This directory contains applications either developed or enhanced at Washington State University. This activity is supported in part by the National Science Foundation under grant USE-9250721. All applications run succesfully under NS3.0. I have not tried to run them under 3.1 since I can not afford it. Use at your own risk. If you find them helpful or want source code, drop me a line at bamberg@eecs.wsu.edu. If you use these applications, let me know so I can keep my funding agents happy. You may need to grab gzip and gunzip from the folks at the FSF. You can find it on their ftp sight, prep.ai.mit.edu in the pub/gnu directory. Sorry for the inconvenience, but it is a real nice compressor (I get about 30% more compression than "compress"). WaveFormEditor.Z is a simple harmonic oscillator for learning about the Fourier transform. It was originally developed at Stanford in the CCRMA. We have made some simple changes which change the way functions are plotted. In WaveFormEditor, a single period of a periodic waveform is displayed along with its Fourier Magnitude and Phase. The user graphically edit the waveform in any of the three windows and the other two windows are updated accordingly. The periodic waveform is being played out using the DSP and D/A converter simultaneously. This app is appropriate for an introductory signals and systems course (usually sophomore or junior level).
