OSF/Motif Programmer's Guide


Book Description

Explaining how to write programs with OSF/Mofit, this book provides conceptual information and examples to guide programmers in using widgets, gadgets, the window manager, and the User Interface Language (UIL).




A Practical Guide To X Window Programming


Book Description

A Practical Guide to X Window Programming is a basic guide that takes readers step by step through developing applications using X-Windows. The book covers the Xt Intrinsics portion of the X-Window system in detail and discusses the MIT Athena and OSF/Motif Widget Sets that are used in many of the examples. Topics covered include C programming fundamentals, text handling using X, fonts, event handling in Xt, extending the Widget Sets (building on Field Editor Widget), designing and constructing an application, building menus, printing help, OSF/Motif (including the window arranger) and interclient communication. Three extensive appendices are included: Widgets, Classing, and Exported Functions; Quick Xt Reference Guide (X11R4); and Quick Guide to OSF/Motif Widgets. Any applications designer interested in developing applications with Xt will find this book a valuable and enlightening resource.

An X/Motif Programmer's Primer


Book Description

An X Motif Programmers Primer is designed for novice Windows programmers involved in application development. Rather than attempting to give total coverage of X-Motif, this book introduces a manageable subset. However, it does this within the context of a rigorous development and design technique. The aim is to equip the student with the skills of program design and software development in the context of realistic applications.







Advanced Motif Programming Techniques


Book Description

Ideal for programmers who have already done some application development in Motif, and who are looking to broaden and deepen their skills and understanding, this guide and reference explains what each tool/technique is intended for and when it should be used, and shows how X and Motif mechanisms can be used in conjunction with each other, rather than in isolation.

New Computing Techniques In Physics Research Ii - Proceedings Of The Second International Workshop On Software Engineering Artificial Intelligence And Expert Systems In High Energy And Nuclear Physics


Book Description

A vivid example of the growing need for frontier physics experiments to make use of frontier technology is in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and related themes.By AI we are referring here to the use of computers to deal with complex objects in an environment based on specific rules (Symbolic Manipulation), to assist groups of developers in the design, coding and maintenance of large packages (Software Engineering), to mimic human reasoning and strategy with knowledge bases to make a diagnosis of equipment (Expert Systems) or to implement a model of the brain to solve pattern recognition problems (Neural Networks). These techniques, developed some time ago by AI researchers, are confronted by down-to-earth problems arising in high-energy and nuclear physics. However, similar situations exist in other 'big sciences' such as space research or plasma physics, and common solutions can be applied.The magnitude and complexity of the experiments on the horizon for the end of the century clearly call for the application of AI techniques. Solutions are sought through international collaboration between research and industry.
