This book provides a thorough introduction to replication as used with Berkeley DB, Java Edition (JE). It begins by offering a general overview to replication and the benefits it provides. It also describes the APIs that you use to implement replication, and it describes architecturally the things that you need to do to your application code in order to use the replication APIs.
You should understand the concepts from the Berkeley DB, Java Edition Getting Started with Transaction Processing guide before reading this book.
Welcome to the JE High Availability (HA) product. JE HA is a replicated, single-master, embedded database engine based on Berkeley DB, Java Edition. JE HA offers important improvements in application availability, as well as offering improved read scalability and performance. JE HA does this by extending the data guarantees offered by a traditional transactional system to processes running on multiple physical hosts.
The JE replication APIs allow you to distribute your database contents (performed on a read-write Master) to one or more read-only Replicas. For this reason, JE's replication implementation is said to be a single master, multiple replica replication strategy.
Replication offers your application a number of benefits that can be a tremendous help. Primarily, replication's benefits revolve around performance, but there is also a benefit in terms of data durability guarantees.
Briefly, some of the reasons why you might choose to implement replication in your JE application are:
Improved application availability.
By spreading your data across multiple machines, you can ensure that your application's data continues to be available even in the event of a hardware failure on any given machine in the replication group.
Improve read performance.
By using replication you can spread data reads across multiple machines on your network. Doing so allows you to vastly improve your application's read performance. This strategy might be particularly interesting for applications that have readers on remote network nodes; you can push your data to the network's edges thereby improving application data read responsiveness.
 That is, the commit must be written to disk (usually, but not always, synchronously) before the application's thread of control can continue operations.
Replication allows you to batch disk I/O so that it is performed as efficiently as possible while still maintaining a degree of durability by committing to the network. In other words, you relax your transactional durability guarantees on the machine where you perform the database write, but by virtue of replicating the data across the network you gain some additional durability guarantees beyond what is provided locally.
Improve data durability guarantee.
 Beyond this, the durability of your data is dependent upon the backup strategy that you choose to implement for your site.
Replication allows you to increase this durability guarantee by ensuring that data modifications are written to multiple machines. This means that multiple disks, disk controllers, power supplies, and CPUs are used to ensure that your data modification makes it to stable storage. In other words, replication allows you to minimize the problem of a single point of failure by using more hardware to guarantee your data writes.
If you are using replication for this reason, then you probably will want to configure your application such that it waits to hear about a successful commit from one or more replicas before continuing with the next operation. This will obviously impact your application's write performance to some degree — with the performance penalty being largely dependent upon the speed and stability of the network connecting your replication group.
Processes that take part in a JE HA application are generically called nodes. Most nodes serve as a read-only Replica. One node in the HA application can perform database writes. This is the Master node.
The sum totality of all the nodes taking part in the replicated application is called the replication group. While it is only a logical entity (there is no object that you instantiate and destroy which represents the replication group), the replication group is the first-order element of management for a replicated HA application. It is very important to remember that the replication group is persistent in that it exists regardless of whether its member nodes are currently running. In fact, nodes that have been added to a replication group (with the exception of Secondary nodes) will remain in the group until they are manually removed from the group by you or your application's administrator.
Replication groups consist of electable nodes and, optionally, Monitor and Secondary nodes.
Electable nodes are replication group members that can be elected to become the group's Master node through a replication election. Electable nodes are also the group members that vote in these elections. If an electable node is not a Master, then it serves in the replication group as a read-only Replica. Electable nodes have access to a JE environment, and are persistent members of the replication group. Electable nodes that are Replicas also participate in transaction durability decisions by providing the master with acknowledgments of transaction commits.
Beyond Master and Replica, a node can also be in several other states. See Replication Group Life Cycle for more information.
Most of the nodes in a replication group are electable nodes, but it is possible to have nodes of the other types as well.
Secondary nodes also have access to a JE environment, but can only serve as read-only replicas, not masters, and do not participate in elections. Secondary nodes can be used to provide read-only data access from locations with higher latency network connections to the rest of the replication group without introducing communication delays into elections. Secondary nodes are not persistent members of the replication group; they are only considered members when they are connected to the current master. Secondary nodes do not participate in transaction durability decisions.
Monitor nodes do not have access to a JE environment and do not participate in elections. For this reason, they cannot serve as either a Master or a Replica. Instead, they merely monitor the composition of the replication group as changes are made by adding and removing electable nodes, joining and leaving of electable and secondary nodes, and as elections are held to select a new Master. Monitor nodes are therefore used by applications external to the JE replicated application to route data requests to the various members of the replication group. Monitor nodes are persistent members of the replication group. Monitor nodes do not participate in transaction durability decisions.
Note that all nodes in a replication group have a unique group-wide name. Further, all replication groups are also assigned a unique name. This is necessary because it is possible for a single process to have access to multiple replication groups. Further, any given collection of hardware can be running multiple replication groups (a production and a test group, for example.) By uniquely identifying the replication group with a unique name, it is possible for JE HA to internally check that nodes have not been misconfigured and so make sure that messages are being routed to the correct location.
All electable and secondary nodes must have access to a database environment. Further, no node can share a database environment with another node.
More to the point, in order to create an electable or secondary node in a replication group, you use a specialized form of the environment handle: ReplicatedEnvironment.
There is no JE-specified limit to the number of environments which can join a replication group. The only limitation here is one of resources — network bandwidth, for example.
We discuss ReplicatedEnvironment handle usage in Using Replicated Environments. For an introduction to database environments, see the Getting Started with Berkeley DB, Java Edition guide.
Every replication group is allowed one and only one Master. Masters are selected by holding an election. All such elections are performed by the underlying Berkeley DB, Java Edition replication code.
When a node joins a replication group, it attempts to locate the Master. If it is the first electable node added to the replication group, then it automatically becomes the Master. If it is an electable node, but is not the first to startup in the replication group and it cannot locate the Master, it calls for an election. Further, if at any time the Master becomes unavailable to the replication group, the electable replicas will call for an election.
When holding an election, election participants vote on who should be the Master. Among the electable nodes participating in the election, the node with the most up-to-date set of logs will win the election. In order to win an election, a node must win a simple majority of the votes.
Usually JE requires a majority of electable nodes to be available to hold an election. If a simple majority is not available, then the replication group will no longer be able to accept write requests as there will be no Master.
Note that an electable node is part of the replication group even if it is currently not running or is otherwise unreachable by the rest of the replication group. Membership of electable nodes in the replication group is persistent; once an electable node joins the group, it remains in the group regardless of its current state. The only way an electable node leaves a replication group is if you manually remove it from the group (see Adding and Removing Nodes from the Group for details). This is a very important point to remember when considering elections. An election cannot be held if the majority of electable nodes in the group are not running or are otherwise unreachable.
There are two circumstances under which a majority of electable nodes need not be available in order to hold an election. The first is for the special circumstance of the two-node group. See Configuring Two-Node Groups for details.
The second circumstance is if you explicitly relax the requirement for a majority of electable nodes to be available in order to hold an election. This is a dangerous thing to do, and your replication group should rarely (if ever) be configured this way. See Managing a Failure of the Majority for more information.
Once a node has been elected Master, it remains in that role until the replication group has a reason to hold another election. Currently, the only reason why the group will try to elect a new Master is if the current Master becomes unavailable to the group. This can happen because you shutdown the current Master, the current Master crashes due to bugs in your application code, or a network outage causes the current Master to be unreachable by a majority of the electable nodes in your replication group.
In the event of a tie in the number of votes, JE's underlying implementation of the election code will pick the Master. Moreover, the election code will always make a consistent choice when settling a tie. That is, all things being even, the same node will always be picked to win a tied election.
Write transactions can only be performed at the Master. The results of these transactions are replicated to Replicas using a logical replication stream.
Logical replication streams are performed over a TCP/IP connection. The stream contains a description of the logical changes (for example, insert, update or delete) operations that were performed on the database as a result of the transaction commit. Each such replicated change is assigned a group-wide unique identifier called a Virtual Log Sequence Number (VLSN). The VLSN can be used to locate the replicated change in the log files associated with any member of the group. Through the use of the VLSN, each operation described by the replication stream can be replayed at each Replica using an efficient internal replay mechanism.
A consequence of this logical replaying of a transaction is that physical characteristics of the log files contained at the Replicas can be different across the replication group. The data contents of the environments found across the replication group, however, should be identical.
Note that there is a process by which a non-replicated environment can be converted such that it has the log structure and metadata required for replication. See Converting Existing Environments for Replication for more information.

