I’ve made huge strides with PHCL, but haven’t had much time to post or commit anything recently. More soon.

Development Environment

I’ve spent the past couple days working towards getting a common development environment set up, so that I don’t have to use different IDE’s and tools. I’m trying to get everything situated, since Winter quarter is likely to be one of the most programming intensive quarters that I’ve had. I want to be prepared, so [...]

Memory simulator done, C# TreeView trick, TF2 + Wine + Susanna = win

Today I finished aggregating the data from the Python memory simulator logs into CSV files, and plotted the data. The graph can be viewed here. As you can see, there is a worst-case, normal-case, and best-case set of data, each corresponding to a page-removal algorithm. I think for a first program in Python, while it’s [...]

Python memory simulator

I previously mentioned the Python memory simulator project that I was developing, and had set it to run 6 tests on a dual-core machine. 4 of those tests completed, but 2 did not. It turns out that the overhead of performing a sort on Python lists with lengths exceeding 10000, several hundred times per second, [...]

This week in accomplishment history

I’ve accomplished a fair number of items this week, and so I bring them here to you.
Our team for CSCD340 (Operating Systems) has finished our memory paging simulator (written in Python), and we are now in the process of running 6 tests on it. The tests include simulating the following:

Consecutive data, worst efficiency algorithm
Consecutive data, [...]

Substance

It’s been a little while since I last wrote a post of substance; that is to say one that was more than just brief tidbits or musings. I’ll bring all 2 of you that read this blog up to speed.
I’ve been doing a lot of reading lately, which has a lot to do with this [...]
