A library for handling page faults in user mode. A page fault occurs
when a program tries to access to a region of memory that is currently
not available. Catching and handling a page fault is a useful
technique for implementing:
* pageable virtual memory,
* memory-mapped access to persistent databases,
* generational garbage collectors,
* stack overflow handlers,
* distributed shared memory,
AnyEvent::Task is a pre-fork-on-demand server (AnyEvent::Task::Server) combined
with a persistent worker-pooled client (AnyEvent::Task::Client).
In a nutshell, a synchronous worker process is forked off by a server whenever
a client asks for one. The client keeps as many of these workers around as it
wants and delegates tasks to them asynchronously.
Module::Inspector provides a wrapper around various modules used to read and
examine the different parts of a Perl module distribution tarball, and can
inspect a module unrolled on disk, in a repository checkout, or just look
directly inside a tarball. It also rovides a companion to the Class::Inspector
API for accessing information on class after installation.
When using Moose::Role, a class which provides a method a role provides will
silently override that method. This can cause strange, hard-to-debug errors when
the role's methods are not called. Simple use MooseX::Role::Strict instead of
Moose::Role and overriding a role's method becomes a composition-time failure.

JCalendar is a Java date chooser bean for graphically picking a date. JCalendar
is composed of several other Java beans, a JDayChooser, a JMonthChooser and a
JYearChooser. All these beans have a locale property, provide several icons
(Color 16x16, Color 32x32, Mono 16x16 and Mono 32x32) and their own locale
property editor. So they can easily be used in GUI builders.
A tool that "multiply imputes" missing data in a single cross-section
(such as a survey), from a time series (like variables collected for
each year in a country), or from a time-series-cross-sectional data set
(such as collected by years for each of several countries).
sn a small news system for small sites serving perhaps a few dozen
newsgroups, and with a slow connection to the internet; similar to
Leafnode. The target user is a home or SOHO with a single modem
connection to the Internet, maybe running IP masq or similar, and
serving a few workstations.
RC5 is a fast block cipher designed by Ronald Rivest for RSA Data
Security (now RSA Security) in 1994. It is a parameterized algorithm
with a variable block size, a variable key size, and a variable number
of rounds. This particular implementation is 32 bit. As such, it is
suggested that a minimum of 12 rounds be performed.
The Link Grammar Parser is a syntactic parser of English, based on link
grammar, an original theory of English syntax. Given a sentence, the system
assigns to it a syntactic structure, which consists of a set of labeled links
connecting pairs of words. The parser also produces a "constituent"
representation of a sentence (showing noun phrases, verb phrases, etc.).
pp2html creates a set of HTML files for a foilset based on a simple textfile
slide_text. Due to its formatting features and the capability of creating
navigation, table of contents and index pages, pp2html is also a suitable tool
for writing online documentation.
pp2latex creates a LaTeX file from a PerlPoint input file.
