I have been ill during this last week. I got a 40 degree fever, coughing all the time... Now I must study harder than ever to compensate all that time lost. At least I could have some rest after all...

I have watched Terminator 3 yesterday. Nice movie.
I am very pleased to announce that the 19th International Symposium on Mathematical Programming will be hosted in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on july 2006.
Rio de Janeiro has recently been elected by the Mathematical Programming Society Cometee at Copenhagen to host the event. Besides presenting a good proposal, Rio candidature has been aided by President Bush's exclusion policy (which contributed to Chicago's defeat in the election). Hooray!
PS: nymia: Yes, we Brazilians like volleyball, despite I have not played for quite a long time...
I have just received a some extra ICs: a couple of ADCs and some DACs. Additional photo-transistors also came along and should prove to be very funny to work with. Well, at least I have their datasheets.
I have also found a shop that sells some ICs I need for R$ 1,00 (Brazilian currency), which is about US$ 0.33
I am back to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I have bought some static RAM ICs to play with but I should focus on my project, PopAsm, the Popular Assembler
Ahhh, free at last! I have managed to get rid of that blasted coursework that uses MobiCS (Mobile Computer Simulator). Well, at least I have managed to impress the teacher for I was the only student who managed to fully implement the distributed consensus protocol using that simulator.
There is no time to rest, however. I must do other two final works before my vacation. I will then be able to resume my project PopAsm, the Popular Assembler.
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
