner - Prunes the active list according to certain strategies.
Result - The decoded result, which usually contains the N-best results.
Configuration Manager - loads the Sphinx-4 configuration data from an XML-based file, and manages the component life cycle for objects.

Shanghai Noon A film review by Marty Mapes Copyright 2000 Marty Mapes
**1/2 (out of 4) I love Jackie Chan movies. Even if the plot is confusing or the characters are flat, I love them anyway because Chan's amazing stunts and graceful moves are a joy to watch. Unfortunately, SHANGHAI NOON has no amazing stunts, and although there are some fight sequences, they are more edited and less performed than I've come to expect from Chan. The movie isn't completely unlikeable, but it's not for Chan connoisseurs.

The movie opens in China on one of the oldest and most-used plot devices in the world: the Princess has been kidnapped. Naturally, Jackie Chan (playing Chon Wang) is sent to the Western U.S. territories to find her and bring her back.
The movie introduces us to Roy (Owen Wilson) and his band of comically inept outlaws. Roy and his gang are robbing the passengers of a train -- the same train that Chon and the rest of the royal entourage is on. One of Roy's men shoots one of the "Chinamen," Chon's uncle, which gives the movie an excuse for a fight scene.
The First Stunt
It had been about 15 minutes without any Jackie Chan stunts -- not even any little easy ones. So when someone disconnected the last car on the train, with Jackie on one side and the bad guys on the other, I knew I was about to witness the first stunt. I was on the edge of my seat, ready to be amazed and thrilled. Jackie backed up into the car to get a running start, dashed toward the end of the car, and ...
And the editor cut to a blurry medium shot of a figure that MIGHT HAVE been Chan, jumping between two train cars that MIGHT HAVE been moving at different speeds. If Chan really did do the stunt, then the director and the editor are idiots for obscuring it. But I'm sure that's not the case.
The Second Stunt
The fight continues up the train as Chon takes on Roy's gang, one by one. Finally, Chon finds himself on a stack of timbers piled on a flatbed car. Gun in hand, Roy follows him onto the logs, and the two stare each other down. One of Roy's henchmen appears, standing next to a release lever at the end of the car. He growls "I know how to get him offa there."
Again I saw the stunt coming. I was on the edge of my seat, ready to be amazed and thrilled. Jackie stands on the logs with a look of shock on his face. The henchman pulls the lever to release the logs, and...
And the editor cuts to a helicopter shot of two figures that MIGHT have been real people (if they weren't computer-generated), harmlessly flailing their limbs over a pile of rolling and tumbling logs. Clang! Ooof!
SHANGHAI NOON's fight scenes have the choreography and pace of Chan's other movies. But still, I think they rely more heavily on editing and less on performance than in previous Chan movies. The most obvious example is when Chon makes a weapon from a rope and a horseshoe. It LOOKS like the weapon was too hard to use because there's never a clear shot of the thing working. But add a few sound effects and turn up the volume (Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh! Clang! Ooof!), and you can get away with visually sloppy fight scenes.
--------------------------- "These guns are really weird." -- Owen Wilson as Roy ---------------------------
The movie does have some things going for it. Wilson is appealing as the bandit who can't shoot straight and who doesn't have the heart to be ruthless. Some of the movie's funniest lines, ad-libbed by Wilson, come from the softspoken, yet sarcastic Roy.
Also, the camaraderie between Roy and Chon (after their first encounter, they forgive and forget) was funny and warm. It's the same friendship that Chris Tucker and Chan showed in RUSH HOUR, which makes me think Chan is really as nice a guy as he seems.
Plus, it's just hard not to like Jackie Chan, especially when he's doing fight scenes that have been choreographed just for him. At one point he fends off two drunken cowboys wielding only moose antlers.
Unfortunately, the filmmakers underused Chan's talents. His role could have been played by anyone. I didn't go to see SHANGHAI NOON the comedy. I went to see SHANGHAI NOON the Jackie Chan movie, and I was disappointed. -- ___________ Marty Mapes<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Movie Habit http://www.moviehabit.com

Relax while it floats.
Effective, intuitive, enjoyable
It’s a fishing float that communicates with your smartphone notifying you whenever a fish takes the bait. This way you can relax and enjoy the experience to its fullest without having to constantly keep an eye on the bobber. It's equipped with a togglable light indicator for night fishing and inbuilt GPS tracking in case you get too drunk to remember where you left it. We also got wireless charging just to look hip.
