... Omdetect uses two different algorithms for source-detection - one is optimised for detecting point-like sources, and the second is optimised for detecting extended sources. ... Two separate lists are used mainly because the detection algorithms for point and extended sources are different, and also because the photometry of the two types is done differently. ... The number of pixels that an extended source contains. ... Point-source detection algorithm . ... Extended-source detection Algorithm . ...

... BBSYN is used to set the frequency for the BBC or digital filter assigned to each baseband channel (subband channel in EVLA terminology). ... All baseband channels assigned to the same physical BBC should be assigned the same frequency. ... For the VLBA DAR and MkIV systems, the baseband frequency must be set on even 10 kHz frequencies. ... The PFB personality of the RDBE, ( DBE = RDBE_PFB ) has rather rigid baseband frequency options. ... Argument: Up to 16 frequencies in MHz. ...

... I am developing an Informed Prefetching and Caching system as part of the kernel in which it is very important that the memory assigned to hold the data does not get swapped to disk. Without any thought to swapping I used vmalloc() to assign memory to the data structures of the Informed prefetching system. ... I later realized that most probably the pages assigned using vmalloc() were getting swapped to the disk and when I referenced them, they were brought from the disk rather than memory. ...

... The choice of which type of electricity is called "positive" and which "negative" was made around 1750 by Ben Franklin, early American scientist and man of many talents (the stamp on the left commemorates his role as first US postmaster--and colonial postmaster before that). ... Franklin knew of two types of electric charge, depending on the material one rubbed. ... Later, when electric batteries were discovered, scientists naturally assigned the direction of the flow of current to be from (+) to (-...

This handle is used to identify the file in subsequent calls to other DAF routines. ... 2) If the specified file has already been opened for write access, the error SPICE(DAFRWCONFLICT) is signaled. 3) If the specified file has already been opened by a non-DAF routine, the error SPICE(DAFIMPROPOPEN) is signaled. 4) If the specified file cannot be opened without exceeding the maximum number of files, the error SPICE(DAFFTFULL) is signaled. ...

. The shell uses a command called test to evaluate conditional expressions. Full details of this command can be found in the test manual page. For example: if test ! -f $FILE then if test "$WARN" = "yes" then echo "$FILE does not exist" fi fi . First, we test to see if the filename specified by the variable $FILE exists and is a regular file. If it does not then we test to see if the variable $WARN is assigned the value yes , and if it is a message that the filename does not exist is displayed.

Next: A Preliminary Investigation Up: Spatial Corrections of ROSAT Previous: Introduction . ... These tasks bin a time sorted photon event list based on an assigned phase that corresponds to the 402 second period of the wobble. ... The fundamental limitation of this method is how many source counts you have for centroiding each binned image section. ... Once the phase binned qpoes have been shifted in x,y so as to align the source centroid, they are restacked using 'qpappend_ftsi'. ...

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. ...

Chapter 11. Specifying OpenGL Environment Variable Settings . ... Several antialiasing methods are available and you can select between them by setting the __GL_FSAA_MODE environment variable appropriately. ... To see the available values for __GL_FSAA_MODE along with their descriptions, run: nvidia-settings --query=fsaa --verbose . The __GL_FSAA_MODE environment variable uses the same integer values that are used to configure FSAA through nvidia-settings and the NV-CONTROL X extension. ...