The aim of the European Station Book portal is to set up a unique and reliable international registry of broadband and strong motion stations. Such a registry does not exist so far and has an important role to serve the accelerometric data community, seismologists and engineers. The information can range from basic details such as location and names to acquisition chain description, morphology of the installation site or velocity profiles.
The Station Book interface provides information of all stations that are part of the European Integrated Data Archive (EIDA). This information is gathered from two different sources:
Specifically, the following data is shown in the Station Book interface:
| EIDA Standard Metadata | Edited by Network Operators |
|---|---|
| Network | Network |
| Code | Ownership |
| Time Frame | Station |
| Region, Institutions, Archive and Description | Ownership |
| Type, Class and Restriction | Pictures |
| Station | Geological Unit |
| Code | Morphology |
| Location | Ground type EC8 |
| Time Frame | Vs 30 |
| Name, Affiliation, Country and Description | f0 and Amp(f0) |
| Class and Restriction | Basin Flag |

The Station Book interface is a beta version and the contained data has not been verified. ORFEUS declines any responsibility from any improper use of the information therein represented.
All data within the European Station Book are subject to the EIDA disclaimer.
The Station Book interface was designed and implemented by ORFEUS Data Center (ODC) and ETH Zurich, using funding from NERA. The schema of the SeisComP3's database extension for Station Book was designed by ETH Zurich. The UML data model of this extension can be downloaded here: Station Characterization / Site Characterization.
A significant re-design using open source software was possible by funding from SERA (http://www.sera-eu.org/en/home/; EU H2020 grant agreement No. 730900).
SeisComP3 is an earthquake monitoring software developed by GFZ Potsdam and Gempa GmbH, largely used in Europe and worldwide.

