Programming Languages

-

binary -During my studies and personal work, I've used a variety of programming -languages. Here is an overview in chronologic order with some comments:

-
    -
  • -

    QBasic. *

    -It was the first language that I've learned. I've enjoyed hacking -around in it a little, but never got far with it due to lack of -learning resources.
    • -
  • -

    C++. *****

    -This was actually my second language to learn, which meant a big leap. -My first contact was at the age of 15, though I hadn't used it -extensively until I started studying. In the past years, I've been -developing most of my personal and professional work in C++. It's a beast and should be -only handled with care.
    • -
  • -

    Java. ***

    -My first contact with Java was at the university. It does provide help -by managed memory and a big standard library. -
    • -
  • -

    Haskell. *

    -This language was a love-hate relationship for me. I hated it for being -so difficult to grasp for the first time and loved it for inspiring me -to approach problem solving from a differnt angle, even when working -with non-functional languages.
    • -
  • -

    Prolog. **

    -Nice iterative language especially for the field of artificial -intelligence.
    • -
  • -

    C. *****

    -C is clean and flat. It is still the most successful structured language and will most -probably still be in use for many years to come, even if it's just "under the hood".
    • -
  • -

    Assembler. **

    -Been there, done that.
    • -
  • -

    C#. ***

    -It feels like the more mature language based on a managed -architecture, especially in combination with Visual Studio, developing -in it is a breeze. The .Net framework is mostly a well structured and -complete environment to work in.
    • -
  • -

    Python. ****

    -It's my personal favourite language for many fields. It's best suited -for rapid prototyping, which fits perfectly into my method of working.
    • -
  • -

    Go. *

    -Google has developed an interesting language with the goal of providing a general programming language including a garbage collector and efficient methods for concurrency handling. It's a fun language and shows some interesting concepts including a more dynamic approach on object orientation.
    • -
  • -
    * show my level of expertise in the language -

Operating Systems

-
    -

  • GNU/Linux

    -Ubuntu, openSUSE, Red Hat and CentOS.
    • -

  • Microsoft Windows

    -Windows 95/98/2000/XP/Vista/7.
    • -

  • AmigaOS

    -Been a while...
    • -
-

Environments

-
    -
  • -

    GVim & gedit

    -These are my general purpose editors for quick editing on all platforms -and have become my prefered editors when working in an IDE-free environment.
    • -
  • -

    Visual Studio

    -It's my first choice for C#, C++ and C programming on Windows. It has -proven to be a feature-rich, reliable and customisable IDE with great debugger integration.
    • -
  • -

    Eclipse

    -It's what I prefer when developing in Java and, to some extent, when -working in C++ on Linux. It has a great plugin system and is therefore -extendable to be used with a big variety of languages.

These programs try to predict critical situations and alarm ATC -controllers ahead of time. Examples include Short Term Conflict Alert -(STCA) systems, Minimum Safe Altitude Warning (MSAW) systems, and Area -Proximity Warning (APW) systems. STCA systems predict the flight paths -of different aircraft and issue a warning up to two minutes ahead of a -potential separation violation. MSAW and APW systems predict single -aircraft trajectories and issue a warning if there is a significant -risk that the aircraft comes too close to a terrain feature, -obstacle, or prohibited region. - -While the basic trajectory prediction is always based on the same -principles, the generation of warning messages is highly dependent on -local conditions. The quality of the sensor coverage dictates aircraft -separation rules. Local geography may require trajectories that would -normally be avoided. Availability of flight plan information can help -to recognize potentially dangerous situations as already anticipated -and under control. As an example, if a flight plan contains a cleared -altitude of 300 flight levels, the aircraft is expected to level off -its ascent there, and hence will not conflict with an aircraft at an -altitude of 320 flight levels, even if a naive projection based on the -current rate of ascent does indicate a potential conflict. - -Currently, Safety Net systems use standard requirement engineering to -identify the necessary conditions for each particular -deployment. These requirements are then translated manually into -program code. However, this process is tedious and error-prone, and -the resulting code can be rather complex and hard to maintain. Each -modification requires extensive re-validation of the software. - -The aim of this thesis is the development and implementation of a -language that can express the necessary conflict for an ATC Safety Net -in symbolic, human-readable form. Depending on the outcome of an -initial feasibility study, the language should be either interpreted -by the Safety Net System, or automatically compiled into C++ code. - -For this purpose, first the necessary attributes and relations have to -to be identified. Then a proper rule semantics (prioritised, weighted, -non-monotonic/exception-based...) has to be determined, and finally an -initial prototype language needs to be designed and implemented. - ----- -Comsoft is a medium-sized, privately owned company located in -Karlsruhe/Durlach.

Where Are The Old Tutorials?

- questionmark -

Despite the elementary nature of my tutorials, they've created a suprisingly steady stream - of traffic for my site. 

Today, -I believe that tutorials can cause more harm than solve problems. -A tutorial will not replace a well done research, a good book and -proper education. It will, however, in many cases promote quick and -often unsafe solutions without a real understanding of the underlying -material.
