Candygram is a Python implementation of Erlang concurrency primitives. Erlang is widely respected for its elegant built-in facilities for concurrent programming. This package attempts to emulate those facilities as closely as possible in Python. With Candygram, developers can send and receive messages between threads using semantics nearly identical to those in the Erlang language.

Down with Determinants!, by Sheldon Axler. “This paper shows how linear algebra can be done better without determinants. The standard proof that a square matrix of complex numbers has an eigenvalue uses determinants. The simpler and clearer proof presented here provides more insight and avoids determinants.”
Terence Parr Introduces ANTLR 3.0, interview at Artima.com. It got a book, too. And, I think, Ruby output.

The Camellia Library is an open source Image Processing & Computer Vision library. Written in plain C, it is cross-platform (Unix / Linux, Windows) and robust. It already includes a lot of functions for image processing (filtering, morphological mathematics, labelling, warping, drawing, project/backproject, color conversion, loading/saving images, etc.), most of them being highly speed-optimized. Provides Ruby bindings.
