- Kana no quiz
- Kana no quiz is a little educational tool to memorize Japanese kana (hiragana & katakana) pronouncing in an easy fashion. This free/libre software is written in Python and is cross-platfrom (working both on Unices and Windows using different default interface). It features several ways and many options to either teach the complete beginner or test the wizard skill on kana recognition and pronoucing.

Problems can be solved on-screen, and high-quality Postscript can be output for publication.
Its features include
- Definition of multiple load impedances (at different frequencies)
- Addition of discrete (L, C and transformer) and line components (open and closed stubs)
- Connection in series and parallel
- A 'virtual' component switches from impedance to admittance to help understand parallel components
- Charts that work in real impedances (not normalized ones)
- Generates a 'log' file with textual results at each intermediate step
- Stores load and circuit configuration separately, permitting several solutions without re-defining the other.

- SPINA
- SPINA is free software that facilitates the calculation of constant structure parameters of endocrine feedback control systems. A first successful implementation applies to the evaluation of thyroid function. It allows for calculating the thyroid's maximum secretory capacity (GT or SPINA-GT) and the sum activity of peripheral 5'-deiodinases (GD or SPINA-GD) from levels of TSH, (F)T4 and (F)T3 that have been determined once only (SPINA Thyr). This method is increasingly used in experimental research. SPINA Thyr has been evaluated in clinical trials covering more than 10,000 subjects with various disorders of thyroid homeostasis. Additional applications targeting other endocrine feedback loops are currently being developed or prepared, respectively. SPINA Thyr is a free application that calculates GT and GD. Source code is provided for Lazarus and Free Pascal. The program is compatible with most desktop GNU/Linux distributions, Mac OS X and Windows.