It might as well be the best floating device ever made. Trust me. It's the best. Other ones are fake.
MAKE FISHING GREAT AGAIN

This is an extension of the Vulkan ray tracing [tutorial](vkrt_tutorial.md.html).
Ray tracing allows using [callable shaders](https://www.khronos.org/registry/vulkan/specs/1.1-extensions/html/chap8.html#shaders-callable)
in ray generation, closest hit, and miss shaders, as well as in other callable shaders.
Calling a shader is similar to performing an indirect function call, without
having to link the shaders that will be called with the executable program.
(insert setup.md.html here)
# Data Storage
Shaders can pass data into the shaders they call. Different shaders can take
different structures of data. Each structure of data should be declared much
like a ray tracing payload.
In the parent stage, a structure could be declared like this, using the `callableDataNV` storage qualifier:
~~~~ C++
layout(location = 0) callableDataNV rayLight cLight;
~~~~
where the `rayLight` struct is defined in a shared file.
~~~~ C++
struct rayLight
{
vec3 inHitPosition;
float outLightDistance;
vec3 outLightDir;
float outIntensity;
};
~~~~
In the incoming callable shader, you must use the `callableDataInNV` storage qualifier,
instead of `callableDataNV`.
~~~~ C++
layout(location = 0) callableDataInNV rayLight cLight;
~~~~
The callable shader can also modify the data in this structure, so that its
parent shader can access it when it returns.
# Execution
To execute one of the callable shaders, the parent stage needs to call `executeCallableNV`.
The first parameter is the SBT record index, and the second one is the `location` index of the structure to pass.
For instance, for the example code above, we might call it like this:
~~~~ C++
executeCallableNV(pushC.lightType, 0);
~~~~
It'll then execute the callable shader with index `pushC.lightType` with the
data in `cLight`.
# Adding Callable Shaders to the SBT
## Create Shader Modules
In `HelloVulkan::createRtPipeline()`, immediately after adding the closest-hit shader, we will add
3 callable shaders, for each type of light.
~~~~ C++
// Callable shaders
vk::RayTracingShaderGroupCreateInfoNV callGroup{vk::RayTracingShaderGroupTypeNV::eGeneral,
VK_SHADER_UNUSED_NV, VK_SHADER_UNUSED_NV,
VK_SHADER_UNUSED_NV, VK_SHADER_UNUSED_NV};
vk::ShaderModule call0 =
nvvkpp::util::createShaderModule(m_device,
nvh::loadFile("shaders/light_point.rcall.spv", true, paths));
vk::ShaderModule call1 =
nvvkpp::util::createShaderModule(m_device,
nvh::loadFile("shaders/light_spot.rcall.spv", true, paths));
vk::ShaderModule call2 =
nvvkpp::util::createShaderModule(m_device,
nvh::loadFile("shaders/light_inf.rcall.spv", true, paths));
stages.push_back({{}, vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eCallableNV, call0, "main"});
callGroup.setGeneralShader(static_cast(stages.size() - 1));
m_rtShaderGroups.push_back(callGroup);
stages.push_back({{}, vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eCallableNV, call1, "main"});
callGroup.setGeneralShader(static_cast(stages.size() - 1));
m_rtShaderGroups.push_back(callGroup);
stages.push_back({{}, vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eCallableNV, call2, "main"});
callGroup.setGeneralShader(static_cast(stages.size() - 1));
m_rtShaderGroups.push_back(callGroup);
~~~~
At the end of the function, delete the shaders.
~~~~ C++
m_device.destroy(call0);
m_device.destroy(call1);
m_device.destroy(call2);
~~~~
### Shaders
Here is the source code for all three shaders. After adding these files to the
`shaders` directory of the project, you'll need to re-run CMake, so that they
show up in your IDE.
* [light_point.rcall](https://github.com/nvpro-samples/vk_raytracing_tutorial/blob/master/ray_tracing_callable/shaders/light_point.rcall)
* [light_spot.rcall](https://github.com/nvpro-samples/vk_raytracing_tutorial/blob/master/ray_tracing_callable/shaders/light_spot.rcall)
* [light_inf.rcall](https://github.com/nvpro-samples/vk_raytracing_tutorial/blob/master/ray_tracing_callable/shaders/light_inf.rcall)
You will also need to add the following `rayLight` struct to `raycommon.glsl`,
so that it will be accessible from both the calling and called shaders.
