... The scheduling routines assist in creating an observing list (stored in the startable) from scratch or from another list stored on disk, and computing the visibility of the stars in a specific night and array configuration. The date of observation is taken from the variable date , and the array name from the variable systemid . If these are not defined, defaults are used for date (the next night) and for array (NPOI). ... addstar , stars _char Add one or more stars to the startable. ...

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. ...

... The SMS program is a critical endeavor to investigate whether the predictions of standard cold dark matter cosmology are consistent with the observed matter distribution in the Milky Way halo.
