  Carbon (computing)
Carbon is the codename of Apple Computer's APIs for the Macintosh operating system, which permits a good degree of backward compatibility between code written to run on the classic Mac OS, and the newer Mac OS X.
Carbon is often confused and/or compared with Cocoa, but the two are complementary and are solving different problems.
In general, Carbon is the lower level APIs, whereas Cocoa is a higher level application framework.

 CoCoA 3.5 Help   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-04)
CoCoA is a computer algebra system for doing "Computations in Commutative Algebra." Since its first version CoCoA has been designed to offer maximum ease of use and flexibility to the mathematician with little or no knowledge of computers.
For computations which temporarily require a different term-ordering (for example, to eliminate variables or to homogenize ideals), the system automatically changes the term-ordering to a more suitable one, performs the computation, and then restores the initial term-ordering and gives its output with respect to this one.
CoCoA accepts any ordering that can be defined by means of an n x n matrix of integers (this is not a real restriction if one is interested, for instance, in finding all possible Groebner bases of a given ideal).

 Cash 'n' Carrion / The Register > Cocoa in a Nutshell   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-04)
Cocoa is a complete API set, class library, framework, and development environment for building applications and tools to run on Mac OS®; X. With over 240 classes, Cocoa is divided into two essential frameworks: Foundation and Application Kit.
Above all else, Cocoa is a toolkit for creating Mac OS X application interfaces, and it provides access to all of the standard Aqua® interface components such as menus, toolbars, windows, buttons, to name a few.
Cocoa in a Nutshell is divided into two parts, with the first part providing a series of overview chapters that describe specific features of the Cocoa frameworks.

 Dummies::Polishing Your Development Tools for Cocoa Programming
Cocoa is a collection of tools and libraries that allows you to get the most out of Mac OS X programming.
The object-oriented nature of Cocoa, combined with a large collection of frameworks to perform all sorts of tasks, forms an unbeatable code-reuse duo.
Computer programmers can be a lazy bunch, not wanting to repeat a single task.

 Cocoa 101: Object-Oriented Programming for the Masses - Part 1 - OSNews.com
Reading up on Cocoa, I found out that it was an object-oriented framework with a clean and elegant design built using the Objective-C language, and that it had been the official development environment for the NeXTSTEP OS which Apple had purchased back in 1997.
So I decided to bite the bullet and learn how to program in Cocoa, and thanks to Apple's brilliant move of bundling best-of-breed development tools with the OS for free, I could build my own apps without having to pay a single cent.
Most Cocoa programming guides expect you to be an expert in C or C++ programming, which I most certainly am not, so it took me much longer to wrap my head around some of the more difficult language constructs of Objective-C than it might someone else.

 MacDevCenter.com -- Integrating Xgrid into Cocoa Applications, Part 1
Admittedly it is still in an early stage of development, but the silence from Apple was almost deafening for a technology that may well prove to be one of the most significant in years.
In the future, computers will seek each other out, sharing the computational load, distributing work to where resources are idle.
We are witnessing the beginning of the Democratization of Distributed Computing, and it didn't even warrant a mention in January's keynote.

There are two basic strategies for optimizing the performance of the Buchberger algorithm for computing a Gröbner basis of a homogeneous ideal: minimalization of the number of critical paris which have to be treated, and optimization of the reduction process for the remaining pairs.
The main part of this program is an implementation of the algorithm described in the paper ``How to compute the canonical module of a set of points'' by Stefan Beck and Martin Kreuzer.
This program computes the rank of the i-th module in the linear part of the resolution, if one is given the first matrix of linear forms.

 Ars Technica: Mac OS X DP2: A Preview - Page 5 - (12/99)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-04)
Cocoa widgets look and behave like Mac OS X Server widgets, which are basically NEXTSTEP widgets repainted to look sort of like Mac OS.
Cocoa applications also support the (un)usual array of NeXT-like functionality including universal tear-off menus, NeXT-like window resizing widgets, and so on--not particularly offensive, but not very Mac-like either.
Java applications built on the Cocoa APIs are nearly indistinguishable from other Cocoa applications, but I'm not sure why anyone but a die-hard Java devotee would build an application with a cross-platform language like Java that can only run on a single platform--Mac OS X being the only place where Cocoa is available.

 Cocoa and slaves
Two documentary filmmakers say that at least some of the workers who harvest the cocoa bean from which chocolate is made are kept as slaves, locked up at night and beaten if they try to flee.
But before it’s processed, chocolate is beans, found inside the pod of the cocoa tree, grown in countries around the equator.
They had cut cocoa pods for years and had never been paid.

 Dummies::Saving Time and Energy with Cocoa Programming Tips
The lesson here is that if you expect a control to have some kind of method and it doesn't, check one of the superclasses of that class to see whether one of them has the function you need.
Programmers who are migrating to Cocoa from other languages may be surprised to discover that Cocoa bases all its measurements on a different coordinate system.
Whereas most computer languages define the upper-left corner of a view as the origin, Cocoa designates the bottom-left corner as the origin.

In Part 1 of this two-part extravaganza we covered a lot of ground, with barely a mention of Cocoa.

For example, the bottom-level block is now labeled "Darwin." Darwin is Apple's name for the open source distribution of the Mac OS X kernel.
First, they emphasizes the fact that Darwin is to be synchronized with Mac OS X. The current Darwin release available at Apple's web site is somewhat behind Mac OS X's internal development, but Darwin will be updated when Mac OS X ships to be exactly identical to the kernel in the commercial release.
Similarly, Java lost its API block and was merely mentioned as an alternate language for Cocoa development.
