This function checks the mailbox to see if a message is available. Unlike OSMboxPend(),
OSMboxAccept() does not suspend the calling task if a message is not available.
Run following Matlab commands to make sure the installation worked correctly.
Unlike query function, filterdb does not load all waveforms to memory but returns filtered database object. This is useful when the resulting set of the query is too big to fit in memory. Consequent calls to read function can be made to read content of this filtered database object.
In recent years, the UNIX operating system has seen a huge boost in its popularity, especially with the
emergence of Linux. For programmers and users of UNIX, this comes as no surprise: UNIX was designed to
provide an environment that s powerful yet easy to use.
One of the main strengths of UNIX is that it comes with a large collection of standard programs. These
programs perform a wide variety of tasks from listing your files to reading email. Unlike other operating
systems, one of the key features of UNIX is that these programs can be combined to perform complicated
tasks and solve your problems.
One of the most powerful standard programs available in UNIX is the shell. The shell is a program that
provides you with a consistent and easy-to-use environment for executing programs in UNIX. If you have
ever used a UNIX system, you have interacted with the shell.

Written for Keil C51 V5.1 compiler, notes:
It uses big endian order, which is the same as the
network byte order, Unlike x86 systems.
Use OPTIMIZE(2)or higher so that automatic variables get shared
// between functions, to stay within the 256 bytes idata space
pHash is an implementation of various perceptual hashing algorithms. A perceptual hash is a fingerprint of an audio, video, or image file that is mathematically based on the audio or visual content contained within. Unlike cryptographic hash functions that rely on the avalanche effect of small changes in input leading to drastic changes in the output, perceptual hashes are "close" to one another if the inputs are visually or auditorily similar. As a result, perceptual hashes must also be robust enough to take into account transformations that could have been performed on the input.
Each exploration in this book is a mixture of text and interactive exercises. The exercises are
Unlike anything you鈥檝e seen in other books. Instead of multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, or
simple Q&A exercises, lessons are interactive explorations of key C++ features.
A user-space device driver can do many of the things that kernel drivers can t, such as perform a long-running computation, block while waiting for an event, or read files from the file system. Unlike kernel drivers, a user-space device driver can use other device drivers--that is, access the network, talk to a serial port, get interactive input from the user, pop up GUI windows, or read from disks. User-space drivers implemented using FUSD can be much easier to debug it is impossible for them to crash the machine, are easily traceable using tools such as gdb, and can be killed and restarted without rebooting even if they become corrupted. FUSD drivers don t have to be in C--Perl, Python, or any other language that knows how to read from and write to a file descriptor can work with FUSD. User-space drivers can be swapped out, whereas kernel drivers lock physical memory.
Features a unique program to estimate the power spectral density. The spectrum containing all significant details is calculated from a time series model. Model type as well as model order are determined automatically from the data, using statistical criteria. Robust estimation algorithms and order selection criteria are used to obtain reliable results. Unlike in FFT analysis, where the experimenter has to set the amount of smoothing of the raw FFT, the right level of detail is assessed using the data only.
The General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) allows an end user to send and
receive data in packet transfer mode within a public land mobile network
(PLMN) without using a permanent connection between the mobile station
(MS) and the external network during data transfer. This way, GPRS opti-
mizes the use of network and radio resources (RRs) since, Unlike circuit-
switched mode, no connection between the MS and the external network is
established when there is no data flow in progress. Thus, this RR optimiza-
tion makes it possible for the operator to offer more attractive fees.
