![]() minor inclination correction, landing leg damper control, light control) will be used to perform important tasks (e.g. You mean that processors that are used for unimportant tasks (e.g. I will be adding some modified parts as well (a universal container as kOS processor f.e.). I probably will remove (parts of those) mods when they're not used to save memory space. Mods which are not essential (but can provide eye candy or might be usefull):Īviationlights - lighting the probe and possibly also as "indicatorlights".Īgext / Modactions - For easy programming specific tasks like opening/closing solarpanels KSP 1.1.3 64 bits - The 64 bits 1.0.0 kOS version works correctly (the 0.21.1 version did not). Procedural parts - Will only be used if it is unavoidable.Scansat - For science subsystem and testing. MechJeb 2/MechJeb 2 embedded - Will only be used to display flightdata and will be removed when a kOS processor does that. KOS (1.0.0) - Will be upgraded to release 1 as soon as some bugs in that relase are solved. Universal Storage - Provides an easy way of placing multiple processors on a craft (i don't like to use multiple HAL9000's for several reasons) I will be using several mods, some are really required, some are not. The third reason is that the complete system can be less complex and more modular. After a controllerfailure one function becomes unusable but not the entire computer. It makes the computer faster and more fault tolerant. With controllers, the CPU can delegate certain tasks and continue with it's own workload. Most probably, it would render the computer impractical. In theory, the CPU could do all those tasks but it would make the computer very slow. Any computer, from large mainframecomputers to even mere PC's, has controllers which take care of specific tasks. If a processor halts, it must be reset bij another processor on the probe and not by typing commands in the terminal window.Īnother reason why using multiple processors are required has to do with computerarchitecture. In the system i want to (will!) develop, there will be no hidden processor(s) like that. That means that there must be at least one other processor on board which takes care of communication and such. kOS does allow the user to control the craft after such a fault occurs. ![]() With just one processor, your probe is essentially dead and a total loss. Any error will stop the processor executing the program. First of all, errors (in code and hardware) WILL happen. You might ask yourself: Why a multiprocessor system, Isn't one processor enough? Well, frankly one processor is definitely not enough. My goal is to develop a system consisting of software and processors with kOS which is as fault tolerant as possible in KSP. In the real world it is not uncommon that a probe develops one or more problems. The combination, in the form of automated probes, even more so. ![]() So if I add a bookmark to PCManFM's side pane and immediately run 5m, this is what I see: $ 5mħ209279 4 -rw-rw-r- 1 dkb dkb 578 Jan 8 21:36 /home/dkb/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarksħ739601 4 -rw-rw-r- 1 dkb dkb 122 Jan 8 21:35 /home/dkb/.config/kupfer/ħ739514 4 -rw-rw-r- 1 dkb dkb 36 Jan 8 21:35 /home/dkb/.config/kupfer/ħ739653 8 -rw-rw-r- 1 dkb dkb 4726 Jan 8 21:35 /home/dkb/.config/kupfer/mnemonics.Computers and space have fascinated me for as long as i can remember. It lists files that have been created or modified in the last 5 min but excludes certain folders and files that I'm not interested in knowing about. These are stored in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks even though the version of PCManFM installed by default in Lubuntu 14.04 is gtk-2.0.īy the way, I use this alias when I want to find what's recently changed in my home folder: alias 5m='find ~/ ! -path "/home/dkb/.mozilla/*" ! -path "/home/dkb/.cache/*" ! -path "/home/dkb/.config/google-chrome/*" ! -path "/home/dkb/.config/libreoffice/4/user/*" ! -path "/home/dkb/.dropbox/*" ! -name "recently-used.xbel" -mmin -5 -type f -ls' Shortcuts appearing in the side pane are termed "bookmarks" in PCManFM.
