Is translation memory a good CAT tool to support machine translation? Do you have any relevant recent studies?

I am trying to learn IBM's basic assembly language and I was wondering if there was a way of assembling BAL code on a Linux guest running on a mainframe?
I have nasm and as installed, but I think these are normally used for Intel processors rather than Z.
There is a tool chain in Linux so that you can write assembler. as as an assembler then link edit and go. However, assembler is just a “language” which depends on a broader eco-system of APIs.
For instance, on z/OS there are a number of manuals that document the interfaces to operating system services, authorization of assembler and other “operating system services” that are going to vary depending on the OS you are developing in.
If you want to code 390x assembler on Linux you can but you are using OS services in Linux which are very different than other OS’ like z/OS.
If you are interested in a compare and contrast of the architectural differences between z/OS and zLinux you will find this presentation enlightening.
Here are a few other possibilities, in no particular order:
IBM offers a commercially licensed HLASM for Linux on Z/LinuxONE. The standalone IBM Program Number for IBM HLASM is 5696-234, but it can also be licensed via other IBM operating systems for Z, such as z/OS. IBM distributes HLASM for Linux as a .rpm file, and it'll be something like asma90-1.6.0-47.rpm (where 47 is a revision level, the most current I see at the moment but subject to change).
Dignus offers a commercially licensed product known as Systems/ASM (or DASM for short).
z390 may be of interest: http://www.z390.org
Please note that z390 apparently hasn't been updated since 2012, so it likely won't include support for recent machine models' instructions.
Water meter (CPU meter) does not work on my Windows standalone h2o instance. It shows "not linux" message.
Using version h2o-3.10.4.6 of h2o on Windows 8.1.
Was the feature not yet implemented for Windows deployments or is there another thing i need to consider?
Thanks!
Water Meter is only implemented for Linux systems (by reading /proc/stat data), it won't work on neither Windows nor MacOS. From what I recall we don't have anyone working on a Windows/Mac version so if you're feel like it then you can contribute, you can check the source code here and the Linux implementation here. The tricky part is that it has to use open libraries (due to licensing).
When I search about linux kernel, I know that linux support for SMP architecture.
But I don't find any specification about the linux for AMP.
Does linux support for AMP?
Have any documents or specification for descripting about that?
Anyone help?
Linux has the remoteproc subsystem and the closely tied virtio and rpmsg. remoteproc can be use to boot up a firmware blob on the remote core and the communicated with it using rpmsg. Examples of such processors include iMX7 and Vybrid. Vybrid has a Cortex A5 and Cortex M4.
See the documentation on remoteproc. ARM's big.Little might also interest you.
Yes. AMP precedes SMP, and both techs precede Linux.
Asymmetric multi processing was used when 2 Pentium II 33MhZ processors ran in parallel on the same motherboard.
It's an old Operating System, that is still supported in the current Linux kernel, and is in fact getting a face lift since cloud computing (which is essentially the same concept as AMP, but across a network instead of across a motherboard.
There's no recent talks about AMP around Linux devs, but just ask some of the cloud devs they'll talk your ears off about AMP.
This may be a foolish question but I've been searching around for some time and don't see a clear answer. I've seen several microcontrollers advertised as running Unix-like software (Linux, Ubuntu) for example, the BeagleBone Black and Arduino Yun. Can someone please explain to me the benefit of this? So far I've used a couple of microcontrollers like the Arduino Uno/Duo, Freescale FRDM and STM32 Discovery which either didn't have this feature or I was not aware of it. I'm starting to see it more and more on newer microcontrollers so I'd like to know what it brings to the table.
Full disclosure: I've had minimal exposure to UNIX and its variants so far so please talk slowly and use small words =)
Hope to hear from you,

You get complex drivers already included Linux for free (USB, internet protocols, storage media and file systems).
You can use lots of free software for the things not included in the kernel.
It is simpler to develop software on a full OS (easier to debug, look what is going on, change the configuration, etc etc).
The drawback is that the real-time capabilities are generally worse than for some small RTOS, and it needs more resources (a couple of megabytes memory).
In the heart of all Android and iphone is a Embedded Linux System. Without getting too deep
Linux + Java = Android
BSD Unix variant + C/C++/Object C = iOS
Now if you get deeper the above two statement can be argued for accuracy
All Android devices run on ARM based microprocessors. Beaglebone is one such open source hardware platform with can run Android as well as Embedded Linux distribution and even a Ubuntu.
Now (IMHO) Ubuntu is primarily for desktop and server application. Many of the popular computer server farms uses Ubuntu.
Now STM32 is a ARM based CORTEX-M micro control. Once again (IMHO) is mostly used for bare metal embedded applications. I have hard that FreeRTOS can be ported to TM4C123 ARM Cortex-M TM4C123.
Now the advantages of using Linux base micro controller architecture are
OS is free for the most part
Larger community of users
The industry is moving towards open source
Lot of free resources get up to speed
Disadvantage are
Learning curve is pretty steep
Expect to stumble and fall a few time
Below to two good resources to learn Beaglebone open source development

HTH and good luck
I am looking for few tools that can give process or thread level power consumption for the Linux OS. I am looking for something similar to top , vmstat , mpstat , activity monitor (MAC) etc along with power usage even if approximate). I have seen a tool for Andorid, PowerTutor that does a good job for specific Andorid phones. Are there similar tools that can provide statistics for laptops/desktops etc for the linux OS? Any suggestion is appreciated.
PowerPack 3.0 is a software developed by Virginia Tech for direct measurements of the power consumption of a system’s major components:
http://scape.cs.vt.edu/software/powerpack-3-0/
The PAPI Api can provide several performance counters:
http://icl.cs.utk.edu/papi/overview/index.html
Power Analyzer for the ARM processor is a joint venture of the University of Michigan, the University of Colorado:
http://web.eecs.umich.edu/~panalyzer/
I couldn't see exact power values, just a lot of meta information on power (tested od 64bit Mint Maya). Nevertheless it might be useful to you:
PowerTOP is a Linux tool to diagnose issues with power consumption and power management. In addition to being a diagnostic tool, PowerTOP also has an interactive mode where you can experiment with various power management settings for cases where the Linux distribution has not enabled those settings.
PowerTOP reports which components in the system are most likely to blame for a higher-than-needed power consumption, ranging from software applications to active components in the system. Detailed screens are available for CPU C and P states, device activity, and software activity.
For many years, PowerTOP has been used heavily by Intel, Linux distributors, and various parts of the open source community. We're hoping that our users find the second generation even more useful for their needs.