Before looking at any particular SAP Crystal
Reports product or architecture, it is useful to view an abstract reporting
model to identify several logical components of a reporting application.
The report viewer renders a report source into
DHTML and provides interaction controls, such as Search, Zoom, Drill Down,
Export, and Print.
Report sources
A report source is an object used by the viewer
to access the properties of a report. It provides the viewer with the means to
query for report data, page information, and other internal report information.
Report sources are obtained from report servers such as the Crystal Reports
2011 Processing Server and the Crystal Reports 2011 Report Application Server.
Choosing a report server
Although some applications that you develop may
work equally well using the Crystal Reports 2011 Processing Server or the
Crystal Reports 2011 Report Application Server, there are likely to be
situations when the requirements of a particular application mean that you must
use one type of report server instead of the other.
In general, the Crystal Reports 2011 Report
Application Server provides greater functionality over the Crystal Reports 2011
Processing Server, including such features as the ability to schedule reports,
receive alerts, and make runtime changes to reports. However, running reports
through the Crystal Reports 2011 Processing Server provides greater scalability
because once a report on the Crystal Reports 2011 Processing Server has been
viewed by one user, a copy of it is kept on the Crystal Reports Cache Server,
providing quick access to the same report by hundreds of other users.
When to use a
Crystal Reports 2011 Processing Server as your report server
You should choose to access your Crystal
reports through a Crystal Reports 2011 Processing Server when any of these
conditions are true:
You are using the viewers within an SAP
BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform environment and do not have the Crystal Reports 2011
Report Application Server running.
You wish to take advantage of the Crystal
Reports 2011 Processing Server's interaction with the Crystal Reports Cache
Server, so that individual report pages are not generated every time they are
requested.
Your application delivers reports that do
not need to be changed at run-time.
When to use a
Crystal Reports 2011 Report Application Server as your report server
You should choose to access your Crystal
reports through a Crystal Reports 2011 Report Application Server when any of
these conditions are true:
Your application needs to display reports
that it has opened for modification on the Crystal Reports 2011 Report
Application Server.
Your application accesses Crystal report
files (.rpt files) directly from a file system. This
functionality is only provided by an unmanaged Crystal Reports 2011 Report
Application Server.
A report source served by a Crystal Reports
2011 Report Application Server can be used to modify report elements
programatically, using the Report Application Server SDK. For example,
depending on a user’s preferences, your application can apply a template to an
existing report.

Chapter 3 is going more in depth into the different forms of mindfullnes and how to apply some of the techniques. Although not written in these words, but it does lay some of the foundation of the goal of the book. All in small steps.
What did you learn from your 'mindfulness conversation'?
For both myself and my partner it didn't felt as mindfull as that it was practical. Practical as in, the message was clear and the conversation was functional.
Which of the three suggested techniques will you use to sustain your practice?
Walking meditation is a practise I find intriguing and am keen to try it (may or may it not be in the original form as in the book), I can see myself using it while swimming or jogging as well.
On that note I do fancy the Mindfull listening practice as well as I am not that much of a talker. But I do feel like that presenting is something I need to become more comfortable with.

Ruby Classes
a neighborly example
Ruby classes are a useful way to define a set of characteristics and behaviors once for a set of related objects that can be used and re-used any number of times. The blueprint analogy for constructing a house has resonated most with me as we learn about Ruby classes: you create the framework by which all houses will be created and then quickly and efficiently create many houses which have the same behaviors but can still be unique through varying charcteristics. We'll stick with that analogy of a blueprint and examine how a Ruby class can help keep track of a growing Neighborhood.
Unlike in previous weeks where our work was focused entirely on an object or method and everything is done within that limited scope, when we enter the realm of defining classes we need to start considering the scope of variables we use. In this week we begin to use class and instance variables in addition to the local variable. Syntax of these new variables in Ruby is:
local variable - address (usable within the limited scope in which it is defined, typically a method or loop)
instance variable - @address (unique to an instantiated object of a class)
class variable - @@address (unique to that class and shared amongst all instances of the class, or "global within the class" )
global variable - $address (not used this week but relevant for context, this is accessible anywhere within Ruby)
Let's explore how to use class and instance variables with an example. Here we define a class "neighbors" that will create objects to hold information about each of my neighbors and a method to update family members.
class neighbors
@@neighbors = 0
@@neighborhood = "Cherry Hills"
attr_accessor :address
attr_accessor :family_members
attr_accessor :pets
attr_accessor :neighborhood
v
def initialize (address, family_members, pets)
@address = address
@family_members = family_members
@pets = pets
@@neighbors += 1
end
def update_family(family_members)
@family_members = family_members
end
def update_neighborhood(new_neighborhood_name)
@@neighborhood = new_neighborhood_name

In this simple example we have a mix of variables scopes in use (local, instance and class). The local variable usage is limited to holding the arguments passed in during initalization of the object instance (i.e. "address"). Instance variables are used to then attach those arguments to the object and update the object when the update_family method is called with a new set of family_members. Finally the class variables @@neighbors and @@neighborhood are declared once when we set up the class and modified within the code.
The reason we use instance variables for address,family_members and pets is that the information these variables contain will be different for each instance of the class (each household) and so should be tied only to the object that is a part of that class.
The number of neighbors and name of the neighborhood are variables which are common to all households, and though they may change (new houses are built, or we vote to change the name) such a change would propogate immediately to all households and so it makes the most sense to keep them in the parent object of houseolds... which is the class neighbors


