The integration of wysiwyg latex typesetting with computer algebra

Scientific WorkPlace 6®

Scientific WorkPlace Version 6 makes writing, sharing and typesetting mathematical and scientific text easier than you ever imagined. This is an easy-to-use word processor that integrates mathematics and text in the same environment. The embedded MuPAD 5 computer algebra engine in Scientific WorkPlace 6 allows the user to perform computations on the screen, and to print them out correctly formatted.

With Version 6 you have a choice of operating systems: Windows or 32-bit Mac OS up to 10.14 Mojave. With its entirely new Mozilla-based architecture, Version 6 provides more flexibility; you can save or export your documents in multiple formats according to your publication and portability needs.

Scientific WorkPlace 6 continues to be a front-end for the LaT_eX typesetting program which is used to typeset complex technical documents. This means that you don’t have to learn the LaT_eX syntax. Because of its superior precision and quality, LaT_eX is the gold standard for publishers and authors of scientific papers and books.

When you typeset, LaT_eX automatically generates footnotes, indexes, bibliographies, tables of contents and cross references. The software includes document shells that have been designed to meet the typesetting requirements of specific professional journals and institutions. Scientific WorkPlace 6 automatically saves your documents as XML files. This makes them completely portable across platforms. Sharing your work with colleagues is easy and seamless.

Scientific WorkPlace 6 Adds the Power of MuPAD 5

Scientific WorkPlace 6 uses MuPAD 5 as the embedded computer algebra system. In this integrated working environment, you can enter mathematics and perform computations without having to think or work in a programming language.

Scientific WorkPlace 6 uses natural mathematical notation, so you don’t have to master complex syntax to be able to evaluate, simplify, solve, or plot mathematical expressions. Full computer algebra capabilities are available. You can compute symbolically or numerically, integrate, differentiate, and solve algebraic and differential equations. With menu commands you can compute with over 150 units of physical measure.

With Scientific WorkPlace 6 you can create two- and three-dimensional plots in many styles and coordinate systems, and enhance the plots with background color, grid lines, and plot labels in
specified locations and orientations. Although there are substantial changes to Scientific WorkPlace 6, the computation behavior of the program is largely unchanged and will be familiar to previous users of our products.

The manual, Doing Mathematics with Scientific WorkPlace and Scientific Notebook Version 6 by Darel W. Hardy and Carol L. Walker, describes the use of the underlying computer algebra system for doing mathematical calculations. In particular, it explains how to use the built-in computer algebra system to do a wide range of mathematics without dealing directly with MuPAD syntax. This manual is available as a download.

You can create mathematical and scientific documents easily, combining text and mathematics in a completely integrated environment. Scientific Word 6 allows you to compose and edit complex documents directly on the screen without having to think in a programming language.

Scientific Word 6 enhances important features that were present in earlier versions of the program: compatibility with other software and systems; a rich interface based on the logical separation of content and appearance; the natural entry of text and mathematics; and the ability to typeset complex technical documents with LaT_eX the industry standard for mathematics and scientific publishing.

Because Scientific Word 6 is a front end to LaT_eX, you do not have to learn the LaT_eX syntax. When you typeset, LaT_eX automatically generates footnotes, indexes, bibliographies, tables of contents, and cross-references.

Client SDK

Современный рынок становится всё более дифференцированным. Заказчики требуют персонифицированного подхода. С одной стороны это позволяет более эффективно взаимодействовать, с другой – усложняет процесс интеграции и «подстраивания» под запросы клиентов. У компании Avaya есть эффективный инструмент для решения и этой задачи. Client SDK – это комплект средств разработки, который позволяет специалистам по программному обеспечению создавать приложения на основе функциональности платформ унифицированных коммуникаций и контактных центров Avaya. SDK использует встроенный функционал платформы и сокращает время на разработку и интеграцию.

Возможности Avaya Client SDK:

Общий набор API-интерфейсов позволяет разработчикам создавать инновационные и дифференцированные пользовательские интерфейсы. Те же API-интерфейсы используются Avaya для создания собственных клиентских приложений, включая клиенты Avaya Workplace client и Avaya Oceana Workspaces.
SDK выходит за рамки традиционных унифицированных коммуникаций и контакт-центров. Он позволяет разработчикам комбинировать интеллектуальных операторов, функции поиска в базе данных и аналитику в совершенно новые унифицированные пользовательские интерфейсы.
Упрощение процесса разработки происходит за счет использования удобных для разработчиков API и встроенных коннекторов. Никаких специальных знаний протоколов связи не требуется. SDK поддерживает несколько платформ и позволяет создать общий пользовательский интерфейс для мобильных (Android, iOS), настольных (Windows, Mac) операционных систем и веб-приложений (JavaScript).

Какие преимущества получают пользователи Client SDK?

Повышение гибкости бизнеса за счёт предоставления дифференцированных возможностей и реализации индивидуальных бизнес-потребностей;
Снижение затрат за счет использования встроенных инструментов SDK и API-интерфейсов. Разработчики могут сосредоточиться на создании решений, не тратя время на изучение возможностей приложения.
Улучшение качества обслуживания клиентов, потому что Avaya Client SDK позволяет персонифицировать и оптимизировать взаимодействие с конкретными заказчиками, упрощая доступ, повышая удовлетворенность от сотрудничества и увеличивая прибыль.

Document Production

Documents and all files related to them (embedded files, plot files, etc.) are automatically bundled together. In Scientific WorkPlace 6 you only need a single file bearing the extension .sci to share a document.

