r [String Split] in version 0.9.0014)
The [Timer] prompts a component to up date at the set interval. in this case every 1 seconds.
The [Time] param is a placeholder for a time in the same way that a [Number] param can hold real numbers.
By using "Now" as the input to the [Time] param you will get the current time when the param updates. therefore every second it resets to the current time.
The [Text Split] is there to separate the output of [Time] in a string format at every colon ":"
Therefore "Monday, 13-MAY-2013 (11:23:30)" would become:
0 Monday, 13-MAY-2013 (1
1 23
2 30)
The next two components use this to convert it into the current seconds. Because we are after the last item "30)" we can use [List Item] on a reversed list to get the last item.
Now we have to remove the ")" with [Replace String] but we are replacing it with nothing so it disappears.
The Arrow is part of the Sketch Tool Functionality of the canvas.
Lastly the 3 different inputs should go into the three different Inputs of the [Stream Filter]

TB of RAM. I think I'm going to start a GoFundMe campaign to buy one for myself :)
2- The server's cost is about $13 an hour. I get free access to supercomputer through my university and xsede.org because I earned an NSF Honorable mention last March, however, the supercomputers available through both resources are a little complicated for me to use, as opposed to the one available from amazon that has Microsoft server 2012 already installed.
3- I wanted to run 400 annual glare simulations for 400 different views.
4- I tried a to perform annual glare simulation for one view on my Dell XPS that has Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor and 16GB of system memory. The simulation took 2 hours to complete. Radiance parameter ab was set to 6.
5- I wanted to obtain the batch file for each view so I can run them on the server. So I used the fly component to run all 400 simulations and closed the cmd windows, that wasn't bad ( for me at least) because I asked my son to this job for me, he was just glad to help me :)
6- I created one batch file using this cmd command:
dir /s /b *.bat > runall.bat
This created a file with the path to each .bat file. I edited this file in Notepad++ to include the word "start" at the beginning of each line. This was done using the "find and replace" dialogue box.
7- I split my newly created batch file into 3 batch files, each one has about 130 file names and " start" before the file names.
8- installed radiance on my server
9- Ran the first batch file on the server, this started 130 cmd windows performing my simulations, CPU usage was anywhere between 90% to 100% and about 105 GB of RAMs were used.
10. It took about 5 hours to complete all 130 simulations, I expected to run all in 2 hours but can't complain because this would've taken about 260 hours to run on my laptop. After the simulations done I ran the second and then the third batch files ( total of about 15 hours).
11. I got 400 valid dgb files. Couldn't be happier!

ocessed once Grasshopper is done with whatever it's doing now.
3) Grasshopper tells the Slider object that the mouse moved and the slider works out the new value as implied by the new cursor position.
4) The slider then expires itself and its dependencies ([VB Step 1] in this case, but there can be any number of dependent objects).
5) When [VB Step 1] is expired by the slider, it will in turn expire its dependencies (VB Step 2), and so on, recursively until all indirect dependencies of the slider have been expired.
6) When the expiration shockwave has subsided, runtime control is returned to the slider object, which tells the parent document that stuff has changed and that a new solution is much sought after.
7) The Document class then iterates over all its objects (they are stored in View order, not from left to right), solving each one in turn. (Assuming the object needs solving, but since in your example ALL objects will be expired by a slider change, I shall assume that here).
8) It's hard to tell which object will get triggered first. You'd have to superimpose them in order to see which one is visually the bottom-most object, but let's assume for purposes of completeness that it's the [VB Step 1] object which is solved first.
9) [VB Step 1] is triggered by the document, which causes it to collect all the input data.
10) The input parameter [x] is asked to collect all its data, which in turn will trigger the Slider to solve itself (it got expired in step 4 remember?). This is not a tricky operation, it merely copies the slider value into the slider data structure and shouts "DONE!".
11) [x] then collects the number, stores it into its own data structure and returns priority to the [VB Step 1] object.
12) [VB Step 1] now has sufficient data to get started, so it will trigger the script inside of it. When the script completes, the component is all ready and it will tell the parent document it can move on to the next object (the iteration loop from step 7).
13) Let us assume that the slider object is next on the list, but since it has already been solved (it was solved because [VB Step 1] needed the value) it can be skipped right away, which leaves us with the last object in the document which is still unsolved.
14) [VB Step 2] will be triggered by the document in very much the same way as [VB Step 1] was triggered in step 9. It will also start by collecting all input data.
15) Since all the input data for [VB Step 2] is either defined locally or provided by an object which has already been solved, this process is now swift and simple.
16) Upon collecting all data and running the user script, the component will surrender priority and the document becomes active again.
17) The document triggers a redraw of the Grasshopper Canvas and the Rhino viewports and then surrenders priority again and so on and so forth all the way up the hierarchy until Grasshopper becomes idle again.
[end boring]
Pretty involved for a small 3-component setup, but there you have it.
To answer somewhat more directly your questions:
- The order in which objects are solved is the same as the order in which they are drawn. This is only the case at present, this behaviour may change in the future.
- Adding a delay will not solve anything, since the execution of all components is serial, not parallel. Adding a delay simply means putting everything on hold for N milliseconds.
- [VB Step 1] MUST be solved prior to [VB Step 2] because otherwise there'd be no data to travel from [GO] to [Activate]. The only tricky part here is that sometimes [VB Step 1] will be solved as part of the process of [VB Step 2], while at other times it may be solved purely on its own merits. This should not make a difference to you as it does not affect the order in which your scripts are called.