The List of National Parks in India is as diverse as the terrain and traditions of India. With a count of 103 diverse National parks in India, India has the third highest number of national parks in Asia, after China and Thailand. There is immense variation in the national parks and wildlife sanctuaries in India including Tiger Reserves, Desert Sanctuary, Bird Sanctuary, Marine Parks and even a Floating National park! For most of the national parks, the best time to visit is from October to March because Monsoon adversely affects accessibility and the summers can be very scorching in the wild. Let's take a look at the top national parks in India worthy of your attention.
Located in a central region of Madhya Pradesh, Kanha National Park is the largest National Park in central India and has been ranked as one of the best parks in Asia. Among the 22 species of large mammals, the royal Bengal tigers are one of the major attractions. One of the best tiger reserves in India, the present-day area stretches over the 940-kilometre square which is divided into two sanctuaries: Hallon and Banjar.
Formerly a hunting ground for the Maharajas of Rewa, the Bandhavgarh National Park is world-renowned as a tiger reserve and it is known to have the highest density of Bengal tigers in the world. The frequent sightings of royal tigers make this national park a must-visit for all wildlife enthusiasts. In 2012, around 44-49 tigers were living in the park. There are more than 22 species of mammals and 250 species of avifauna.
Home to the largest population of the one-horned rhino on earth, Kaziranga National Park is one of India’s national treasures in terms of flora and fauna. Located in the state of Assam in North-Eastern India, its total area is shared by the districts of Nagaon, Golaghat and Karbi Anglong placing it roughly at the centre of the state. Approximately around five hours by road from Guwahati, Kaziranga National Park stands tall as the epitome of successful wildlife conservation in India. In 1985, it was awarded the status of a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Jim Corbett National Park is the oldest national park set amidst the foothills of the Himalayas in the Nainital district of Uttarakhand. Known for housing the endangered Bengal tiger, Corbett National Park is part of the larger Corbett Tiger Reserve. Famous for its wildlife safaris, Jim Corbett National Park has multiple resorts set on the riverside. Home to more than 650 species of rare and migratory birds, it is a haven for bird watchers. The most popular attraction at Corbett National Park is Dhikala, a forest lodge located on the border of Patil Dun Valley, which is known for the stunning location and rich wildlife.Only 180 vehicles are allowed to enter the national park in a day.
Gir National Park and Wildlife Sanctuary is the only remaining home for the Asiatic Lions. Located in Talala Gir in Gujarat, the Sanctuary is a part of Kathiawar- Gir dry deciduous forests ecoregion. Gir National Park is closed from 16 June to 15 October every year and the best time for wildlife spotting is April and May.Gir provides you with the unique experience of visiting a place which almost singularly plays a crucial and defining role in the preservation and sustaining of a certain species. The preservation of these lions was initiated by the Nawab of Junagadh when these were just about to enter the phase of extinction due to hunting.
This is one of the best tiger reserves of the country, known to have "friendly" tigers and chances of sighting one here is reasonably better than many other tiger reserves of India. Along with this Ranthambore has one of the richest flora and fauna making it an absolutely must visit area Nestled in the foothills of Vindhya and Aravali Hills, Ranthambore is famous for its tiger reserves and the variety of flora and fauna found. The Ranthambore National Park, along with the Ranthambore Fort and the surrounding hills and valleys, altogether make Ranthambore a traveller's delight. The place is a boon for wildlife photographers and is perfect for excursions and sightseeing. Safari Rides add to the adventure along with hot Rajasthani picks for shopaholics. With an area of 392 kilometres square, Ranthambore National Park is a natural habitat for a variety of exotic species.
The Periyar National Park in Thekkady, Kerala, is one of the most bio-diverse regions in the world and the best-protected reserve area that one can lay eyes on in India. Famous for its gorgeousness, greenery and stillness, the park is the dwelling place of abundant significant species, including the royal tigers and majestic elephants apart from other reptiles, fishes and birds. This National Park is an amazing coming together of nature, adventure and beauty.
Bharatpur is located in the Braj region of state Rajasthan, around 38 km from Mathura. Bharatpur is famous for the Keoladeo National Park, which habitats over 370 species of animals and birds. It is recognised as one of the most popular birds feeding and breeding grounds. In 1982 the park was marked as a National Park, and later in 1985, it came on the list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. This National Park, locally known as Ghana, has been a winter home for the Siberian Crane; a species on the verge of extinction (considered an endangered bird today).
Situated in Karnataka, Bandipur National Park was once the hunting grounds of the Maharaja of Mysore. It was later established as a reserve in 1974 under Project Tiger and these deciduous forests rich in wildlife have become a popular tourist attraction since then. It is 80 km from Mysore enroute Ooty in Tamil Nadu. Due to a lot of wildlife casualties because of speeding vehicles that go through the park, a ban on traffic between 9 PM to 6 AM has been established to ensure the safety of the animals of the park.
Known for hosting the biggest mangrove forests in the world, Sundarbans National Park is located in West Bengal, India. It is also a Tiger Reserve and a Biosphere reserve that provides a complete nature's circle to the tourist right from 'Royal Bengal tigers' to roaring rivers and beautiful estuaries. Sundarbans National Park is a part of Sundarban delta that is covered with Mangrove Forest and the largest population of the Bengal Tigers. It is a UNESCO world heritage site with a large variety of birds and reptiles including salt-water crocodile.
Great Himalayan National Park is one of India's national parks, which is located in Kullu region of Himachal Pradesh. Surrounded on all the three sides by the Himalayan Mountains, the park is home to diverse wildlife species. The Great Himalayan National Park received the status of a national park in 1999. At present, it is home to more than 375 species of fauna, 31 species of mammals and 181 species of birds. This beautiful location of the national park becomes all the more attractive due to the Deodar and Oak trees.
Manas National Park is a UNESCO Natural World Heritage site, a Project Tiger Reserve, an Elephant Reserve and a Biosphere Reserve in Assam. The only tiger reserve in Assam and also famous for the rare golden langur and the red panda, Manas is one of the best-kept national parks in India.Manas is recognized not only for its rich biodiversity but also for its spectacular scenery and natural landscape which includes a range of forested hills, alluvial grasslands and tropical evergreen forests.

2019 has been "a really positive start to this partnership" with Red Bull + Honda
by Louis ShawRed Bull Racing and Honda are in their first year of what they will hope will be a very successful relationship. They have won races and featured on the podium at a number of Grand Prix's. Christian Horner is very pleased with how things are going and hopes that his team will be genuine contenders next season.
“I think in many respects it's been better than expected. There were a lot of questions as to why we had made the move to Honda," Horner said to Formula1.com.
“I think very quickly, at the first Grand Prix, we achieved a podium. We’ve scored more points than we had at this time last year. All around, reliability has been strong, performance has been getting better and better.
“I think on the chassis side we were affected more than we thought going into the year by the front wing regulation change and Honda have certainly exceeded our expectations in all areas. So, it has been a really very positive start to this partnership."
Many believe that if Honda can continue to develop over the winter, then Red Bull could be a threat to Mercedes and could be the team to end their dominance.


