Around an array of three Williams tubes they wired together the simplest stored- program computer they could think of (Fig. 8.1). In later life Kilburn was at pains to deny that Turing had contributed an
We write void as an abbreviation for the type s{}. The set of types is equipped with a partial order: we say t t, or t is a subtype of t, if both t, t are structures and fields of t are a prefix of the fields of t . Note that every structure type is a subtype of void....

Assuming this residual emission is from unresolved stellar sources, the total B-type-equivalent stellar content in G5.89-0.39A and B would be 75 stars, consistent with an earlier estimate of the total stellar mass of hot stars in G5.89-0.39. We have also looked at the variability of the ...
16This kind of objection can be countered by two striking facts: first of all, there is the use in some manuscripts, be they in verse or in prose―and of various con-tent―of so-called subscripted letters(Italian = ‘codini’, that is ‘little tails’). This involves the final ...
every subscript of every subscripted variable was on every occasion checked at run time against both the upper and the lower declared bounds of the array. Many years later we asked our customers whether they wished us to provide an option to switch off these checks in the interests of...
The presence of vegetation increases the intensity of the backscattered microwave, in part because the specular scattering from the water surface is reflected back towards the radar by the vegetation [12]. This same backscatter signal, as measured consecutively by an orbiting radar, can be used to...