~~~~ C++
struct rayLight
{
vec3 inHitPosition;
float outLightDistance;
vec3 outLightDir;
float outIntensity;
};
~~~~
[Here](https://github.com/nvpro-samples/vk_raytracing_tutorial/blob/master/ray_tracing_callable/shaders/raycommon.glsl) is the final code for `raycommon.glsl`.
## Passing Callable Shaders to traceRaysNV
In `HelloVulkan::raytrace()`, we have to tell `traceRaysNV` where the callable shaders start in the SBT. Since they were added after the hit shader, the SBT now contains the following shader group handles:
********************
* +--------+
* | raygen |
* +--------+
* | miss0 |
* | miss1 |
* +--------+
* | hit0 |
* +--------+
* | call0 |
* | call1 |
* | call2 |
* +--------+
********************
Therefore, the callable shaders start at `4 * progSize`.
~~~~ C++
vk::DeviceSize callableGroupOffset = 4u * progSize; // Jump over the previous shaders
vk::DeviceSize callableGroupStride = progSize;
~~~~
Then we can call `traceRaysNV`
~~~~ C++
cmdBuf.traceRaysNV(m_rtSBTBuffer.buffer, rayGenOffset, //
m_rtSBTBuffer.buffer, missOffset, missStride, //
m_rtSBTBuffer.buffer, hitGroupOffset, hitGroupStride, //
m_rtSBTBuffer.buffer, callableGroupOffset, callableGroupStride, //
m_size.width, m_size.height, //
1); // depth
~~~~
# Calling the Callable Shaders
In the closest-hit shader, instead of having a if-else statement or a switch statement, we can now call the right shader directly based on the type of light. Here, you can also see
the code that would be used without callable shaders.
~~~~ C++
cLight.inHitPosition = worldPos;
//#define DONT_USE_CALLABLE
#if defined(DONT_USE_CALLABLE)
// Point light
if(pushC.lightType == 0)
{
vec3 lDir = pushC.lightPosition - cLight.inHitPosition;
float lightDistance = length(lDir);
cLight.outIntensity = pushC.lightIntensity / (lightDistance * lightDistance);
cLight.outLightDir = normalize(lDir);
cLight.outLightDistance = lightDistance;
}
else if(pushC.lightType == 1)
{
vec3 lDir = pushC.lightPosition - cLight.inHitPosition;
cLight.outLightDistance = length(lDir);
cLight.outIntensity =
pushC.lightIntensity / (cLight.outLightDistance * cLight.outLightDistance);
cLight.outLightDir = normalize(lDir);
float theta = dot(cLight.outLightDir, normalize(-pushC.lightDirection));
float epsilon = pushC.lightSpotCutoff - pushC.lightSpotOuterCutoff;
float spotIntensity = clamp((theta - pushC.lightSpotOuterCutoff) / epsilon, 0.0, 1.0);
cLight.outIntensity *= spotIntensity;
}
else // Directional light
{
cLight.outLightDir = normalize(-pushC.lightDirection);
cLight.outIntensity = 1.0;
cLight.outLightDistance = 10000000;
}
#else
executeCallableNV(pushC.lightType, 0);
#endif
~~~~
[Here](https://github.com/nvpro-samples/vk_raytracing_tutorial/blob/master/ray_tracing_callable/shaders/raytrace.rchit) is the final code for `raytrace.rchit`.