Bent Plume Model User’s Guide¶
- Release
2.1
- Date
Jun 05, 2020
Scripts¶
The class objects and method functions defined in the bent_plume_model
module provide a flexible structure to handle simulations of a multiphase
plume from a discrete source in a flowing ambient environment. The examples
detailed below show how to set up and run bent_plume_model
simulations. Further examples are presented in the following scripts
distributed in the ./bin/bpm
directory with the source code.
Examples¶
This example illustrates the tasks necessary to setup, run, save, and
post-process simulations using the bent_plume_model module. Before
running these examples, be sure to install the TAMOC
package and run
all of the tests in the ./test
directory. The commands below should
be executed in an IPython session. Start IPython by executing:
ipython --pylab
at the command prompt. The --pylab
flag is needed to get the correct
behavior of the output plots.
The first step in any spill simulation is to define the ambient CTD data. The
TAMOC
module ambient provides the tools needed to read in CTD data from
text files and organize it into the netCDF files used by the TAMOC
simulation modules. Examples of how to do this are provided in the
./bin/ambient
directory of the TAMOC distribution. Here, we use the CTD
data created by the TAMOC
test files and stored in the ./test/output
directory. Open a CTD file as follows (path names in this tutorial are from
any subdirectory of the TAMOC
source distribution, e.g.,
./notebooks
):
>>> ctd_file = '../test/output/test_BM54.nc'
>>> ctd = ambient.Profile(ctd_file, chem_names='all')
Once the CTD data are loaded as an ambient.Profile object, a bent_bubble_model object can be initialized:
>>> bpm = bent_plume_model.Model(ctd)
The initial conditions for the release include the depth and discharge characteristics. A few are universal to the simulation and should be specified right away:
>>> x0 = np.array([0., 0., 1000.]) # release location (m)
>>> D = 0.30 # diameter of release region (m)
>>> Vj = 0. # 0 for multiphase plume
>>> phi_0 = -np.pi / 2 # vertical release
>>> theta_0 = 0. # angle to x-axis
>>> Sj = 0. # salinity of jet (psu)
>>> Tj = 273.15 + 30. # temperature of jet (K)
>>> cj = 1. # concentration of passive tracers
>>> tracers = ['tracers'] # tracer names
The remaining initial conditions are the dispersed phases that make up the plume. These should be passed to the bent_plume_model.Model object as a list of bent_plume_model.Particle objects. First, open an empty list, then create bent_plume_model.Particle objects and append them to the list.
>>> particles = []
Gas Bubbles¶
For a blowout, we might expect both gas and oil. Here, we create a few gas bubbles to add to the simulation. The first step is to create a dbm particle object. In this case, we choose a dissolvable particle of natural gas:
>>> composition = ['methane', 'ethane', 'propane', 'oxygen']
>>> mol_frac = [0.93, 0.05, 0.02, 0.0]
>>> gas = dbm.FluidParticle(composition)
Next, we have to get the mass of each component in a single bubble and the
total bubble flux. A helper function is provided in the TAMOC
model called
dispersed_phases.initial_conditions. Here, we use the function to create six
different sized bubbles:
>>> # Initial bubble diameter (m)
>>> de = np.array([0.04, 0.03, 0.02, 0.01, 0.0075, 0.005])
>>> # Total mass flux (kg/s) of gas in each bubble size class
>>> m0 = np.array([0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 1.5, 0.5] )
>>> # Associate spreading ratio (--)
>>> lambda_1 = np.array([0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.9, 0.9, 0.95])
>>> # Append to the disp_phases list
>>> for i in range(len(de)):
m, T, nb, P, Sa, Ta = dispersed_phases.initial_conditions(
ctd, x0[2], gas, mol_frac, m0[i], 2, de[i], Tj)
particles.append(bent_plume_model.Particle(x0[0], x0[1], x0[2],
gas, m, T, nb, lambda_1[i], P, Sa, Ta))
Oil Droplets¶
Following the same procedure as for the gas but with different equations of state, liquid droplets can be added to the simulation. Start, by defining a new set of equations of state. Here, we assume a non-dissolving oil phase:
>>> composition = ['inert']
>>> rho_o = 890. # density in kg/m^3
>>> gamma = 30. # API gravity in deg API
>>> beta = 0.0007 # thermal expansion coefficient in K^(-1)
>>> co = 2.90075e-9 # isothermal compressibility coefficient in Pa^(-1)
>>> oil = dbm.InsolubleParticle(True, True, rho_o, gamma, beta, co)
Then, define the droplet characteristics and append them to the
particles
list as we did for the gas bubbles. Note that all particles go
in the same list and could be in any order:
>>> de = np.array([0.02, 0.01, 0.0075, 0.005, 0.003])
>>> m0 = np.array([1., 2.5, 5., 1., 0.5])
>>> lambda_1 = np.array([0.85, 0.90, 0.95, 0.95, 1.])
>>> for i in range(len(de)):
m, T, nb, P, Sa, Ta = dispersed_phases.initial_conditions(
ctd, x0[2], oil, 1., m0[i], 2, de[i], Tj)
particles.append(bent_plume_model.Particle(x0[0], x0[1], x0[2],
oil, m, T, nb, lambda_1[i], P, Sa, Ta))
Run the Simulation¶
At this point, all of the initial conditions are defined, and we can run the simulation:
>>> dt_max = 60. # maximum time step to take for output (s)
>>> sd_max = 450. # maximum number of nozzle diameters to integrate
>>> bpm.simulate(x0, D, Vj, phi_0, theta_0, Sj, Tj, cj, tracers,
particles, False, dt_max, sd_max)
The above command will echo progress to the screen
Plotting the Model Results¶
Two different methods are provided to plot the data. To get a quick view of the model trajectory and mass of the Lagrangian element during the simulation, use the plot state space method:
>>> bpm.plot_state_space(1)
To see a more comprehensive array of model output, use the plot all variables method:
>>> bpm.plot_all_variables(10)
Saving Model Results¶
The simulation results can be saved to a netCDF file, which can be used to continue analysis within the TAMOC Python package, or an ascii text file for importing to another analysis package, such as Excel or Matlab. To save the data, specify a base output name with relative file path, a path to the CTD data, and a description of the CTD data:
>>> f_name = '../test/output/test_blowout'
>>> ctd_description = 'CTD data from Brooks McCall in file' + \
'./test/output/test_BM54.nc'
>>> bpm.save_sim(f_name + '.nc', ctd_file, ctd_description)
>>> bpm.save_txt(f_name + 'ASCII', ctd_file, ctd_description)

