ITWorx Qualification..

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh There is an association named ESEA which made a competition amon Architecture projects for 3rd year students.. the winner team will be qualified to get and interview in ITWorx... From my own point of view.. there were only 3 projects among alllllll those students (10 guys out of more than 270 students) those projects r : - Fayz & Ramy's project.. it's so wonderful they made a 3D model for the processor, the user will c a truck moving from a Bus to another carrying his data.... it's so nice.. - Moussa, Zezo, Kisho, Wael... another gr8 project (not complete though) to simulate any fully-drawn cpu circuit.. - Mustafa Mohie, Mustafa Atya, Mohammed Hussein, Haytham Alaa.... U can read some details in my previous post or check this : Assembly Plus Plus Dr.Amr Desoky & Dr.Ahmed Salah were supposed to judge and choose the winner, so they prefered the easy way.. and qualified all the 10 guys to the interview.. to let ITWorx decide.

Assembly++

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh It's time for publishing... at least as we planned to.. but for our bad luck.. it's exaaaaaaaaaams' time so we have so limited time to complete the googlepages we started and to put a well formed documentation online.. But let me tell u the general Ideas we tried to demonstrate: OOAssembly as briefly described before Here Let me tell u an example for the language : class Pixel public dword x public dword y endClass class Window : Pixel public proc Initialize ... ... endProc public proc PutPixel ... ... endProc endClass class Main proc Main Window wnd call wnd.Initialize mov ax, #3 mov wnd.X, ax mov wnd.Y, ax call wnd.PutPixel endProc endClass This is assembly yes.. expected output size.. yes, reliable..yes, readble.. yesss, powerful.. yesss this example demonstrates many things.. 1- Inherit

Architecture Project

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh I'm not gonna speak a lot about our Architecture Project.... It's not a secret anymore... but we still have some surprises for the exam day ISA ;) ... The Idea is simple.. we tried to make it useful.. mm think about combining the power of Assembly.. (will be mentioned later) and the elegant code written on C++ (C# lovers will argue with that ;) ) When I said power of Assembly I meant basiclly two things : - 1-1 matching.. means each Assembly lines will be equevilant to 1 instruction line - Controling the hardware soooooo smoothly.. so flexible soo powerful.. When I said Elegant code of C++ I meant : - Nice tidy understandable code... - Basic OO concepts.. making the code more and more elegant.. flexible extenadble.. readable.. Assembly was not understandble.. if u wrote a 1800-line program (u can easily reach that number of lines) no body.. even u will be able to understand it after few days.. Assembly was not Elegant at all.. u write

DB Project Delivered

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh Today we delivered our DB project.. Let me tell u a little bit about it.. It talks about Election Automation System, U have the ability to create election manage Positions, Menus, Members... etc If u r a regular Member, u can vote for one time.. If u r an electant, u can create menu if u r a President.. else u can just check some summery data.. mm, it's not complicated not big.. not a lot functionality.. we decided to make it using ASP.NET.. We started in the project just few days before delivery day... not big progress.. bugs.. e7l that it's accepted... Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh

Analysis' Project delivered

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh Yesterday we delivered the analysis project.. I've some comments on the whole issue.. our sections' exam should start on 11:00am.. we were there on time.. we chose a pc, put our project.. started figuring it out and here comes some comments - Our project was separated on file.. cuz every one worked a little bit on a project.. - Zezo (a teammate of myself) forgot his file.. so he had to do it again.. - There r some diagrams that each one have never seen.. and we discovered later that she wants a person to describe one single diagram "type" in the project... so what we did was a waste of time.. Let's continue.. 2 assistants were checking the projects.. they sit with each group -together- for about 45 minutes.. Here comes some logical comments: - They r only 2.. it's insane to sit together for each group - 45 minutes for each groups means the section would take 5*45 = 225minutes > 3 hours.. mm simple algebra.. hah!!

Lunatics Game..

Alsalam alikom wa ra7mat allah wa barakatoh Hope every one (= no one :) ) is just fine.. Do u know Worms ? GunBang (or whatever its name is)? those games where u r controling small characters in a virtual 2D space... with lots of weapons.. trying to make other characters fill into water or lose health or whatever.. Lunatics is a new game of that type.. Long ago, Yasser (elder than me by 2 years) has sent a message to the ACM_ASCIS group saying that a friend of his (I don't remember exactly what he said) but he said that there is a new game being developed.. and that any one wanted to share.. contact some one called Hadi.. Anyway, I contacted him, he looks serious at first.. but by time, I realised he is not a good leader for such a project.. he is that kind of people having money.. (like most Gulf people) Anyway, developers kept coming and leaving.. I was handed the networking stuff.. so I would start so late.. -didn't start till now actually :)- Today, he contacted me telling