# Modifying Push Constants
When we modified `raytrace.rchit`, we also added additional information for spot
lights. We need to match this in the C++ code, by changing the `ObjPushConstant`
definition in `hello_vulkan.h` to
~~~~ C++
// Information pushed at each draw call
struct ObjPushConstant
{
nvmath::vec3f lightPosition{10.f, 15.f, 8.f};
float lightIntensity{100.f};
nvmath::vec3f lightDirection{-1, -1, -1};
float lightSpotCutoff{cos(deg2rad(12.5f))};
float lightSpotOuterCutoff{cos(deg2rad(17.5f))};
int instanceId{0}; // To retrieve the transformation matrix
int lightType{0}; // 0: point, 1: infinite
};
~~~~
We also need to modify `RtPushConstant` at the end of `hello_vulkan.h`:
~~~~ C++
struct RtPushConstant
{
nvmath::vec4f clearColor;
nvmath::vec3f lightPosition;
float lightIntensity;
nvmath::vec3f lightDirection{-1, -1, -1};
float lightSpotCutoff{deg2rad(12.5f)};
float lightSpotOuterCutoff{deg2rad(17.5f)};
int lightType;
} m_rtPushConstants;
~~~~
The push constants will also need to be accessible from callable shaders, so
in `createRtPipeline`, modify the definition of `pushConstant` to include
the `vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eCallableNV` flag:
~~~~ C++
vk::PushConstantRange pushConstant{vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eRaygenNV
| vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eClosestHitNV
| vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eMissNV
| vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eCallableNV,
0, sizeof(RtPushConstant)};
~~~~
Finally, in `HelloVulkan::raytrace`, copy the new data in `m_pushConstant` to
`m_rtPushConstants` and make sure `m_rtPushConstants` is accessible from
callable shaders:
~~~~ C++
// Initializing push constant values
m_rtPushConstants.clearColor = clearColor;
m_rtPushConstants.lightPosition = m_pushConstant.lightPosition;
m_rtPushConstants.lightIntensity = m_pushConstant.lightIntensity;
m_rtPushConstants.lightDirection = m_pushConstant.lightDirection;
m_rtPushConstants.lightSpotCutoff = m_pushConstant.lightSpotCutoff;
m_rtPushConstants.lightSpotOuterCutoff = m_pushConstant.lightSpotOuterCutoff;
m_rtPushConstants.lightType = m_pushConstant.lightType;
~~~~
~~~~ C++
cmdBuf.pushConstants(m_rtPipelineLayout,
vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eRaygenNV
| vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eClosestHitNV
| vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eMissNV
| vk::ShaderStageFlagBits::eCallableNV,
0, m_rtPushConstants);
~~~~
# Modifying the User Interface
At the moment, the user interface only has options for point and infinite lights.
We need to add support for spot lights as well by changing the Dear ImGui calls
at the end of `renderUI` to the following:
~~~~ C++
ImGui::RadioButton("Point", &helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightType, 0);
ImGui::SameLine();
ImGui::RadioButton("Spot", &helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightType, 1);
ImGui::SameLine();
ImGui::RadioButton("Infinite", &helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightType, 2);
if(helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightType < 2)
ImGui::SliderFloat3("Light Position", &helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightPosition.x, -20.f, 20.f);
if(helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightType > 0)
ImGui::SliderFloat3("Light Direction", &helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightDirection.x, -1.f, 1.f);
if(helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightType < 2)
ImGui::SliderFloat("Light Intensity", &helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightIntensity, 0.f, 500.f);
if(helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightType == 1)
{
float dCutoff = rad2deg(acos(helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightSpotCutoff));
float dOutCutoff = rad2deg(acos(helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightSpotOuterCutoff));
ImGui::SliderFloat("Cutoff", &dCutoff, 0.f, 45.f);
ImGui::SliderFloat("OutCutoff", &dOutCutoff, 0.f, 45.f);
dCutoff = dCutoff > dOutCutoff ? dOutCutoff : dCutoff;
helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightSpotCutoff = cos(deg2rad(dCutoff));
helloVk.m_pushConstant.lightSpotOuterCutoff = cos(deg2rad(dOutCutoff));
}
~~~~

02. Research
COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
Looking into the market, trying to find inspiration and gaps among the existing products.
I used Appfollow, an application insight tool, to look into the app market and find
competitive
apps. Then chose 2 most
similar apps that are in some way better than Focus To-Do to do
the analysis.
A screenshot from Appfollow dashboard.
Pros:
- Have more competitive time management relative report
- Have To-do list
- Have laptop version
Cons:
- Task and timer need to be set in seperate page
- Unclear timer setting method
Pros:
- User can setup the task and timer in the main page
- Have to-do list
- Have laptop version
Cons:
- Too many advertisements
- Interface design is over simple
Pros:
- Clear timer setting method
Cons:
- Do not have to-do list
- Do not laptop version
65>
What are the products in the market now?
