... It is generally accepted that the mechanism, widely known as the Antikythera mechanism, was made in Rhodes at the height of the Roman Republic, as the island was known as the source of interesting mechanical automata. You can tell just by looking at it that the device is part of a larger object, and it is also obvious that there are geared wheels and other rotational elements within it. The device undoubtedly is an early computer and could be seen as the first planetarium. ...

Next: MARK5 and EVLBI Up: Recording Systems. ... These are specified in the SCHED station catalog with the paramters CONTROL , DAR , RECORDER and DISK . The first element is the control system -- what software (and hardware) is used to control the recording system.

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. ...
