nekobee is a DSSI soft synth plugin that emulates the sound of the
TB-303 Bassline. It is not an exact copy; rather than make it "just like
the real thing", the design concentrates on modelling the circuitry and
was adjusted by comparing the sounds achievable with it to those heard
on classic acid house tracks. It includes a switchable square/saw wave
VCO, 24dB/octave VCF, an adjustable decay time for the VCF, a fixed
decay time for the VCA, and an interesting bit of circuitry around the
"Accent" control.
This package includes two programs for adjusting sound mixers: xmixer, which
uses the Athena toolkit, and xgmixer, based on GTK+. From the README:
Features:
* For every device which is supported by the sound card you can
change the volume via a slider. Unsupported devices are not shown.
* Select the input device(s) for recording.
* On startup a configuration file is read which restores device
settings.
* With a menu option you can save the current settings for the next
start up.
* Hide devices which you don't want to see.
* Batch support - just read and evaluate the settings in the
configuration file.
Filebench is quick to set up and use unlike many of the commercial
benchmarks which it can emulate. It is also a handy tool for
micro-benchmarking storage subsystems and studying the relationships of
complex applications such as relational databases with their storage
without having to incur the costs of setting up those applications,
loading data and so forth.
Filebench uses loadable workload personalities in a common framework to
allow easy emulation of complex applications upon file systems. The
workload personalities use a Workload Definition Language to define the
workload's model.
Httperf is a tool for measuring web server performance. It provides a flexible
facility for generating various HTTP workloads and for measuring server
performance.
The focus of httperf is not on implementing one particular benchmark but on
providing a robust, high-performance tool that facilitates the construction of
both micro- and macro-level benchmarks. The three distinguishing characteristics
of httperf are its robustness, which includes the ability to generate and
sustain server overload, support for the HTTP/1.1 and SSL protocols, and its
extensibility to new workload generators and performance measurements.
NoSQL Benchmark (nb) is a multi-threaded benchmark tool for evaluating main
database performance metrics using OLTP-alike benchmarking against
a specified workload.
Features include:
* benchmarking types: unlimited, time limited or maximum thread limited
* different threads creation policies: at once or interleaved
* key distribution supported: uniform, gaussian
* key types supported: string, u32, u64
* CSV report file generation supported (for future plot generation)
* single configuration file
* workload tests are specified in percents against a total request count
* supported database drivers: tarantool, leveldb (redis, memcached planned).
* plotter tool (CSV to GNU Plot generation)
Slowloris both helps identify the timeout windows of a HTTP server or Proxy
server, can bypass httpready protection and ultimately performs a fairly low
bandwidth denial of service. It has the added benefit of allowing the server
to come back at any time (once the program is killed), and not spamming the
logs excessively. It also keeps the load nice and low on the target server, so
other vital processes don't die unexpectedly, or cause alarm to anyone who is
logged into the server for other reasons.
The main audience using slowloris is of course a system administrators wanting
to measure their webserver's performance and vulnerability.
The CuraEngine is a C++ console application for 3D printing GCode generation.
It has been made as better and faster alternative to the old Skeinforge engine.
The CuraEngine is pure C++ and uses Clipper from
http://www.angusj.com/delphi/clipper.php. There are no external dependencies
and Clipper is included in the source code without modifications.
This is just a console application for GCode generation. For a full graphical
application look at https://github.com/daid/Cura with is the graphical
frontend for CuraEngine.
The CuraEngine can be used separately or in other applications.
Feel free to add it to your application. But to take note of the License.
Qfsm is a graphical editor for finite state machines written in C++ using Qt.
Finite state machines are a model to describe complex objects or systems in
terms of the states they may be in. In practice they can used to create
regular expressions, scanners or other program code.
Current features of Qfsm are:
- Creation, editing, loading and saving of binary and ASCII machines
- Drawing of states and transitions
- Binary and ASCII condition codes
- Setting of a start state and end states
- Zooming
- Cut, copy & paste inside Qfsm
- Printing of diagrams
- Multiple windows
- Integrity check
- Interactive simulation
- AHDL/VHDL export
- State table export (Latex, HTML)
SCOTCH is a software package and libraries for graph, mesh and hypergraph
partitioning, static mapping, and sparse matrix block ordering.
Its purpose of Scotch is to apply graph theory, with a divide and conquer
approach, to scientific computing problems such as graph and mesh partitioning,
static mapping, and sparse matrix ordering, in application domains ranging from
structural mechanics to operating systems or bio-chemistry.
The SCOTCH distribution is a set of programs and libraries which implement the
static mapping and sparse matrix reordering algorithms developed within the
SCOTCH project.
