... Abstract Open an existing E-kernel file for reading. Required_Reading EK . ... Detailed_Input fname is the name of an existing E-kernel file to be opened for read access. ... This handle is used to identify the file to other EK routines. ... Opening an EK file with this routine makes the EK accessible to the CSPICE EK readers ekrcec_c ekrced_c ekrcei_c all of which expect an EK file handle as an input argument. ... Examples 1) Open the file my.ek for read access: ekopr_c ( "my.ek", &handle ); . ...

Apache 1.1 and earlier let modules handle POST and PUT requests by themselves. The module would, on its own, determine whether the request had an entity, how many bytes it was, and then called a function ( read_client_block ) to get the data. ... This step also sends a 100 Continue response to HTTP/1.1 clients, so should not be called until the module is *definitely* ready to read content. (otherwise, the point of the 100 response is defeated). ... Finally, call ap_get_client_block in a loop. ...

... Though the box routines are the preferred way to read blanking information, it is possible to read the blanking information associated with an image directly. Also a routine is needed to write blanking information. ... These routines are: subroutine xyflgrd(tno,index,mask) subroutine xyflgwr(tno,index,mask) subroutine xymkrd(tno,index,runs,n,nread) subroutine xymkwr(tno,index,runs,n) Here tno is the image handle returned by xyopen , index gives the row number (analogous to xyread and xywrite ). ...

... If you have a program to convert data to MIDAS input format, fine. ... All you need to do is cannibalize the part of the existing program that reads the data, and add a short piece of code to re-format the data first as a flat ASCII file, one measurement per line; and then convert this to *.tbl format. ... It's just like the process of creating a program-star table. ... You may decide to write a short MIDAS script to apply your format-conversion program and the edited *.fmt file to each night's data...

... LWN.net FAQ . ... Read-copy-update (RCU) is a mutual exclusion technique which can operate without locking most of the time. It can yield significant performance benefits when the data to be protected is accessed via a pointer, is read frequently, changed rarely, and references to the structure are not held while a kernel thread sleeps. The core idea behind RCU is that, when the data requires updating, a pointer to a new structure containing the new data can be stored immediately. ...

... Star Atlas . ... stars . ... Nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium powers stars, but fusion requires a lot of energy. Where does this energy come from? ... You re in good company: This question also stumped the physicists who first tried to understand nuclear fusion in stars. In a star s core, all atomic nuclei have been separated from their electrons, so each hydrogen atom is really just a proton and thus holds a positive charge. ...

GiST home | Introduction | ... GiST is a height-balanced tree structure with tree nodes containing (p, ptr) pairs, where p is a predicate ( attribute ),which is used as a search key, and ptr is the pointer to data for a leaf node or a pointer to another tree node for a non-leaf node. ... Every node contains between min and max index entries unless it is the root . ... For each index entry (p, ptr) in a non-leaf node, p is true when instantiated with the values of any tuple reachable from ptr . ...
