pure-lang - Google Code
by Emaux
Pure is a modern-style functional programming language based on term rewriting. It offers equational definitions with pattern matching, full symbolic rewriting capabilities, dynamic typing, eager and lazy evaluation, lexical closures, built-in list and matrix support and an easy-to-use C interface. The interpreter uses LLVM as a backend to JIT-compile Pure programs to fast native code.
Pure is closely related to the author's Q language and is slated to eventually become its successor, since it offers many new and powerful features and programs run much faster than their Q equivalents.
JavaScript Information Visualization Toolkit (JIT) at noumena
by julie
The JIT is an advanced JavaScript infovis toolkit that was based on 5 papers regarding different information visualization techniques. The JIT implements advanced features of information visualization like Treemaps (with the slice and dice and squarified methods), an adapted visualization of trees based on the Spacetree, a focus+context technique to lay Hyperbolic Trees, and a radial layout of trees with advanced animations (RGraph).

GUI with flex
by pvergain

Flex is a way to develop Flash applications by programming. It includes a declarative XML language called MXML for laying out user interfaces, and a programming language called ActionScript, which is a superset of ECMAScript (that is, standardized JavaScript), with extra features like optional static type checking. ActionScript is a single language that works across all platforms, so you don’t have to worry about differences. Because it is based on ECMAScript, your JavaScript knowledge is not lost. All MXML components are actually written in ActionScript, which is what you use if you want to write your own components. Flex applications compile directly into SWFs (Flash binaries), which are then Just-In-Time (JIT) compiled by the Flash runtime, for extra speed.

SheepShaver : Un Mac dans votre Mac
by Neewok
& 1 other
Sheepshaver est un émulateur très performant de Mac OS ( PowerPC MacOS 8.5 à MacOS 9.0.4 ). Il vous permet donc de faire tourner un Mac OS Classic indépendant sur votre Mac OS X, qu’il soit sur processeur PowerPC ou Intel. Les possesseurs de processeur PowerPC profiteront des fonctions JIT ( just in time ) pour des performances supérieures. En effet, le CPU émulé étant celui qui fait tourner le Mac, les instructions seront au maximum, retranscrites directement au processeur sans être émulées. Les possesseurs de MacIntel profiteront de la possibilité de lancer un Mac OS 9 sur leur machine, sans avoir à dépoussierer un vieux Mac.
