... With enough velocity, a spacecraft can break loose from the Earth's gravity and enter an orbit around the Sun, like that of a planet. If it then orbits the Sun with the same period as the Earth--one year--it may keep a fixed position relative to Earth. ... If the distance is just right--about 4 times the distance to the Moon or 1/100 the distance to the Sun--the spacecraft, too, will need just one year to go around the Sun, and will keep its position between the Sun and the Earth. ...

This module provides for loading of executable code and modules into the server at start-up or restart time. ... On Windows, mod_dll was used in beta release 1.3b1 through 1.3b5. mod_so combines these two modules into a single module for all operating systems. ... Because Apache for Windows does not have the Configure program of Apache for Unix, the module's source file must be added to the ApacheCore project file, and its symbols must be added to the os\win32\modules.c file. ... Module: mod_so . ...

... The body of photometric and astrometric data on stars in the Milky Way Galaxy has been growing very fast in recent years (Hipparcos/Tycho, OGLE-3, 2-Mass, DENIS, UCAC2, SDSS, RAVE, Pan Starrs, Hermes, ...) and at the time of the General Assembly the launch of ESAтАЩs Gaia mission, which will measure astrometric data of unprecedented precision for ~ 10 9 stars, will be less than three years away. ... Producing models and fitting them to the available data will involve complex software. ...

ELF-VLF ADVANCED SIGNAL ANALYZER AND SAMPLER SAS-2 . ... Therefore the SAS-2 must be input signals in the band 20Hz…16kHz (or 20kHz) from as other SI. In this case the SAS-2 must get the wide-band ELF-VLF input signal form the . ... e) Onboard Time: The time is needed to program scheduled data collections ! ... MODE 2 : In this mode the SAS-2 investigates that the input signals appearing in the three (six) input channels are a whistler or not. ... Address of input channel is added to each sample. ...

The idea of component-oriented programming is that in the course of implementation of various software projects a programmer (or a programmers team) accumulates a library of reused software fragments that are used in different projects. ... To solve such problems there are some special syntax means in Actor Prolog that support component-oriented programming. ... A package in Actor Prolog is a set of classes linked by implication. ... Actor Prolog supports visual component-oriented programming. ...

... To study the spectral emission of these sources it is necessary to perform timing analysis and phase resolved spectroscopy, but these tasks are really cumbersome if performed with the tools based on the imaging extraction methods usually used for coded mask instruments. Here, we present the software we have developed for the ISGRI instrument which allows to extract in a fast way light curves, pulse profiles, and phase resolved spectra, making data reduction a much easier task. ...
