... A modern driver for a device will find out the bus-resource configuration without you having to tell it anything. ... In the worst case you must hard-code the bus-resources into the kernel (or a module) and recompile.

SUMMARY OF SWIFT OBSERVATIONS OF GAMMA RAY BURSTS N. Gehrels, on behalf of the Swift Team Code 661, NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, MD 20771, USA, E-mail: gehrels@milkyway.gsfc.nasa.gov ABSTRACT Swift is a NASA MIDEX mission with primary objective to study gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and use them as probes of conditions in the high-redshift Universe. ... SHORT GRBS At Swift's launch, the greatest mystery of GRB astronomy was the nature of short-duration, hard-spectrum bursts. ...

... Searches for Star Formation in Damped Systems . ... The objective was to measure the star-formation rates in these systems. However, no H emission was detected above our limits of Wm -2 , corresponding to star formation rates ( q 0 =0.5). ... For q 0 =0.5 our limits are in conflict with the star formation rates predicted under the assumption that the high- z DLAs are the fully-formed galactic-disk counterparts of today's massive spiral galaxies. ...
