The programs included are:

• DiscJockey - selects songs from the database to be played by 'ices' based upon how many tracks by that artist and how long it's been since the last track was played.
• InsertList - adds tracks to the database.
• log - cgi program to generates web pages to find out what songs were played at a certain time on certain days.
• playlist - cgi program to generates web pages to display information on all artists and tracks played.

I have run the programs on the following operating systems:

• FreeBSD
• Linux

There are two generations of systems, the first generation I used MySQL for the database and the disc jockey and web page generation cgi programs all accessed the MySQL database. I found that web page hits took too long to access the database so the second generation stores the data in flat files (still relational) and has a program running that maintains and distributes the information.
