software.zip   Data acqusition and analysis software

The data acquisition and analysis programs included with this thesis run under the 
JSDB JavaScript 1.5 interpreter from http://www.workflowconcepts.com/jsdb/. This 
interpreter was written by Shanti Rao, using the SpiderMonkey 1.5 JavaScript engine 
developed by Mozilla.org. These programs require the XML package included with JSDB.

Copyrights for the programs included herein are placed in the public domain.

xml.js         Library for reading XML files.

ploteps.js     Library for plotting data as Encapsulated PostScript figures.

stats.js       Library for computing the mean, max, and fourier components

readtex.js     Program to download data from a Tektronix TDS 3014 digital 
               oscilloscope and append it in an XML file. The scope should be 
               connected to COM1 at 38 kBaud. Data are saved in "data.xml."
		
               Usage: jsdb.exe readtex.js

makeplots.js   Program for generating plots for each data capture in an XML file.
               Data are read from "data.xml", and plots are stored in an "img/" 
               subdirectory.
		
               Usage: jsdb.exe makeplots.js

analyze.js	   Program to calculate rms amplitude, mean, min, max, and duty cycle
               of each waveform found in the file "data.xml". Results are saved
               in the text files, "magnitude.txt", "phase.txt", "mean.txt", and
               "info.txt".
		
               Usage: jsdb.exe analyze.js