Combining their pros, a good app should have
1) the to-do list and time management relative report.
2) clear setting function for users to set up the timer and task.
However, none of these apps provide a function to help users build up time
management
habits.
"As a designer, I know that I shouldn't design
for myself.
I cannot assume that the problem
is
widespread enough that it's worth the effort to design something to solve it."
INTERVIEWS & PERSONAS
Thinking from the users, discovering their needs.
To
quickly
understand whether this is a problem worth solving, I tried
to understand more about the challenges that arose while people use this kind of mobile
application. I conducted quick, semi-structured interviews with 5 random people and came up
with
the
persona.
What are the users' needs?
For new users, it is a challenge for them to build up the routine to use the time
management app; while for people who already have time management habit, they hope
the
app is easy to use and can provide have
time analysis report, allowing them to track and improve their skill better.
ONLINE REVIEWS & JOURNEY MAP
Back to the product, what is the gap between user goals and pain points?
With users' needs in mind, I started to look back into Focus To-Do. Looking at the entire
experience from user's standpoint, thinking of the problems it may have, and also
identifying
some
potential opportunities for the product.
I also read through online reviews on both Google Play
and
App Store to make sure that I have covered all the problems of this app.
What are the problems for Focus To-Do?
Problem 1: Unintuitive and confusing user experience.
Inefficient ways of presentations make the majority of the information displayed on
the main page irrelevant to user needs.
The overused icons without any explanation also create obstacles to users. The
unintuitive design hurts users' experience, which in turn
leads users
to switch to other time management app.
Problem 2: The theme colors limit potential users.
Theme colors and the app style are also two of the main concerns for users
when deciding to use the app or not. The bright pink
color themes
for this app had reduced some users' willingness to use it.
Problem 3: Cannot help new users to build up the time management habit.
Lack of
consistency and
motivation are two of the most common problems that stop people from pursuing a
new
habit. As a human being, it is natural for us to revert to familiar structures.
Building
a new habit usually often takes extra effort, and people tend to avoid
effort.
06. Reflection
Don't make users think
I used to have a guide page in
my
initial version for
the first time users. However, after the
first usability test, I found out that users easily forget
where to find the specific function. A
good design should follow users' mental model and let them
easily
and
quickly find the function they want. And also,
although my app is based on a Pomodoro technique, I should not
think
that
everyone using my application knows it. I should apply the
technique in the app without letting users' learn, and let
users'
gain the benefit from the technique directly.
User experience is not just only about the interface
While clarifying the problem, I have noticed that power consumption is also
one of the issues. Since this is only a case study, I cannot communicate
with the engineers to fix the problem. However, every small piece is can all
influence the whole experience. It reminds me that when doing the project, I
should always have a big picture and put more things into consideration, not
just design.


Coronation Street SPOILERS: Ken's rushed to hospital
Ken falls sick
by Charlotte RodriguesKen Barlow is rushed to hospital in next week's Coronation Street.
In upcoming scenes Peter has some more bad news to share with the family.
He tells Adam that Ken is in hospital and has been diagnosed with pneumonia.
Read More: Coronation Street viewers want Gary, Geoff and Robert killed off
It's been a trying time for the Barlows following Sinead's death and it looks like the stressful months have finally taken their toll on Ken.
At 80 years old, pneumonia can be potentially fatal - will Ken be okay?
Meanwhile, Peter is also trying to deal with his grieving brother Daniel, who's struggling to cope without Sinead.
Sinead was diagnosed with cervical cancer last year when she was pregnant with her son Bertie.
Although she was told earlier this year her tumour had shrunk and showed no signs of spreading, she found a lump at her wedding to Daniel.
After going to the doctors, she was told she only had months to live, which was soon cut down to weeks as the doctors could do no more for her.
She passed away as Daniel read their son Bertie a story.
Since her death, Daniel has been struggling with his loss and decided to take a trip with Bertie, but Peter and Ken have been concerned for him since he told them he didn't want to attend Sinead's funeral.
Read More: Coronation Street SPOILERS: Daniel gets arrested
However, in spoilers it is revealed he makes it back just in time.
But how will the news about Ken affect an already unstable Daniel?
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.

24 hr staff available but eating it in front of guests.


 You can do this with the following command:
$ rest-tool test --update --overwrite
The --overwrite
option tells the tool to overwrite the existing cases, otherwise it will keep they if they exist yet.
