This is a Dashboard widget for Mac OS X Tiger. It computes the UTC, LST, JD and MJD for provided observatories in the world. It can also computed airmass curves and observablities. It is not a script by itself rather than a collection of CSS, Javascript, HTML, Python and C scripts... But it provides excellent examples computations n javascript, how to manage XML files and XMLHttpRequests in Javascripts, as well as some basic python stuff.

This is a script to put on the end of your NCSA batch files, to do parallel uploads to mass storage at the end of your runs. It should be possible to adjust this script to work with other supercomputers too.
Sample usage is
# Designate storage directory on MSS
set STORAGE_DIR="Runs/Flash25/bhl/exe01"
# Make the file list
\ls -1 --hide-control-chars *hdf* *log flash.dat > files.txt

Description:
To study the performance of a parallel ACO algorithm with various components (interconnection topology, migration frequency, number of CPUs) I wrote this R script to perform an ANOVA on the experimental results.
Hope it could be a start point for others with similar needs.

Description:
This is an AppleScript designed to work with BibDesk. It gets the current selection of publications in the front document of BibDesk, and assuming each publication is associated to a local file, it duplicates each file to a "SelectedPapers" folder on the desktop of the current user. Handy for collecting in a folder all papers meeting certain search criteria.
