The Apache HTTP Server provides a mechanism for storing information in named variables that are called environment variables . ... For additional flexibility, the directives provided by mod_setenvif allow environment variables to be set on a per-request basis, conditional on characteristics of particular requests. ... As discussed above, the environment passed to CGI scripts includes standard meta-information about the request in addition to any variables set within the Apache configuration. ...

... Stars . ... Cepheid variable stars have been known since the 18th century. ... Regularly brightening to a peak over days, weeks or months before fading these variable stars were remarkable curiosities to astronomers in past centuries.€а The term Cepheid is taken from the star Delta Cephei in the constellation of Cepheus, which was identified as variable€а in 1784 by the teenaged prodigy John Goodricke (1764-96). ...

... xntpd is an operating system daemon which sets and maintains the system time-of-day in synchronism with Internet standard time servers. xntpd is a complete implementation of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) version 3, as defined by RFC-1305, but also retains compatibility with version 1 and 2 servers as defined by RFC- 1059 and RFC-1119, respectively. xntpd does all computations in 64-bit fixed point arithmetic and requires no floating point support. ...

... Return to the Kernel page . ... This article is part of the LWN Porting Drivers to 2.6 series . The 2.6 kernel makes extensive use of per-CPU data - arrays containing one object for each processor on the system. Per-CPU variables are not suitable for every task, but, in situations where they can be used, they do offer a couple of advantages: . Per-CPU variables have fewer locking requirements since they are (normally) only accessed by a single processor. ... DEFINE_PER_CPU(type, name); . ...

In this talk I give an introduction to generalizations of the Riemann zeta function called "Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series". Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series are sums in several variables whose coefficients involve Gauss sums and also reflect the combinatorics of a given root system. ... These functions and their residues unify and generalize a number of examples which have been previously treated individually, often with applications to number theory. ...

What follows is a brief list of benchmarks and discoveries that shaped our ideas on atoms and nuclei. ... Discovery of electrons . ... Comparing this to Faraday's results, one could get " Avogadro's number ", the number of (say) hydrogen atoms in one gram of hydrogen--an enormously large number. ... Similarly, energized atoms are only allowed to exist in one of a number of energy levels. ... By the way, Avogadro's number is 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (6.02 10 23 ) molecules in 1 gr hydrogen. ...

Sometimes we require more than one line for a statement Print *, 'This is a long output line',& ' this is the second part',& ' and this is the third part!' Nowadays, in the free form, we continue a line with the symbol "&" (called ampersand), i.e. with the sign & at the end of the old line instead of an almost arbitrary character in column 6 of the new line. ... Exclamation mark in column 1 of course means a comment line also in the old fixed form. ... 3.1) What does the following line mean? ...

. Comment on J0238+1636 . Our data show that in June 1996 the source had an unusually low flux density with an angular size of 0.6". The source is usually highly variable, strong and extremely compact. However, Chen, Zhang & Sjouwerman (1999) also claim the source was resolved with EVN observations at 5 GHz about 8 months after our observation when the flux density was still unusually low.

Underdetermined sets is a new type of data structures (terms) developed in Actor Prolog . ... The point is that an underdetermined set can include some indefinite rest (a tail) like a list in usual Prolog . At the same time, the order of elements of an underdetermined set can be arbitrary one and it does not affect results of unification of underdetermined sets. Moreover, Actor Prolog guarantees that a rest of an underdetermined set never contains elements that are explicitly given in the set. ...

In the scalar Helmholtz equation the variables are separated in 11 physically interesting coordinate systems [ 55 ], however for the vector field containing 3 scalar functions, the complete separation of variables is possible only in 6 systems: Cartesian, 3 cylindrical, conical and spherical ones ([ 55 ], Ch.13). Therefore, the formal solution suggested in 1927 by F. Moeglich [ 368 ] for the spheroidal coordinates was practically usefulness until the work of Sh. ...
