	Cross-platform interchange - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In a cross-platform interchange, instead of the two opposite directions of a single line sharing an island platform, two similar directions of two different lines share it.
		It occurs in a system with island platforms, a single platform in between the two directions of travel, or two platforms between the tracks, connected by level corridors.
		The upper platforms serve Henri-Bourassa (orange line) and Honoré-Beaugrand (green line) trains, entering downtown; the lower platforms serve Côte-Vertu (orange line) and Angrignon (green line) trains, leaving downtown.

	Cross-Platform Text Size Differences
		Every text sample was generated in a browser on the indicated platform using the same HTML test file, which displays the text passage in a one-cell table 100 pixels wide.
		All browsers on all platforms display it this size (in pixels), although its physical size (measured in millimetres, for example) varies on different computers according to the resolution (i.e., pixel spacing) of their monitors:
		They are merely conventional values assumed by the software on these platforms.

	THE TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS OF DEVELOPING CROSS-PLATFORM MULTIMEDIA APPLICATIONS IN MUSIC EDUCATION
		One of the major decisions facing every developer is the platform or platforms for which software is to be developed … a decision that, by necessity, can eliminate a large number of potential users.
		The focus on only these two platforms is not in any way meant to downplay the significance or validity of those who are developing software for use on UNIX or other alternative platforms.
		Because the sound-producing hardware and graphic processing on the Mac and PC platforms remain incompatible, the manner in which the various forms of multimedia are accessed varies greatly between the Mac and PC.

	Writing Cross-Platform Software - Getting Started
		It is important to support the native interface on the platform your application is running on.
		Latent or unreproducible bugs on one platform often will become readily reproducible on another because of the different environment or layout of memory.
		The work required to make a single set of sources work for more than one platform increases its robustness, makes maintenance easier and improves the reusability of your code.

	Intel® Cross-Platform Manageability Program
		Through the Intel® Cross-Platform Manageability Program, Intel is implementing standards-based core platform-manageability and automation capabilities into a variety of Intel building blocks-including components and platforms for cell phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), tablets, notebooks, desktops, servers, routers, switches and storage input/output (I/O) devices.
		Intel® Active Management Technology is the technology underlying the cross-platform manageability capabilities that Intel is building into its platforms through the Intel® CPMP.
		The highly manageable platforms will deliver immediate business value when IT shops deploy the hardware and supporting third-party management-software products, and it also will prepare the way for tomorrow's autonomic and utility computing-based service-oriented architectures.

	darron schall :: XUL + Flash = Cross Platform Projectors
		Because Netscape is platform nuetral, and because XPCOM enables interaction with the OS, it seems natural to marry the.swf plugin with XPCOM to create cross platform desktop applications, running on top of Mozilla (but transparent to the end user).
		As I said, I didn't have a chance to test this on a Mac, but because Mozilla is cross platform, it should work in theory.
		Since different platform has a different plugin, the projector program will need to be compiled for the different platforms also.

	Cross Browser and Cross Platform Issues
		The Web is the first area of design that requires designers to understand cross platform differences—that is, to understand how different types of computers display items on their screens.
		Because PCs are the most common platform, most Web designers set the gamma control panel value to represent the PC gamma and design within that space.
		This means you can simulate the way a graphic will appear on the different platforms.

	Cross-platform PowerPoint
		Animations in PowerPoint on both platforms were the same until the arrival of PowerPoint 2002 for Windows arrived, which showcased motion-path animations and more.
		A company may use both Windows and Mac machines, or there might be a sales presentation that needs to be compatible with whatever platform a client has, or a designer hired to create a presentation might use a Mac when the presenter is ussing a Windows machine.
		Newer versions of PowerPoint on both platforms may not allow the editing of certain features, but will allow these features to be viewed in slideshow mode.

	What is cross-platform? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
		Cross-platform computing is becoming increasingly important as local-area networks become better at linking machines of different types.
		Many applications for Windows and the Macintosh, for example, now produce binary-compatible files, which means that users can switch from one platform to the other without converting their data to a new format.
		Refers to the capability of software or hardware to run identically on different platforms.

	Cross Platform Woes
		PNG stores the gamma value used by the source platform which created the image, in a standard place in the file which browsers, image viewers and authoring tools know how to read and adjust for.
		So the gross lightness and contrast differences we have just seen are compensated for automatically, without the image designer or the reader having to make any adjustments themselves.
		But existing image formats have no way of storing this information.

	The Cross-Platform Manifesto
		I recall the judge gave other examples, for example IBM's support of Lotus (Notes is a Windows-independent platform, and Microsoft gave IBM a lot of grief on their license terms for bundling Windows with IBM computers).
		Just try making use of platform specific code in a Java app - I was completely frustrated by the inability of the javax.comm serial communications package to show the icons for the Phone and Printer ports when it was run on a Mac.
		The platform-specific layer is clean and localized enough now that ZooLib could be bounds to a totally new platform like, say, QNX in two or three weeks of work.

	CAD Design Flows Development in a Cross-Platform Computing Environment
		The NT-UNIX platform poses various technical challenges when developing the CAD design flows consisting of tools from both platforms.
		These tools have to work together on a shared design database while effectively utilizing common infrastructure scripts, despite the fact that each computing platform supports a different scripting environment.
		However, due to the complexity of migrating UNIX-centric legacy CAD tools and scripts to an NT environment, a mixed operating system platform* for CAD design has become a computing reality.

	Dynamic HTML: The Definitive Reference
		Even when the two browsers have similar objects with similar properties, the syntax for the property names may be different enough that you need to use internal branching for your application to work seamlessly across platforms.
		Typically, a platform denotes any hardware and/or software system that forms the basis for further product development.
		The term platform has multiple meanings in web application circles, depending on how you slice the computing world.

	Cross-Platform Issues
		There are several cross-platform issues to consider when using CHP or any web page creation program, or for that matter doing anything involving more than one platform.
		The.zip compression format stores folder hierarchies, so you pack it up on one platform, then unpack it on the other platform, and all is good.
		I have found that the current incarnation of Windows is seriously flawed as a platform for creation of web-based content.

	More Cross Platform Woes
		PNG stores the chromaticity values - the position of the triangle corners, plus the white point - used by the source platform which created the image, in a standard place in the file which browsers, image viewers and authoring tools know how to read and adjust for.
		Together with the gamma, which we discussed earlier, this permits automatic adjustment to get very close to the colors you would measure from the original image.
		Clearly, all the colors move - they become differnt colors.

	XML.com: Cool XUL Provides Cross-Platform UI
		Reliable conformant implementations of the standards across platforms can finally enable a truly cross-platform UI toolkit to be built on top of them.
		XUL itself is not framed as a standard; rather it is a technology invented by Netscape and Mozilla.org.
		Krock said that the maturation of W3C XML standards and support for them is what has made XUL possible.

	SWT, XML Put True Cross-platform GUIs Within Reach
		(Not all implementations are feature-complete; you can check the current status at Eclipse.org.) Sure, some platforms have widgets and capabilities that others don't have, but all the implementations include a core set of widgets—and programming to the core set from Java is identical across all the platforms.
		Some Java developers—and Sun itself—object to SWT because it ties applications to platform-specific code, thus breaking the cross-platform nature of applications written without such dependencies-—such as those written with Swing.
		The developers on the Mozilla project, faced with a similar problem—how to create a cross-platform browser—came up with a different type of solution, called XUL (XML-based User Interface Language), which uses an XML-formatted language to define a description of the interface objects.