In this dish, the delicate flavour of monkfish is wonderfully spiced with lemongrass and lime.
For the monkfish curry, heat the oil in a large wok until smoking and stir-fry the shallots, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, lime leaves and green chillies for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the volume of the liquid has reduced slightly.
Add the coriander, monkfish and water chestnuts and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. Stir in the fish sauce and lime juice.
Meanwhile, for the Thai jasmine rice, place the rice and lemongrass stalk into a saucepan, cover with the water and simmer gently for 12-15 minutes, or until the rice has absorbed all of the water and is tender. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside for 5 minutes.
To serve, spoon some of the Thai jasmine rice onto each of 4 serving plates. Spoon some monkfish curry on top and sprinkle over the Thai basil leaves.


Abstract
This document describes how to use the win32midi package. It also describes the player that is part of the package. This is a work in progress.
Using the win32midi package is both fun and entertaining. You will be able to play or create music with the soundcard installed on your computer using the excellent Python language.
It is a package to provide access to the MIDI functions available on Microsoft Windows platforms. It provides both low and high level access so that developers, musicians can decide which to use based on their needs.
You need to have the following software installed:
Note that the player is provided with this package and implements some high level functions to play music in Python.
The win32midi module defines operations for calling the Win32 MIDI APIs via Python. Most of the functions will return an error code which can be decoded with midiOutGetErrorTextA. See the descriptions of the functions for details.
The win32midi module defines the following functions:
Queries the MIDI input device, dev, to determine its capablities, which are stored in the MIDIOUTCAPSA structure, cap. The result of the function call is returned.
Returns the description text for the error code Error which is returned by most of the MIDI function calls in this module.
Open the MIDI device specified by the DeviceID. The DeviceID is a number from zero to one less than the value returned by midiInGetNumDevs. Callback is currently not implemented. It should be specified as 0 for no callback. CallbackInstance is currently not implemented and should be specified as 0. Flags should be specified as 0 for no callback mechanism. Other values of Flags are not implemented yet. This function returns a pair of numbers consisting the result of the call and a handle to the MIDI input device if call is successful.
Prepares a MIDI system-exclusive or stream buffer, hdr, for input device specified by hmi.
Cleans up the preparation performed by midiInPrepareHeader for input to device specified by hmi.
Queries the MIDI output device, dev, to determine its capablities, which are stored in the MIDIOUTCAPSA structure, cap. The result of the function call is returned.
Returns the description text for the error code Error which is returned by most of the MIDI function calls in this module.
Returns a pair of numbers consisting of the result of the call and the current volume of a MIDI output device specified by the handle, hmo. The low-order word is the left-channel volume while the high-order word is the right channel setting. 0x0000 is silence. 0xFFFF is full volume.
Sends a system-exclusive MIDI message stored in the MIDIHDR structure, hdr to the MIDI output device specified by hmo. Result of the call is returned.
Open the MIDI device specified by the DeviceID. The DeviceID is a number from zero to one less than the value returned by midiOutGetNumDevs. Callback is currently not implemented. It should be specified as 0 for no callback. CallbackInstance is currently not implemented and should be specified as 0. Flags should be specified as 0 for no callback mechanism. Other values of Flags are not implemented yet. This function returns a pair of numbers consisting the result of the call and a handle to the MIDI output device if call is successful.
Prepares a MIDI system-exclusive or stream buffer, hdr, for output device specified by hmo.
Turns off all the notes on all MIDI channels for the MIDI output device specified by the handle, hmo.
Set the current volume of a MIDI output device specified by the handle, hmo to the value, Volume. The low-order word of Volume is the left-channel volume while the high-order word is the right channel setting. 0x0000 is silence. 0xFFFF is full volume. The result of the call is returned.
Sends a short MIDI message, Msg, to the MIDI output device specified by hmo.
Cleans up the preparation performed by midiOutPrepareHeader for output to device specified by hmo.
The player module defines simple high level APIs for playing music with the Windows MIDI functions via Python.
The player module defines the following features.
Exception raised when an operation fails for a specific reason. The exception argument is a string describing the reason of the failure.
The Player class creates objects that provide the high level methods to play music in the API. Creates a Player object that is associated with MIDI device number dev.
The methods are listed below.
This method set the Instrument for playing music. It set the instrument used on the channel, chan to the instrument with GM MIDI patch number, num. The following table shows the instrument assigned in the GM MIDI with their patch number.

