Portable PRECISE tracing collector for C++ (as oposed to popular Hans Boehm CONSERVATIVE collector). It should not mess other data with collected pointers ! And thats a feat! Smieciuch defines smart pointer classes which behave like normal C/C++ pointers
concerning "Lock-Free" and "Wait-Free" algorithms and data structures. These techniques allow concurrent update of shared data structures without resorting to critical sections protected by operating system managed locks.
lists potential future Earth impact events that the JPL Sentry System has detected based on currently available observations. Click on the object designation to go to a page with full details on that object.
Sophie's raison d'être is to enable people to create robust, elegant rich-media, networked documents without recourse to programming, it promises to open up the world of multimedia authoring to a wide range of creative people.
provides a software development platform that allows developers to take advantage of a new generation of high performance processors. These new processors, including GPUs, the IBM Cell, and other multi-core processors
online payment system that sidesteps credit cards completely. Unlike PayPal, Dwolla doesn't take a percentage of the transaction. It only asks for $0.25 whether it's moving $1 or $1,000.
a freely available commonsense knowledgebase and natural-language-processing toolkit which supports many practical textual-reasoning tasks over real-world documents right out-of-the-box (without additional statistical training)
a tool that automatically converts existing Java-language code into Microsoft Visual C# for developers who want to move existing applications to the .NET Framework.
"Have you had the privilege of sitting on pins and needles with information that has the potential to revolutionize all genre of PC gaming" (to late see CELL)
a Framework written in Java (plattform independent). It helps developers to find bugs or designerrors by showing the Objectreferences in an easy way. For Example during deep-Cloning of Objects in Java its very hard to test and proof the functionality of t

The Starflight III project is composed of fans and several of the SF/SF2 authors. We are making no profit from this game, as we are distributing it for free and creating it in our own spare time.
a modular, plugin-driven peer-to-peer client framework which is designed with true multi-network downloads in mind. It can be used directly via the built-in shell functionality, or via external user interfaces.
Window Switch is a tool which allows you to display running applications on other computers than the one you start them on, programs can be imitated remotely Once an application has been started via a winswitch server, it can be displayed on other machines running winswitch client, as required. Interestingly they seem to support server service with a pay option (security may be a concern)
a tool for providing the 'atomic' keyword for C/C++ (gcc, x86, Linux only yet). With TARIFA you may replace hard-to-understand lock (mutex) constructs or improve coarse-grained locking solutions by employing regions of code that appear to be executed atom

The KDE-Windows port an ongoing progress in native porting of the KDE applications to MS Windows. Currently the Windows versions starting with Windows XP are supported.
Natural Interaction will let computer tools capture and understand ideas that are today captured in pencil on scraps of paper. This capability can introduce design capture into the earliest stages of the design process and radically shorten the design cyc
a ruby on rails platform, a completely web-based rails development and deployment environment, and hosted on Amazon's EC2, so it's also completely virtual.