During the generation process the rest-tool
load all the services and builds an internal tree-like data structure, which represents every service/method/test-case. The rest tool traverses this structure, and puts each test-case into the template that is referred by that given instance. The results are put into the test folder.
After the test cases is generated, you can run the tests, directly from the command line, or by the continuous integration server. Use one of the following commands:
$ make test
or
$ mocha
To select the appropriate reporting format for the continuous integration environment, modify the Makefile
:
REPORTER ?= spec
test:
@node_modules/.bin/mocha --reporter $(REPORTER)
.PHONY: test
You can use your own test programs, which can be built from the service descriptors. Only the templates should be written and placed into the templates/test
folder, and must be referred from the test cases using the template
property. For example: template: testGetMethod.mustache
.
The following code example shows the testGetMethod.mustache
template, which is used for basic testing of GET requests:
var request = require('superagent'),
should = require('should'),
mocha = require('mocha');
describe('{{description}}', function() {
var agent = request.agent();
it('should {{description}}', function(done) {
agent
.get('{{baseUrl}}{{url}}')
{{#loginCredentials}}.auth('{{user}}',
'{{pass}}'){{/loginCredentials}}
.set('Accept', 'application/json')
.end(function(err, res) {
should.not.exist(err);
res.should.have.status({{response.statusCode}});
res.should.have.property('body');
// FIXME add further checks if appropriate
{{#jsonschema}}
var path = require('path');
var JaySchema = require('jayschema');
var js = new JaySchema(JaySchema.loaders.http);
var schema = require(path.join(__dirname,
'..', 'schemas', '{{jsonschema}}.json'));
js.validate(res.body, schema, function(errs) {
should.not.exist(errs);
done();
});
{{/jsonschema}}
{{^jsonschema}}done();{{/jsonschema}}
});
});
});
The code using this template with the monitoring/isAlive/service.yml
service descriptor will be generate into the test/Get Monitoring Is Alive.js
file, looks like this:
var request = require('superagent'),
should = require('should'),
mocha = require('mocha');
describe('Successfully checks if server is alive', function() {
var agent = request.agent();
it('should Successfully checks if server is alive', function(done) {
agent
.get('http://localhost:3007/rest/monitoring/isAlive')
.auth('username', 'password')
.set('Accept', 'application/json')
.end(function(err, res) {
should.not.exist(err);
res.should.have.status(200);
res.should.have.property('body');
// FIXME add further checks if appropriate
done();
});
});
});
During the test-case generation process, each template got the whole service description, and some additional data.
In case you would like to extend the template set of your test cases (for example to add JSON or XML validation), you should execute the following steps:
templates/test
folder.service.yml
files using the template
property of the testCases.It also means that you can write test cases in any programming language (Java, Ruby, Perl, etc.). So for example it is possible to generate JUnit test cases into your Java project, and run them on a Continuous Integration server.

HEAVY A film review by Mark R. Leeper Copyright 1996 Mark R. Leeper
CAPSULE: HEAVY is both a story and a film about how film works. It is at once an intense emotional experience and a study of how dialogue affects the tone and strength of a film. The story is of the people who can nightly be found at small-town tavern, people whose lives are basically the same from one day to the next. The film especially concentrates on the overweight cook, Victor, a child-man almost too shy to talk and having a mid-life crisis. HEAVY packs more of an emotional wallop than any film so far this year. Rating: high +2 (-4 to +4)
It is a familiar viewpoint that color in a film actually distracts the viewer and mutes the emotional impact of the film's camerawork. What is less commonly observed is that dialogue may actually do much the same thing. We have seen the overly florid gesturing of silent film acting, much of which looks silly today. But some silent films were extremely intense emotional pieces in their day. Perhaps as much of the emotional potential of film was lost with sound film as was lost with color. HEAVY is a color film, and a sound film, but it functions very much as a silent film would. Almost all of the story is conveyed either in visual images or in single lines of dialogue, perhaps appropriate to title cards in silent films. Of course the film is not lacking in dialogue, but the dialogue is almost never used to move the plot along. It adds a little color and background interest to the film, but it is rarely used to advance the plot. This is a film that owes much more to the traditions of silent film than to those of the sound era. By forcing the viewer to carefully watch the characters, very different information can be imparted to the viewer and the technique focuses attention on the emotions of the characters.
