Zooming user interfaceIn computing, a zooming user interface or zoomable user interface (ZUI, pronounced zoo-ee) is a graphical environment where users can change the scale of the viewed area in order to see more detail or less, and browse through different documents. A ZUI is a type of graphical user interface (GUI). Information elements appear directly on an infinite virtual desktop (usually created using vector graphics), instead of in windows. Users can pan across the virtual surface in two dimensions and zoom into objects of interest.
Visualization (graphics)Visualization or visualisation (see spelling differences) is any technique for creating s, diagrams, or animations to communicate a message. Visualization through visual imagery has been an effective way to communicate both abstract and concrete ideas since the dawn of humanity. from history include cave paintings, Egyptian hieroglyphs, Greek geometry, and Leonardo da Vinci's revolutionary methods of technical drawing for engineering and scientific purposes. Visualization today has ever-expanding applications in science, education, engineering (e.
Automatic bug fixingAutomatic bug-fixing is the automatic repair of software bugs without the intervention of a human programmer. It is also commonly referred to as automatic patch generation, automatic bug repair, or automatic program repair. The typical goal of such techniques is to automatically generate correct patches to eliminate bugs in software programs without causing software regression. Automatic bug fixing is made according to a specification of the expected behavior which can be for instance a formal specification or a test suite.
Tableurvignette|350x350px|LibreOffice Calc 6.2 Un tableur est un programme informatique capable de manipuler des feuilles de calcul. À l'origine destinés au traitement automatisé des données financières, les logiciels tableurs sont maintenant utilisés pour effectuer des tâches variées, de la gestion de bases de données simples à la production de graphiques (on peut alors parler de tableur-grapheur), en passant par diverses analyses statistiques. Le tableur est, dans les organisations, le principal outil de développement d'applications par l'utilisateur-final.
AmniocentèseL'amniocentèse est une procédure médicale invasive utilisée pour un diagnostic prénatal, dans laquelle de liquide amniotique sont extraits de la cavité amniotique (l'amnios constitue avec le chorion l'enveloppe de l'œuf) dans laquelle se trouve le fœtus. L'amniocentèse peut être pratiquée dès que l'on considère qu'il y a assez de liquide amniotique entourant le fœtus, à partir de la d'aménorrhée jusqu'à la fin de la grossesse. Elle fait partie avec la biopsie de trophoblaste (choriocentèse) et la ponction de sang fœtal (cordocentèse) des moyens invasifs de diagnostic prénatal.
Very high-level programming languageA very high-level programming language (VHLL) is a programming language with a very high level of abstraction, used primarily as a professional programmer productivity tool. VHLLs are usually domain-specific languages, limited to a very specific application, purpose, or type of task, and they are often scripting languages (especially extension languages), controlling a specific environment. For this reason, very high-level programming languages are often referred to as goal-oriented programming languages.
