Polarization properties of two pulsars R. N. Manchester (ATNF, CSIRO, Australia) . ... Abstract Mean pulse polarization properties at 1.4, 4.6 and 8.3 GHz and rotation measures are presented for two pulsars with unusually wide profiles. PSR J0437-4715 is a millisecond pulsar with significant emission over at least 80% of the pulse period. It shows a complicated variation of linear position angle across the pulse indicating substantial departures from a dipole field structure. ...

... The ALMA Common Software (ACS) is a CORBA-based framework that provides a common and homogeneous infrastructure for the whole ALMA software, from high-level data flow applications down to instrument control (Schwarz et al., ... In this domain, ACS provides a generic abstraction of hardware control and monitor points that is independent of the software underneath. This abstraction layer is coupled to the hardware using the DevIO (Device Input/Output) interface, based on the Bridge design pattern. ...
