. The image is a composite of separate exposures made by the WFC3 instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. Three filters were used to sample broad wavelength ranges in the near infrared. The color results from assigning different hues (colors) to each monochromatic image. In this case, the assigned colors are: F105W (Y) blue; F125W (J) green; F160W (H) red. NASA/ESA/G. Illingworth/R.

Dynamic Routing; Configuration of Overloaded Interacting Servers N.D. Vvedenskaya, Moscow, I ITP We consider a symmetrical network with k servers and l Poisson input flows. The proto col uses dynamic routing: each flow is assigned to a subgroup of m servers, up on its arrival a message is directed to the least busy of these servers. ... 6 One server. ... Therefore it is sufficient to consider the equal overload of m , k m m servers caused by the equal overheat of several flows. ...

International Q-Days and D-Days ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Classification of Days (deduced from Kp indices) The selection of the quietest days (Q-days) and most disturbed days (D-days) of each month is deduced from the Kp indices on the basis of three criteria for each day: 1. ... In order to indicate such a situation, selected days which do not satisfy certain absolute criteria are marked as follows. ...

... This software appears to conflict with use of the ports for serial device control. If you are using a USB to serial converter, then you will need read/write access to /dev/ttyUSB0 or something similar. ... Alternatively, make the device available to the world by (1) as root chmod a+rw /dev/ttyUSB0 whenever a USB device converted is inserted or powered on or (2) adding a MODE="666" entry to the appropriate line of a rules file in /etc/udev/rules.d . ...

... The term Plug-and-Play (PnP) has various meanings. ... In the sense used in this HOWTO, the configuration is only that of configuring PnP bus-resources and letting the device drivers know about it. ... For the case of Linux, it is often just a driver giving a command to set the bus-resources in it's device or determining how the BIOS has set them. ... Linux still is not really a PnP operating system and seems to mainly rely on and device drivers and the PnP BIOS to configure bus-resources for...

... Operations of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) require the creation of stable and e#cient observation schedules in an environment where inputs to the plan can change daily. A process and architecture is presented which supports the creation of e#cient and stable plans by dividing scheduling into long term and short term components. ... The short term scheduler builds e#cient week long observation schedules by selecting observations which have plan windows open within the week. ...

... One of the widely used models of neural network is the multi-layered perceptron [6]. The model network has layers of input and output elements called neurons. ... An input vector is put on the input layer, passes through the hidden layers, and arrives at the output layer. The corresponding output vector is determined by calculation of the neuron activity level for each layer using already known values of neuron activity of the previous layers. ...

In Actor Prolog a resident is a special mechanism that helps processes to inspect state of other processes. A resident observes the state of a specified (target) process and if the state of the process changes (for instance, after message handling) it proves a specified predicate of the process. ... Work of the resident. ... Any change of the list of target processes or arguments of resident function results in activation of the resident and repeated collection of information in the target worlds. ...
