tance less than 8ep from the point P, then X and P lie together in a connected sub-set of M every point of which is at a distance of less than e from the point P. The setM is said to be uniformly connected im kleinen if for every positive number e there exists a positive number 68 such that if P1 and P2 are two points of M at a distance apart less than 58 then they lie together in a connected s...

the mean, as the red component of the double is the stronger of the two. In other words a nebular line of slightly greater wave-length than 4649.2A would meet the requirements. There is actually such a line at 4649.5A. Both this and the one at 4267A probably exist as bright bands in the spectra of the Wolf-Rayet stars.4 The following is a summary of the wave-length comparisons which have been m...

OpenCL C + + Benedict

With the success of programming models such as Khronos’ OpenCL, heterogeneous computing is going mainstream. However, these models are low-level, even when considering them as systems programming models. For example, OpenCL is effectively an extended subset of C99, limited to the type unsafe procedural abstraction that C has provided for more than 30 years. Computer systems programming has for ...