Most of the action takes place in and around Pete and Dolly's Restaurant, a bar and restaurant in a small New England town. Pete has been dead for years and his widow Dolly (Shelley Winters) still blames waitress Delores (Deborah Harry in a surprisingly textured role) for a liaison with Pete. When Dolly hires an attractive teenager Callie (Liv Tyler) to help out there is immediate resentment from Delores. Caught between the two is Victor (Pruitt Taylor Vince), Dolly's son somewhere in his 30s. Victor is so stigmatized by his own obesity and so dominated by his mother that it is all he can do to occasionally speak. He is very much attracted to Callie but cannot bring himself to have a conversation with her. Instead he decides to try to reinvent himself, taking up dieting and investigating a local cooking school. But he must fight the forces of his own inertia and that of his mother who wants to keep him in his present job. He fantasizes about being a hero and saving Callie. Soon Victor's life, which has been static for so many years, starts to change violently. His reaction and his behavior when those changes come is totally unexpected. Little of this are we told about, it is almost all shown to us and Victor's quiet nature is perfect for the visual style of storytelling. The same story could have been lightened by comedy but writer and director James Mangold takes a very realistic approach and rarely strays from it.
This is a very precisely directed film and it has many very nice subtle touches. As an example of the directing technique, to underscore Victor's image of himself, there is a scene in which he looks at a stack of photographs. Gingerly he places each on a table after looking at it. When he gets to a picture of himself he puts it down with a small slam. Small and subtle touches do what another story would simply tell with dialogue.
In general the production values speak of a film made well on a low budget. The colors were not particularly rich, indicating a less- expensive print. But the performances are all very powerful. Pruitt Taylor Vince's acting gets more and more intense as the film goes on.
The usual way of saying it is that one "sees" a film, but for most films much more of the story is conveyed in the dialogue than the visuals. HEAVY is truly a film one sees rather than hears. Mangold's experiment in visual storytelling may not have a lot of application to other films, but it works extremely well in this film. I would rate HEAVY a high +2 on the -4 to +4 scale.

Today I realized that I've overscheduled umemployment, which explains why I'm working on this now. I began this morning with pseudo-meditation (which I guess is actual meditation) and then went ice skating (I love ice skating!!). I read over DBC materials for a few hours around lunch, then left for my next engagement.
In the afternoon I volunteered at a public library, where I was tasked with face painting children for the library's summer program. I painted tiger stripes, spider webs, eyeshadow, flowers, hearts, and butterflies. Then I returned home and have been working on Week 1 materials since!

Susan Granger's review of "THE APARTMENT COMPLEX" (SHOWTIME TV)
On Sunday, October 31, at 8 PM on Showtime TV, horror maestro Tobe Hooper presents a quirky, psychological mystery, "The Apartment Complex," starring Chad Lowe as a young grad student who has just moved from the Midwest to study psychology at UCLA. Broke and living out of his car, he's hired by Jon Polito, as the malevolent Dr. Caligari, to manage the Wonder View Apartments in Hollywood in exchange for rent, despite warnings from Obba Babatunde, playing a homeless philosopher who lurks on the front curb. Inspired more by Stephen King than Frank Lloyd Wright, there's something very strange about the Wonder View Apartments. Certainly the tenants are an oddball assortment of neurotics and psychotics, ideal specimens for a master thesis on abnormal psychology. There's Faye Masterson, a haunted-looking beauty with her hot-tempered, insanely jealous boyfriend, Patrick Warburton; Amanda Plummer, an over-sexed psychic; Tyra Banks and Gina Mari, stunt actresses who dabble in martial arts; R. Lee Ermey, a paranoid, reclusive ex-government agent; creepy twins Jimmy and David Schuelke; and Charles Martin Smith as the agoraphobic with a dark, terrible secret. The horror starts when Lowe discovers a dead body in the murky swimming pool. Detectives Ron Canada and Miguel Sandoval figure he's their only suspect, tormenting and bullying him as other strange events plague the tenants. All the psycho-babble he's been learning in grad school comes in handy as the wise-beyond-his-years student begins doling out free therapy as he zeros in on the real killer. On the Granger Made-for-Television Gauge, "The Apartment Complex" is a sinister 6.
