The increasing popularity of component-based programming tools offer a big opportunity to designers of advanced programming languages, such as Haskell. If we can package our programs as COM objects, then it is easy to integrate them into applications written in other languages. In earlier work we described a preliminary integration of Haskell with Microsoft's Component Object Model (COM), focusing on how Haskell can create and invoke COM objects. This paper develops that work, concentrating on the mechanisms that support externally-callable Haskell functions, and the encapsulation of a Haskell program as a COM object. 1 Introduction "Component-based programming" is all the rage. It has come to mean an approach to software construction in which a program is an assembly software components, perhaps written in different languages, glued together by some common substrate [16]. The most widely used substrates are Microsoft's Component Object Model (COM), and the Common Object Request Broke...

Prologue in Hell
"... Since we humans find the problem of time perplexing and the problem of the mind excruciatingly difficult, it is safe to say that the problems born from the conjunction of time and mind, the theme of this Sixth Conference of our Society, are simply diabolical. Let us therefore go to Hell for enlighte ..."

FPGA Synthesis on the XC6200 using IRIS and Trianus/Hades (or from Heaven to Hell and back again)

The designs have been implemented using a combination of IRIS, an architectural synthesis tool and Trianus/Hades a set of integrated tools for implementing algorithms on Custom Computing Machines.

The implementation of a number of FIR filter structures in the Xilinx XC6200 technology is presented. The designs have been implemented using a combination of IRIS, an architectural synthesis tool and Trianus/Hades a set of integrated tools for implementing algorithms on Custom Computing Machines. The main attraction of this approach is that it allows algorithms to be compiled quickly allowing performance changes to be made at the architectural level in IRIS rather than at the FPGA layout level.
Stairway to Heaven or Highway to Hell: Liquidity, Sweat Equity, and the Uncertain Path to Ownership *
, 2010
"... We study how a principal optimally contracts with an agent to operate a �rm over an in�nite time horizon when the agent is liquidity constrained and has access to private information about the sequence of cost realizations. We formulate the mechanism design problem as a recursive dynamic program in ..."

Hell Disarmed? Th e Function of Hell in Reformation Spirituality
"... In Late Medieval Christianity, the concept of hell was closely connected to the sacra-ment of penance. Hell could be avoided through the right use of penance. And the cleansing suff erings in purgatory could to a certain extent replace the eternal suff erings in hell. Th e Protestant Reformation rej ..."

rejected purgatory, and returned to a traditional dualistic view of the relationship between heaven and hell. At the same time, hell seems to lose some of its religious importance in early Protestant spirituality. Th is change is illustrated through a comparison of two central texts belonging more or less
FACT SHEET: TREE OF HEAVEN Tree of Heaven
"... Tree-of-heaven, also known as ailanthus, Chinese sumac, and stinking shumac, is a rapidly growing, deciduous tree in the mostly tropical quassia family (Simaroubaceae). Mature trees can reach 80 feet or more in height. Ailanthus has smooth stems with pale gray bark, and twigs which are light chestnu ..."

d) A Heavenly Odyssey of the Soul?

In the same passage where Plutarch interprets the Sirens as celestial psychopomps who lead the souls towards their heavenly abode by means of the song, he alludes to passions as earplugs that prevent listening to the song of the celestial Sirens.165 This may point to a hypothetical commentary on the ..."