Sets the tempo of the music to be played to val. In other words, the music will be played to val beats per minute.
Sets the volume of the synthesizer to the values left, for left speaker, and right, for right speaker.
Gets the volumes of the synthesizer. The return value is a tuple, (left, right), for left and right speakers repectively.
Plays the note, num, at velocity, vel in channel, chan. num is the MIDI note as defined in the MIDI specification, with Middle C at 60. To indicate a rest, use 99 for num. vel is the velocity of playing the note, the higher the louder the note is played. chan is the MIDI channel to play the note in.
Plays the chord, chord, at velocity, vel in channel, chan. chord is a list of MIDI notes, as defined in the MIDI specification, with Middle C at 60. To indicate a rest, use 99 for the value of the note. vel is the velocity of playing the note, the higher the louder the note is played. chan is the MIDI channel to play the chord in.
This method plays a piece of music defined with the melody notes in the noteStruct and the chord in the chordStruct. The noteStruct is a tuple with the first element to be a list of notes as defined in the table below and the second element to be a list of timing information. The chordStruct is defined similarly but each note is replaced by a list of notes that made up the chord to be played at that instance.
The following is a table that defines the notation to play the respective musical notes. The notation is designed as a mnemonic such that the first digit indicates the octave relative to the Middle C, while the second digit indicates the note within each octave with C as 1, D as 2 and so on. Sharps are indicated as half note higher, for example C# as 1.5
The table shows only notation defined for the definition of melody notes. For chord notes, the notes definitions are the same but each note is played at one octave lower. In other words, the C below Middle C is defined as 1 instead of -11. This is to reduce the number of typing for entering the chord notes.
| Octave # | C | C# | D | D# | E | F | F# | G | G# | A | A# | B |
| -5 | -51 | -51.5 | -52 | -52.5 | -53 | -54 | -55.5 | -55 | -55.5 | -56 | -56.5 | -57 |

For entering the timing information, the table below shows the simplified notation used for the different notes.
| Note | Notation |
| Whole | 1 |
| Half | 2 |
| Quarter | 4 |
| Eighth | 8 |
| Sixteenth | 16 |
| 32nd | 32 |
| 64nd | 64 |
For dotted notes, a .1 is appended to the notation. For example, a dotted quarter note will be indicated as 4.1

For data visualization it is, of course, necessary to be able to access data. For now we will work with static data we hard-code in our HTML file. Inside the script tag, define a JavaScript array:
const data = [10, 12, 15, 18, 25];
We can bind this data to HTML elements using the .data(data) method after the selection.
d3.selectAll("p").data(data).append("text").text(" 123 ")
So now if we have the same number of items in our array as we have paragraphs, each of the paragraphs get its text set.
And that code is also executed here. So we have "123" behind all p-tags. But what if we don't want to create the elements beforehand? That's where the enter-function comes into place:
Usually we don’t want to create our elements beforehand so that they match the number of data-items in our array. That’s why d3 provides the .enter() method that tells the browser what to do if there are not enough HTML-elements for the number of data items. ( .enter() will be explained more thoroughly later in the tutorial)
Consequently, we can use the following code to create paragraphs on the fly if we do not already have enough in our document.
d3.select("#enterarea").selectAll("samples").data(data).enter().append("p").text("Sample text");
This is an important concept in D3, as it lets us select elements which do not yet exist. We can try it: Push the button, and you can see, that we create for each data element one text:
#enterarea
But we also want our changes to be dependent on the different data-items. For this we can use functions, a concept you should be familiar with from other languages. In D3 we often use anonymous functions that only differ from normal functions by not having a name, and which thus cannot be reused.
d3.select("#enterarea").selectAll("samples").data(data).enter().append("text").text(d => d);
The known equivalent to this would be:
d3.select("#enterarea").selectAll("samples").data(data).enter().append("text").text(function(d) {return d;});
The parameter d is provided as first argument to anonymous functions by D3 and holds the data elements. Optionally, you can also pass the index of the data-item as second parameter to your functions.
d3.select("#enterarea").selectAll("samples").data(data).enter().append("text").text((d,i) => i)

Abstract:
Query performance is what it is all about. SQL Server 2014/2016 now has the new in-memory functionality that takes a completely different approach to data access and manipulation. This session will consolidate the relevant information from all these sources so the production DBA/Developer will be able to understand, create, use, maintain, and trouble-shoot in-memory table functionality. This session will also examine several demo scripts showing performance gains using the in-memory tables with and without columnstore indexes over equivalent disk based tables. This session is all about when and how to apply in-memory tables in a production environment. After this session you will 1. Understand what in-memory tables are and how to create and maintain them including their limitations 2. Be able to identify performance gains over equivalent disk back tables 3. Comprehend the new data monitoring needed for in-memory table

wrassp: Interface to the 'ASSP' Library
A wrapper around Michel Scheffers's 'libassp' (<http://libassp.sourceforge.net/>).
The 'libassp' (Advanced Speech Signal Processor) library aims at providing
functionality for handling speech signal files in most common audio formats
and for performing analyses common in phonetic science/speech science. This
includes the calculation of formants, fundamental frequency, root mean
square, auto correlation, a variety of spectral analyses, zero crossing
rate, filtering etc. This wrapper provides R with a large subset of
'libassp's signal processing functions and provides them to the user in a
(hopefully) user-friendly manner.