You can seamlessly import LaT_eX files created with earlier versions of the program, and can export any document as a LaT_eX file.

In XML and XHTML files, Version 6 represents your mathematics as MathML. This makes it easy to create XHTML web files for the representation of your mathematics on various platforms over the Internet with a browser. The recommended browser for Version 6 is Firefox, not Scientific Viewer.

Scientific WorkPlace 6 gives you multiple document production options. You can choose whether to preview or print directly from the program window when you are ready for output, or you can view your document in a browser. With Scientific WorkPlace you can typeset your document when you need the extensive document formatting that LaT_eX and pdfLaT_eX provide.

New to Version 6 you may Undo an unlimited number of previous editing changes from your current session within a document.

Also new is the ability to check your spelling in realtime. With the inline spell checking from MySpell, you can catch any misspellings. MySpell, which is open-source, includes dictionaries in over 40 languages. Misspelled words have a wavy red underline.

Scientific WorkPlace 6 speeds document formatting with a new visual interface for page layouts. Common tasks, such as a section head and footnote formatting are simpler. This new WYSIWYG interface translates directly to T_eX. There is little or no need to use the document preamble or raw T_eX commands to achieve the page format you want.

Fragments in Version 6 can contain text, mathematics, T_eX strings, XHTML code, graphics, or anything else that can go on the clipboard. The program comes with a few pre-defined fragments. Information in fragments can carry tags, and fragments from each document are available to all.

Tables in Scientific WorkPlace 6 are made easier by a new visual interface. Rows and columns will resize automatically to fit the amount of information being entered; you can also manually resize them.

Scientific WorkPlace 6 gives you improved and scalable fonts. Use pdfLaT_eX or X_ƎT_EX to create documents with a wide variety of scalable fonts. With X_ƎT_EX you can installed on your computer, as well as Unicode and associated extended Unicode TrueType fonts. The program includes the latest version of LaT_eX and A_MS macros. The packages yield ligatures and kerning in all text when documents are typeset.

Scientific WorkPlace 6 supports any left-to-right or right-to-left language that is supported by your operating system.

The manual, Creating Documents with Scientific WorkPlace and Scientific Word Version 6, by Clint Hicks, is a guide to the substantial changes in this new version. Written as an introduction for new users, as well as giving existing users information about the important changes to the functionality of our programs, this manual is available as a download.

Avaya Workplace

Avaya Workplace Client – это приложение, которое даёт доступ к сервисам унифицированных коммуникаций (UC) и совместной работы. Приложение поддерживается на операционных системах Android, iOS, Mac, Windows и обладает универсальным интуитивно понятным интерфейсом. Его можно установить на смартфонах, планшетах, ноутбуках, стационарных компьютерах или устройствах Avaya Vantage.Аvaya Workplace обеспечивает несколько функциональных уровней:

голосовой и видео вызов;
обмен мультимедийными сообщениями в пользовательских и групповых чатах;
хранение истории обмена мультимедийными сообщениями;
поиск по корпоративному справочнику нужного сотрудника;
аудио- и видео-конференц-связь с полным набором инструментов управления конференцией (подключение/отключение участников, блокировка/разблокировка микрофонов участников, блокировка собрания, управление раскладкой и т.д.).

С Avaya Workplace можно совершать аудио- и видеозвонки, переводить их на других пользователей, вводить добавочный номер, присоединяться к вызовам с нескольких устройств, собирать и управлять аудио- и видео конференциями, осуществлять поиск сотрудников в корпоративном справочнике. Пользователи могут просматривать историю звонков, слушать голосовую почту и переадресовывать вызовы. Но голос больше не является предпочтительным способом оставаться на связи с клиентами и коллегами. Вместо аудиосвязи основополагающее значение приобретает видеосвязь и обмен контентом с помощью мгновенных сообщений. Именно поэтому у всех пользователей Avaya Workplace есть доступ к Avaya Aura. Эта коммуникационная платформа на базе IP-протокола соединяет сотрудников независимо от их местонахождения и обеспечивает эффективную поддержку голоса, видео, мультимедийных сообщений, веб-приложений, мобильных клиентов и мультимедийной конференц-связи.

Это значит, что сотрудники с помощью мультимедийных сообщений могут обмениваться фото-, аудио- и видеофайлами. Их удобно просматривать на экране своего устройства, не прерывая конференц-связь. Более того, изображение своего экрана можно сделать доступным для всех участников. Пользователи всегда остаются на связи даже когда много перемещаются в течение дня — Avaya Workplace Client путешествует вместе со своими пользователями, предоставляя эффективный инструмент для общения везде, где и когда они хотят. А главное, что перед началом работы каждая организация может настроить Avaya Workplace «под себя».

Increased Productivity

While you are doing the work of creating content, you do not need to be distracted by formatting tasks. Scientific WorkPlace 6 does that work for you. With so many available output options, each with a different purpose and appearance, taking the time-consuming approach of trying to make the document on the screen look as much as possible like the printed document is simply not necessary.

Because the document window does not correspond directly to the size of online or printed pages, the program does not display page divisions or fixed line lengths on the screen; lines are broken to fit the size of the window. When you preview the document, you will see the page divisions correctly. Our programs use styles and tags for formatting documents, which can be printed directly or saved as XHTML files for use on your website.

Version 6 provides direct access to the Internet from within the program. The online Help system provides fast information when you need it. Our Unbeatable Expert Technical Support is available for our licensed users.
