- is written by John Franks in C and runs under UNIX. GN serves two
- protocols gopher0 and HTTP/1.0 used by WWW clients. GN recognizes the
- protocol from the request and responds appropriately. For further
- information see `http://hopf.math.nwu/' or `gopher://hopf.math.nwu', or
- contact `john@math.nwu.edu'. You can FTP it from `ftp.acns.nwu.edu' in

- * GAMMA: a Magnetic Resonance Simulation Library
-
- GAMMA is an object oriented package for magnetic resonance simulation by
- numerical density matrix calculation. It is written in C++.
-
- The package contains definitions for complex data types such as
- matrices, operators or spin systems, and appropriate mathematical
- operations on them. You can write a simulation program in a natural way
- that parallels the abstract formalism used for a theoretical
- description. The simulation environment is fully user expandable.
-
- The library is currently available under the GPL license on
- `hertz.ethz.ch'.

- * Moldy, A Molecular Dynamics Simulation Program
-
- Moldy is a molecular dynamics simulation program written by Keith
- Refson. He says, "... I have a slightly unusual rationale for using the
- GPL ..."
-
- For the last few hundred years or so there has been a principle
- which forms part of the ethos of scientific endeavour. It is that
- the fruits of one's research should be openly published so that
- others may learn, use and build upon them. Results may be
- independently checked by other researchers, contributing to the
- reliability which distinguishes science from other forms of
- knowledge. And the benefits are available to the general good. Of
- course such a high ethical principle is not always honoured,
- scientists being human and subject to the usual commercial
- pressures. But it remains as an ideal to strive for.
-
- I have placed my molecular dynamics simulation program, called Moldy
- under the GPL because I find the copyleft conditions in close
- agreement with this spirit of scientific freedom and co-operation.
- It is a research tool for performing atomistic computer simulations
- of solids and liquids, and therefore not of widespread use outside
- the discipline. I wish to make it available to any scientist who
- wishes to use it, to encourage them to add to the program and to
- ensure that any improvements are as free as the original code.
-
- Moldy come with a manual in LaTeX or PostScript format; it runs on Unix,
- VMS and MS-DOS systems. The sources are available by anonymous FTP from
- `earth.ox.ac.uk'.
-
- * Map: the Interactive Network Map
-
- Map, the Interactive Network Map is a part of a network management
- system. It presents a map of a network and allows point and click
- interrogation of network equipment. It can be used on TCP/IP and
- CHAOSnet protocol stacks and implements basic host polling as well as
- SNMP. Map was written by Michael A. Patton and comes with some
- documentation. Map is available by anonymous FTP from `ftp.lcs.mit.edu'
- in the directory `nets'.
-
- * SIPP, the SImple Polygon Processor
-
- SIPP is a library for creating photorealistic renderings of 3D scenes. A
- scene is built up of objects which can be transformed with rotation,
- translation and scaling. The objects form hierarchies where each object
- can have arbitrarily many subobjects and subsurfaces. A surface is a
- number of connected polygons which are rendered with either Phong,
- Gouraud or flat shading. The library supports texture mapping with
- textures in up to 3-dimensions and automatic interpolation of texture
- coordinates. A scene can be illuminated by an arbitrary number of light
- sources. The light from some of them are capable of casting shadows of
- objects. You can FTP it from `isy.liu.se' (130.236.1.3) in file
- `/pub/sipp/sipp-3.1.tar.gz'. For more information, contact the author
- Jonas Yngvesson, `jonas-y@isy.liu.se' Updated: May 94
-
- * Oaklisp 1.2
-
- Oaklisp 1.2, written by Kevin Lang and Barak Pearlmutter, is a fast
- portable tasty object-oriented scheme with first class types. You can
- FTP it from `ftp.cs.cmu.edu' from directory `/user/bap/oaklisp/' in
- files `oaklisp.tar.gz' and `manuals.{tex,dvi,PS}.tar.gz'. Further
- information from `bap@learning.scr.siemens.com'.

- design trajectory--from circuit level, down to layout and a working chip.
-
- It is available as free software, with full source code, and is known to
- run on Linux, HP and Sun workstations under the MIT X Window System.

- * Free Widget Foundation Announces Widgets
-
- The Free Widget Foundation (FWF) is a grass-roots, all volunteer effort
- to create a set of powerful, flexible, freely-accessible X graphical
- user-interface modules (widgets). Since its start in 1990, the FWF
- release has grown to over 40 widgets, now used in several popular X
- applications. The FWF is not related to the Free Software Foundation,
- but it shares our goal of making high-quality software freely
- redistributable.