rights to register the "mapwingis.ocx" file.Francesco, would you be patient just a tiny little bit, so that we could try something else? I would be grateful if you could.
1) Close Grasshopper and Rhino2) Run the Revo Uninstaller Pro and uninstall your MapWinGIS application along with removing all the leftovers from the registry.3) Restart your PC, and once it boots again, make sure that you are logged in as an Adminstrator.4) In your Start menu's search box type: "UAC", which will find your User Account Control Settings. Click on it, and a new window will open. Set the bar on the left to "Never notify".5) Turn off your Antivirus, which ever it is.6) Download the 64 bit version of v4.9.4.2 MapWinGIS.7) Right click on downloaded MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file, and choose "Properties". If there is "Unblock" button click on it, and then click on "OK". If there is no "Unblock" button, just click on "OK".8) Left double click on MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file and install it to "C:\dev\MapWinGIS" folder. Choose "Full installation" during installation process!9) In your Start menu's search box type: "CMD". Once the "Command prompt" appears do not left click on it! Instead right click on it, and choose "Run as Administrator".10) A command prompt window will open. Type the following command:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /u /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
If command does not result in an error message, then type this one afterwards:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
11) If no error appeared again, then open your Rhino and Grasshopper and check what Gismo_Gismo component prints from its "readMe!" output.If errors appeared, it would be nice if you could post their screenshots.…

visiting school will continue its engagement with Mexico City from an infrastructural point of view taking advantage of the challenges and opportunities it poses/offers for the viability of one of the biggest metropolis on earth. The workshop will be constructed around key infrastructural issues such as the “Recovering of Waterscapes” and the “Reinforcement of Mobility Networks”. They will form the spine for the intervention through PROTOTYPICAL strategies within a tactical URBANISM framework.
The objective will be to explore and develop the concept of “urban prototype” capable of accommodating change and a degree of indeterminacy within the design process which will acquire its specificity by means of its on-site materialization. Paradigms of self-organized systems, distributed networks and uprising complexity will be introduced through systemic based design techniques, setting up counter models to conventional urban design and planning.
Based on this brief, students will have the opportunity to develop their skills through different methodologies based on the exploration of local conditions, engineering techniques, material processes, and the experimentation with digital, fabrication and representational tools.
The visiting school will run parallel units by AA tutors and graduates from across the school giving participants the opportunity to experiment the different lines of research currently being developed at the AA, in particular the visiting school will directly engage with the investigations within the research cluster “Urban Prototypes “.
In addition to this a symposium and series of lecture will to bring key figures, local and international, directly related to the design of the city (Minister of Urban development, architects and urban designers, authorities, artists among others). The event will finish with students presenting their work to local authorities and relevant actors and a public exhibition of the results.
Eligibility
The workshop is open to current architecture and design students, phd candidates and young professionals. All applicants should submit a CV and portfolio.
Applications
The deadline for applications is 11 June 2012. Application forms and additional information are available online at: www.prototypicalnetworks.net and applications can be submitted to: visitingschool@aaschool.ac.uk.
Schedule & Venue
The school runs in summer from 25/06/2012 to 06/07/2012 in Mexico City. This is an intensive, studio-based programme requiring full-time participation.
Accommodation & Costs
Accommodation during the workshop is not provided, but accommodation at an affordable hotel can be advised. The AA Visiting School requires a fee of £695 per participant which includes a £50 Visiting Student Membership, made payable to the AA School of Architecture.…

The measure Entropy is newer. I hereby explain it (from my PhD dissertation):
Entropy values, as described in (Hillier & Hanson, The Social Logic of Space, 1984) and specified in (Turner A. , “Depthmap: A Program to Perform Visibility Graph Analysis, 2007), intuitively describe the difficulty of getting to other spaces from a certain space. In other words, the higher the entropy value, the more difficult it is to reach other spaces from that space and vice-versa. We compute the spatial entropy of the node as using the point depth set:
(11)
“The term is the maximum depth from vertex and is the frequency of point depth *d* from the vertex” (ibid). Technically, we compute it using the function below, which itself uses some outputs and by-products from previous calculations:
Algorithm 4: Entropy Computation
Given the graph (adjacency lists), Depths as List of List of integer, DepthMap as Dictionary of integer
Initialize Entropies as List(double)
For node as integer in range [0, |V|)
integer How_Many_of_D=0
double S_node=0
For depth as integer in range [1, Depths[node].Max()]
How_Many_of_D=DepthMap.Branch[(node,depth)].Count
double frequency= How_Many_of_D/|V|
S_node = S_node - frequency * Math.Log(frequency, 2)
Next
Entropies [node] = S_node