Wisdom is knowing the right path to take. Integrity is taking it.
Congratulations, you have created a new Wisdom application. It's your first step on the "Path to Wisdom". But why do you see this page? Let's have a look.
There is a controller having defined a route handling browser requests to the current URI using the GET method:
@Route(method = HttpMethod.GET, uri = "/") public Result welcome() { /* ... */ }
Wisdom has invoked the sample.WelcomeController#welcome
action
method to obtain the current page:
return ok(render(welcome));
An action is a function that handles the incoming HTTP request, and returns
the HTTP result to send back to the web client. Here we send a 200 OK
response, using a template
to fill its content. The template is defined in the src/main/resources/templates/welcome.html
file and handled using Thymeleaf. That's
it!
Wisdom is based on Apache Maven. In addition to provide a robust build support, it makes building Wisdom application on continuous integration server easy as pie.
Wisdom embeds the most used tools to develop Web Applications such as less and coffeescript. Wisdom also comes with everything you need to test your applications. Build modern applications you trust!
Wisdom is designed to make Web development fun for Java developer. We propose a development model simple, fluent, and amazingly efficient.
Okay, it's Maven, but it's Maven the good way. Thanks to the Wisdom Watch Mode, just save your files and check the result immediately.
Wisdom is based on OSGi™. Don't run away! We make it so easy that you won't even realize. Wisdom promotes modularity and all the Wisdom internal components can be substituted, even at runtime.
Wisdom is based on rock-solid technologies, making you application ready for production. It's not all, you can deploy Wisdom applications on any Cloud provider

TRAVELLER A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1997 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): ***
Bill Paxton, who is one of today's better character actors, has wanted all 22 years of his professional life to produce a movie in which he could also star. TRAVELLER is the realization of that dream and a perfect vehicle to showcase his acting skills.
Bill Paxton is a hard working actor who has had parts in almost fifty movies. Although he has only recently been able to receive star billing, as he did in TWISTER, he, nevertheless, generally raises the quality of any movie with which he is associated. (The main exception was has part in THE EVENING STAR. But, everyone was terrible in it.) His role in ONE FALSE MOVE and in ALIENS are the first ones that brought his talents to my attention. Since then I have seen him in numerous pictures with his small role in THE LAST SUPPER being my most recent favorite.
The travellers of the title belong to a close knit but large family whose members intermarry and who make their livelihood scamming the public. The movie TRAVELLERS is a character study set within the context of this semi-mythical group. (The press kit gives their history as people known in Ireland as Tinkers, but who call themselves Travellers. It then goes on to relate them to the gypsies. To what extent this group really exists in the United States is unclear, but the accuracy of the story has no bearing on the movie's appeal.)
As the story opens, honest faced Bokky (Bill Paxton) goes up to a house in a working class neighborhood in the South. He tells them that he has this top quality load of driveway sealer left over from a job up the street. He says he saw the holes in their driveway so he thought he would give them the sealer if they would pay just him a couple of hundred for his time. After he finishes and drives away, the rains come and begin to wash off all of the worthless recycled motor oil he has spread on their driveway.
After one of the travellers dies, the rest of that family of travellers take their trailers back to their home camp in the backwoods of North Carolina. The wise Boss Jack (Luke Askew) runs the base camp and arranges the marriages, usually at age sixteen. The traveller who died was an outcast because he had married outside the family. His son Pat, played by Mark Wahlberg, who was the creepy killer in FEAR, comes back with his father's corpse but wants to stay after the funeral so he can learn to be a traveller too. The travellers consider Pat a half-breed and therefore unwelcome, but Bokky takes pity on him and decides to mentor him.
As Bokky teaches Pat the trade, they run into Double D (James Gammon), who is a traveller from a different family.
Gammon plays a grizzled guy who looks like a skid row bum. Gammon, who has played small parts in over fifty films, gives a carefully understated performance, as does the rest of the cast. TRAVELLER moves slowly, but never drags. It just takes its time.
Eventually, Bokky loses his heart to a bartender named Jean (Julianna Margulies from PARADISE ROAD), but I'll not give away where that leads or what becomes of Bokky's and Pat's careers. Actually, none of that is important. This is a story not about what happens but about the characters themselves and with Paxton's marvelous performance, a story worth paying attention to.
Cinematographer Jack Green from THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY takes his first hand at directing in TRAVELLER as well as doing the cinematography -- both are easy going. Nothing harsh, well not much anyway.
My favorite minor character was Danielle Wiener as Pat's would-be girlfriend Shane. Since Boss Jack doesn't like Pat and since Shane is his daughter, Pat's chances with her are not promising. Wiener has this sweet and innocent smile and twinkling eyes that make her part compelling without many spoken lines.
The honky-tonk music of the film is pure fun. Producer Paxton describes the music as a variety of styles of the type you would hear on your radio while driving through the South. When he finished filming his movie, he knew the kinds of music he wanted, but he was completely out of money by then. His old friend Seymour Stein, a record producer, liked the raw film footage so much that he arranged to have a bunch of great young acts record the songs for the movie. The result adds energy, poignancy, and humor to the picture.
Come on in and sit a spell, for TRAVELLER is a slow moving but entertaining yarn. Without any special effects or computer enhancements, the movie contents itself with weaving a tale full of characters worth caring about. A small picture certainly, but a delightful one.
TRAVELLER runs 1:41. It is rated R for sexual situations, language and a couple of violent scenes. The film would be fine for teenagers, but not any younger. I recommend this simple story to you and give it ***.
**** = A must see film. *** = Excellent show. Look for it. ** = Average movie. Kind of enjoyable. * = Poor show. Don't waste your money. 0 = Totally and painfully unbearable picture.
