Japanese Language Tools

• KDrill - Kanji quiz program for flavours of Unix, including Linux
• JDrill is a Java version of KDrill - it's a Japanese Kana/Kanji tutorial application written in Java. The page also has tips on displaying Japanese fonts in Java under Solaris (& hopefully Linux) and Win32, with other notes that apply to unicode fonts. The Bitstream Cyberbit Win32 kanji font cbkanji is at dino.ugr.es/~gunkan/download/cbkanji.zip [6.25 Mbyte].
• KanjiFlash is another Java-based Japanese character drill
• Unionway has a Japanese Unicode True-Type Font
• The Yamada Language Archive includes a Non-English Font Archive - mostly bitmap fonts, though.
• Kanji112 - a free True Type font of about 2500 kanji characters
• The Monash University Archive has heaps of tools
• See also:
  • Keiko Schneider's Japanese Computing links
  • Joel West's Japanese-Capable Software
  • John De Hoog's review of Japanese support in email programs

Sites

• The programming equivalent of World Series Wrestling can be found in the Programmer Of The Month contest.
• Building computers out of dominoes
• ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest - submit solutions in C/C++/Pascal and have them automatically checked

Computer Science links

• Programming Languages & issues
  • Dan Jonsson's Pancode Home Page presents a different approach to control-flow in procedural programming languages [Orig paper ACM SIGPLAN Notices, Vol 24, No. 3, p. 65 (March 1989)]
  • A Gentle Introduction to Haskell
  • Mercury is a new logic/functional programming language, which combines the clarity and expressiveness of declarative programming with advanced static analysis and error detection features. Its highly optimized execution algorithm delivers efficiency far in excess of existing logic programming systems, and close to conventional programming systems. Mercury addresses the problems of large-scale program development, allowing modularity, separate compilation, and numerous optimization/time trade-offs.
• Software Engineering
  • Structuring Use Cases with Goals
  • ArgoUML - Object-oriented UML design tool with cognitive support (whatever that is) - Java
• Research projects
  • SubArctic - Java-base GUI building language with constraints
  • Memo - a distributed shared memory system in which parallel processes communicate through a shared directory of unordered queues
