====== ORCA (MIDI Networked Orchestra) ======
The Orchestra project or “Orca” for short is a computer networking project which when realized will be the networking of several computers to form an orchestra which will play some form of a musical score. This idea here is that one of the computers will function as the conductor of the orchestra, and the other computers will function as the individual instrument players in some sort of server, client relationship. The Java language was ultimately chosen to implement this project for two reasons. First, Java is a network-centric language and has rich support for socket programming. Second, Java has rich support for MIDI.
Got to the ORCA project page for details: http://lab46.corning-cc.edu/notes/sysnet/spring2011?s[]=orca .\\

===client/server===
**Python Client/Server**\\
\\
by John Rine\\
\\
Early in the semester, the class was challanged to find some example code to perform socket communications. I volunteered to find Python examples. The client/server code listed below is from a tutorial. The tutorial is located at: http://heather.cs.ucdavis.edu/nmahoff/python/pynet.pdf .\\
Example Python TCP client code.\\

<file python client.py>
# simple illustration client/server pair; client program sends a string
# to server, which echoes it back to the client (in multiple copies),
# and the latter prints to the screen

# this is the client

import socket
import sys

# create a socket
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)

# connect to server
host = sys.argv[1] # server address
port = int(sys.argv[2]) # server port
s.connect((host, port))

s.send(sys.argv[3]) # send test string

# read echo
i = 0
while(1):
    data = s.recv(1000000) # read up to 1000000 bytes
    i += 1
    if (i < 5): # look only at the first part of the message
        print data
    if not data: # if end of data, leave loop
        break
    print 'received', len(data), 'bytes'

# close the connection
s.close()
</file>
\\
Example Python TCP client code.
<file python server.py>
# simple illustration client/server pair; client program sends a string
# to server, which echoes it back to the client (in multiple copies),
# and the latter prints to the screen
# this is the server
import socket
import sys
# create a socket
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
# associate the socket with a port
host = '' # can leave this blank on the server side
port = int(sys.argv[1])
s.bind((host, port))
# accept "call" from client
s.listen(1)
conn, addr = s.accept()
print 'client is at', addr
# read string from client (assumed here to be so short that one call to
# recv() is enough), and make multiple copies (to show the need for the
# "while" loop on the client side)
data = conn.recv(1000000)
data = 10000 * data # concatenate data with itself 999 times
# wait for the go-ahead signal from the keyboard (to demonstrate that
# recv() at the client will block until server sends)
z = raw_input()
# now send
conn.send(data)
# close the connection
conn.close()
</file>

**Installing the Java SDK**\\
Getting path to the Java SDK bin directory.\\
First search for the path to the Java SDK bin directory. The java compliler, javac.exe is in this directory so from the root directory, C:, search for this file. once found, record the path to the directory. Append this path to the Windows path statement (see below).\\
\\
Adding path to Java JDK Bin Directory\\
Windows XP Operating System\\
Navigate to the Windows path as follows:\\ 
Control Panel->System Icon->Advanced Tab->Environment Variables Button->Path (Double-click item)\\
Add the directory path to Java bin directory to the end of the Windows path, in this case added the following path on to the end of the Windows path: ;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0\bin . The semicolon is a separator between paths in the Windows path statement.\\

Reading the MIDI file header\\
\\
by John Rine\\
\\
Listed below is the code to read and display the header of a midi format file. The code is written in "long hand" (no methods) as it is in development. The data conversion sections could be placed into methods to make tthe code more compact. Remember, it is still under development, but it works.
