CDmage is a software utility, which performs different tasks with a common CD image files on your harddrive. The most-wanted being: scanning, repairing and extracting.

Image scanning
A: It checks sectors against corruption. There are rules defined by ISO standards, which must be followed by each sector of the CD. Other programs can perform similar checks as well, namely well known BINChunker and Fireburner. CDmage displays all corrupted sectors along with a description of each error found.

Image errors
CDmage can repair image errors, but not all errors can be repaired. CDmage uses a similar mechanism for repair as CD writer/reader does. It uses Error Correction Code fields (ECCP&ECCQ) of the sectors.


Safety of repairing corrupted sectors with CDmage
The repairing of corrupted sectors is 100% safe if corruption isnt intentional. Repaired sector is exactly like its original. Please note than not all image errors should be repaired. There are intentinal errors which are part of some copy protection schemes. Some CD ripping apps (CloneCD, BlindRead...) let you make working copy of your legally owned software. If copied software is copy protected, then its image files can contain intentional corruptions. Repairing of them would cause a non-working copy when burned.

Features of "CD Mage":

support for Mode1/2048, Mode1/2352, Mode2/2336, Mode2/2352, Mode2/2056, CDI/2352, CDI/2336, CD+G/2448, Audio/2352 tracks

Flicker is an open-source stand-alone computer program for visually comparing 2D gel images. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) gels are often difficult to compare because of rubber-sheet distortions.

Major Features:

1. Flicker allows you to visually compare your gel images against each other or against those found in Internet databases. Many published Internet gels have a subset of spots identified which may make them useful to compare with your gels. Some of these Internet gels are active maps that you can click on a spot to inquire of its identity.You may be able to draw putative conclusions as to the identification of some spots in your gels that visually appear to be the same spots as in reference gels.
2. The Flicker program integrates these various needs to help you try to make putative spot identifications. See the Quick start examples below for a short list of some of these methods.
   
3. Of course Flicker might be useful for comparing other types of images such as 2D-blots, 1D gels, serial microscope sections, time-lapse, microarrays, etc. - any type of image where there are distortions or intensity variation of the images, differing numbers of spots, and other systematic and procedural experimental differences. It can read black and white or color JPEG and GIF images, and black and white TIFF images (some un-banded color TIFF images are available).
   
4. The Flicker application is Java program that runs under the MS Windows, MacOS-X, Linux and Solaris operating systems. It is downloaded to and runs on your computer. Flicker has been made open source and was contributed to the Open2Dprot project. Both the executable binary as well as the source code is available.
   

Enhancements:

• Corrected documentation.
• Validated that SWISS-2DPAGE clickable image maps still work.
• Memory change by editin the LAX file from the Edit Menu since the use of InstallAnywhere installers was previously depricated.
  

Requirements: Java

Polygon Reduction: Balancer utilizes a high quality, high performance polygon reduction (aka polygon simplification or decimation) to preserve the visual appearance of your model. Polygon reduction is computed for all possible levels of details (LOD) in one shot. This entire LOD hierarchy allows you instantly pick a required optimized model that gives the best trade-off between visual appearance and the number of triangles.

Rendering Performance Optimization: Modern graphics hardware and rendering applications utilize memory and vertex cache to dramatically speed up rendering and geometry processing. To make your models benefit from this, Balancer features a fast and efficient triangle reordering.

Versions: In addition to the main version, Balancer has these two variations.

• Balancer Demo is an evaluation version. It is fully functional except for saving.
• Balancer Lite is a free version. It is fully functional but works with small meshes only. The limits for a single mesh are 15000 triangles and 10000 vertices. If your entire model is large but has many small independent meshes or layers, you can still use Balancer Lite. Before loading your model, enable Balancer to split the model into independent meshes in Tools | Options | Importers | Wavefront .obj. Balancer Lite can be used for non-commercial purposes in non-business, non-commercial environment only. Commercially, 30 days evaluation period applies.

Major Features:

1. High quality, high performance mesh simplification
2. Construction of the entire LOD hierarchy in one shot
3. An advanced user interface to instantly select an optimized model with the desired number of triangles
4. Texture coordinates preservation
5. Normals can be either preserved or recomputed
6. Preservation and simplification of the model boundaries
7. Boundaries defined by discontinuities of materials, layers, texture coordinates are supported
8. Visualization of boundaries
9. Joining of vertices with the same position
10. Fast and intelligent triangle reordering for best visualization performance
    depending on your rendering method
11. Target rendering methods are
    triangle strips, general rendering, array based rendering
12. Supported 3D formats:
    Wavefront (.obj)
13. Supported image formats:
    JPEG, PNG, TIFF
14. Supported operating systems:
    Windows XP, Windows Vista
