ACE is a interpreter (A C Emulator) for a subset of standard ANSI C that runs on the PIC family of microprocessors.

It is aimed for the same category of applications as the Basic Stamp system produced by Parallax Inc.

Support is built in for the debouncing of inputs and the control of RC servos. Two of the ports are internally programmed to control 2 standard RC servos.

There are about 45 PIC registers available to the user in the free demonstation version for the 4MHz PIC 16F84. This version executes about 1200 lines of C code per second whilst controlling two servos.

Here are some key features of "ACE":

· Very little knowledge of the microprocessor is needed.
· Program in the worlds most important standard programming language. You will never need to learn another language.
· Brilliant debugging assistance.
· Compile your programs to run under Windows using a free C++ compiler. Graphical aids are provided to display the state of output ports and servos. A simple C program can be written to drive the input ports depending on the PIC output and thus close the loop. This makes debugging real time programs really easy.
· The system can be seamlessly integrated with a number of free or public domain program editors. In addition to source code highlighting this provides automatic jumping to the the correct source code line if an error report is clicked.

Ace Screensaver is a software that provides you an easy way to create and configure photo screensavers the way you like.

Ace Screensaver offers the ability to scale picture sizes, choose to cycle your pictures at random, adjust the time between each image, set the background color, create a list of your own transitions from the 80 available transitional effects, and adjust the transition speed to suit your computers; also, features include the option to play sounds files as background music, thumbnail previewing, screensaver password protection, and more.

Ace Screensaver gives you the ability to create your own self-installing executable(.exe) screensaver and send to your family and friends. It also allows you to save and load any previous screensaver settings.

The way Ace Screensaver operates is simple: first of all you have to collect a set of images in JPEG (.jpg or .jpeg), GIF (.gif) or BITMAP (.bmp) format; then Ace Screensaver reads them and make a slide show screensaver. You can also add .MP3, .WAV .RMI and .MIDI sounds files to your screensavers.

Tail Ace description
Tail Ace is a powerful tailing utility for Windows that works similar to the UNIX tail -f command, but with more features. Tail Ace is a powerful tailing utility for windows that works similar to the UNIX tail -f command, but with many more features.

Tail Ace will help you monitor file changes and also comes with a series of filters and improvements.

You can use Tail Ace to monitor changes to files and see those changes in realtime. This program does more than just tail files.

Filters to include/exclude lines, color assignments and font sytles can be assigned to words/phrases.

Here are some key features of "Tail Ace":

· Tail multiple files at one time
· Add file to favorites so you dont have to always browse to the same file every time you start the program
· Ability to set filters to include or exclude lines in a file
· Set colors and font styles to words/phrases that you are tailing
· Set specific files to open automatically when the program starts
· Ability to set the refresh delay (how often the program checks the file for changes)
· Ability to set the buffer size (how many lines show in the tail window)
· Color and filter settings are applied to individual files so that you dont have to have the same color/filter settings to all open files
· Find text in the file that is being tailed
· Pause program from tailing file(s)
· Ability to scroll through file while tailing is taking place. Program still adds text but doesnt follow at the bottom of the file until you scroll back to the bottom
· Hold control key down and use mouse wheel to change font size in window
· Print selected text or an entire log window
· View recently opened files

Ace RGBmachine is extremely fast but very accurate color correction tool. Consider that normal productivity of manual color adjustment with Ace RGBmachine is about 10 or 20 digital shots per minute. Besides, the program uses exclusive color correction engine for extra accuracy.
It can surprise you, but Ace RGBmachine does not include usual file-open or file-save dialogs. You choose folder instead. The organization of processing reminds reloading in automatic weapon: as soon as you have finished with one image, another is available for processing. Certainly, you may skip unnecessary images during processing.
The color correction engine is not as simple as easy to use. Assume that you wish to increase contrast of an image. It often cause losses in shadows and highlight. There are no direct losses in Ace RGBmachine. It gently operates with local contrasts of an image instead. Despite of accuracy the engine is so fast, that the process reminds adjustment by analog handles, independently to image dimensions.
Also there is an opportunity to apply current correction to other images.

ACE is a platform-independent, collaborative text editor. It is a real-time cooperative editing system that allows multiple geographically dispersed users to view and edit a shared text document at the same time.

ACE is a program that allows multiple geographically dispersed users to view and edit a shared text document at the same time, thus facilitating efficient teamwork.

According to available knowledge, there is only one such application; it works well and has reached widespread use. Unfortunately, it is limited to the Mac platform. ACE is the first collaborative text editor that runs across all major platforms, including Windows, Linux, and Mac.

First of all, ACE is a simple text editor with standard features such as copy/paste and load/save. Multiple documents can be edited at the same time. Furthermore, ACE can share documents with other users on different computers, connected by communication networks.

ACE also discovers users and their shared documents automatically in a local area network. Users can opt to join any discovered shared document. For all this, no configuration is necessary because it is based on zero-conf networking (also known as Bonjour or Rendezvous).

Once a user has joined a shared document, he can freely edit the document at the same time with all participants as a virtual team. So-called awareness information helps to avoid unnecessary conflicts (i.e. two users editing at the same time and text location).

Awareness information includes the cursor and the currently selected text of the other users marked with the color of the respective user.

The heart of the application is a concurrency control algorithm based on the innovative concept of Operational Transformation, which allows for lock-free editing of a document by multiple users. It imposes no editing constraints and resolves all conflicts automatically.

The algorithm overcomes one of the most significant challenges in designing and implementing real-time collaborative editing systems, namely consistency preservation. That is to ensure that at quiescence (i.e. when no messages are in transit) the shared document is identical for all participants.

This algorithm was implemented as part of the semester project and forms the foundation of ACE.

ACE builds upon open technologies such as BEEP (RFC 3080) and zero-conf networking; all this leaves the possibility open to communicate even with different applications that understand the public protocol of ACE.

ACE short from ADAPTIVE Communication Environment is an object-oriented (OO) C++ framework that can help you develop and deploy high-performance software systems faster and better.

ACE is especially useful for systems that use network and/or inter-process communications and that take advantage of multithreading. While the ACE source code is free, thats not the only way you save money with ACE.

ACEs wrappers and higher-level patterns help you develop your software quickly and portably, helping you to complete your projects on time and within budget.

Over the past decade, my research group has worked with many collaborators on large-scale distributed application R&D projects in diverse domains, including command and control systems, telecom, datacom, medical engineering, distributed interactive simulations, and financial services.

Regardless of the domain and application requirements, weve found that software developers wrestle with the same core infrastructure challenges. Key challenges focus on OS platform portability, connection management and service initialization, event demultiplexing and event handler dispatching, multi-threading and synchronization, fault detection and fault tolerance, and various quality-of-service (QoS) issues, such as controlling latency, throughput, and jitter end-to-end.

Unfortunately, its very costly, time consuming, and error-prone for researchers and developers companies to independently rediscover and reinvent ad hoc solutions to these core distributed application software development challenges.

Fortunately, we have identified a relatively concise set of patterns and framework components that can be applied systematically to eliminate many tedious, error-prone, and non-portable aspects of developing and maintaining distributed applications.

A decade of intense R&D on these topics has yielded ACE, which is an object-oriented framework that implements many core patterns for concurrent communication software. We have applied the patterns and components in the ACE framework to develop The ACE ORB (TAO), which is our standards-based, CORBA middleware framework that allows clients to invoke operations on distributed objects without concern for object location, programming language, OS platform, communication protocols and interconnects, and hardware.

TAO is designed using the best software practices and patterns that we have discovered in our work on ACE in order to automate the delivery of high-performance and real-time QoS to distributed applications.
