It all started back in 1979 when the diskdrive manufacturer come with the bright idea to make a new transfer protocol. ... This protocol wasn't an ANSI standard, so NCR join Shugart and the ANSI committee X3T9.2 was formed. The new name for the protocol was, Small Computer Systems Interface, SCSI. ... ANSI finished the SCSI standard in 1986. SCSI-II devices was released in 1988 and was an official standard in 1994. ... SCSI is in opposite to IDE/ATA very flexible. ... Datawidth 8 bits. ...

Core JavaScript contains a core set of objects, such as Array , Date , and Math , and a core set of language elements such as operators, control structures, and statements. ... A JavaScript primitive value is a member of one of the following types: undefined , null , Boolean , number , or string . ... World Wide Web . ...

This note outlines how to configure the computers needed to run DIMMWIT. ... dimmwit : ICE (single-board computer in a box) that runs the Starlight Express CCD camera, to which it is connected by a USB interface. dimmwithost : displays the finder application via the X protocol (finder actually runs on dimmwit). Acts as a file server; both the finder software and the DIMM data are stored on dimmwithost. ... mkdir -p /data/oberon/data/finder . chown coast:coast /data/oberon/data/finder . ...

... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

... Federal Information Processing Standards Puplication (FIBS PUB 146-1) . ... PIPS 146 adopted the Government Open Systems Interconnection Profile (GOSIP) which defines a common set of data communication protocols that enable systems developed by different vendors to interoperate and the users of different applications on those systems to exchange information. ... 4.1 USE OF THE LAYERED PROTOCOL SPECIFICATIONS 12 . ... 4.2.3.3 Network Layer Protocol Identification 15 . ...

The original files with the data were in different formats. ... Such files were named "standard data files" and linked to the database. They can be easily transformed to any desirable format by a code. Here we present two simple computer programs of this kind. ... When running the code, you can specify columns in the output file: wavelength, energy (eV) or wavenumber (cm -1 ) as the first column, and complex refractive index or dielectric function as the second and third columns. ...

... For whatever reason, there are people that hate NFS (Network File System). ... Mark has claimed, and it has been widely repeated, that it is impossible to provide concurrent access to mbox-format files with IMAP. ... In the case of IMAP though, the answers being offered about mbx over NFS or about concurrent access to mbox files are not the rare kind of answers. ... The way the most common IMAP server implementations work is that you connect to a master IMAP server process, and then you authenticate...

... Standard Commands . ... TwistedActor.Actor is core code for writing an actor: an instrument control computer (ICC) or hub-based script that does something useful. This manual describes the standard commands and keywords that any actor based on TwistedActor.Actor will support. All actors based on TwistedActor typically support the following standard commands (plus additional device-specific commands documented in that actor's manual). ... Connect one or more devices (if not already connected). ...

NCR 53CF94, 53CF96 FLYER INFORMATION The NCR 53CF94 and 53CF96 Fast SCSI Controllers are high-performance CMOS devices conforming to ANSI standards X3.131-1986 (SCSI-1) and X3.131-199X (SCSI-2) for the Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI). ... The NCR 53CF94 and 53CF96 feature 10 megabytes per second (MB/s) Fast SCSI-2 data transfers, improved single-ended SCSI operation, a 24-bit transfer counter, and enhanced SCSI-2 command functionality. ...

The NTP standard specifies an extension which provides cryptographic authentication of received NTP packets. ... The specification allows any one of possibly 4 billion keys, numbered with 32-bit key identifiers, to be used to authenticate an association. ... In the case of MD5, the keys are 64 bits (8 bytes). xntpd reads its keys from a file specified using the -k command line option or the keys statement in the configuration file. ... A zero key in NTP format would be specified as 8080808080808080 . ...

... We present the main new features of the Aladin interactive sky atlas (version 2.0, November 2003). ... Aladin is able to build a metadata tree from the description of a dataset, in order to easily browse through all data available in a sky region on a server or in a local folder. ... Version 2, released just after ADASS 2003 meeting is a major new release implementing several new features and enhancing the role of Aladin as a VO portal (Figure 1). ... VOTable has been the first IVOA standard. ...

... This table shows how each STEP-PATT pattern measures the background for a science exposure. Listed are the STEP-PATT number, the number of spectrum bins for which substepping occurs, the number of background bins measured, the diodes used to measure the background, the fraction of the total time spent measuring flux on the science diodes, the gratings for which the STEP-PATT is appropriate, and the shortest exposure that can be used for that pattern. ...
