Subject: PREDICT Version 2.0.0 - multi-user satellite tracking program
Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1999 00:13:27 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
PREDICT is a multi-user satellite tracking and orbital prediction program
written under the Linux operating system by John A. Magliacane, KD2BD.
The major features of PREDICT Version 2 include:
* Fully year 2000 compliant code.
* Designed under the Linux operating system to permit operation on a wide
and expanding variety of hardware platforms ranging from palmtops to
supercomputers (including 32-bit PCs (80386s or better) and Macintosh
PowerPCs).
* Licensed under the GNU General Public License, thereby allowing anyone
to contribute new features to the program while forever keeping the
software, and any derivative works, non-proprietary and freely
available.
* Includes a *FAST* orbital prediction mode that accurately predicts
satellite passes, providing dates, times, coordinates, slant range
distances, and sunlight and optical visibility information. Predictions
are displayed in tabular form and may be saved to a log file for later
reference or printing.
* Includes a visual orbital prediction mode that displays satellite
passes that are potentially visible to the ground station by optical
means.
* Features a real-time single satellite tracking mode that provides
dynamic information such as sub-satellite point, ground station azimuth
and elevation headings, Doppler shift, path loss, slant range, orbital
altitude, orbital velocity, footprint diameter, orbital phase, the time
and date of the next AOS (or LOS of the current pass), orbit number,
and sunlight and visibility information for a single satellite, while
providing live azimuth and elevation headings for both the sun and
moon.
* Features a multi-satellite tracking mode that provides sub-satellite
point, azimuth and elevation headings, sunlight and visibility, and
slant range distance information for all 24 satellites in the program's
current database on a real-time basis. Azimuth and elevation headings
for the sun and moon are also provided, as a well as a listing of the
AOS dates and times for the next three satellites expected to come into
range of the ground station.
* Provides static information such as semi-major axis of ellipse, apogee
and perigee altitudes, and anomalistic and nodal periods of satellite
orbits.
* Includes command line options that permit alternate ground station
locations to be specified or alternate orbital databases to be read and
processed by the program, effectively allowing an UNLIMITED number of
satellites to be tracked and managed. Additional options allow any
orbital database file to be automatically updated using NASA Two-Line
element data obtained via the Internet or via Pacsat satellite without
having to enter the program and manually select menu options to update
the database.
* Features a voice mode that allows live azimuth and elevation headings
of a satellite to be articulated to an observer to assist in locating a
satellite by optical means.

LYNX LAUNCHES LINUX INITIATIVE FOR THE EMBEDDED MARKET
Strategy includes Linux for embedded applications,
development environment, and comprehensive product and support services.
SAN JOSE, Calif. - November 29, 1999 - Lynx Real-Time Systems, Inc., today
announced an open-source product and support services initiative to extend
Lynx into the emerging embedded Linux market space. Starting immediately,
and through the coming year, Lynx will offer products and support services
to address a broad range of embedded software development under the Linux
operating system.
The Lynx Linux Initiative (L2I) is supported by five elements:
* BlueCat Linux, a version of Linux optimized for embedded applications
developed by Lynx and offered to the open source community, available in
January 2000.
* Version 4.0 of the LynxOS operating system with full binary compatibility
with Linux, available in mid-2000.
* A Lynx open development environment for the Red Hat Linux host, available
immediately.
* New technical support, consulting and training services for Linux
developers working in embedded applications, available immediately.
* Endorsements from more than 20 software and hardware vendors in the
embedded computing market.
(See "Lynx Launches Support, Training, Consulting Services for Developers of
Embedded Linux Applications," Nov. 29, 1999 and "Lynx Announces X Partners
for Embedded Linux Initiative, Nov. 29, 1999. Also refer to www.lynx.com
for L2I presentation.)
"L2I provides a direct path for Linux developers to enter the embedded
market. It also opens the path for the embedded market, including Lynx, to
embrace the open-source model of the Linux world," said Bill Hogan,
president and CEO of Lynx. "This is a perfectly logical step for Lynx,
based on our 12-year history of supporting industry standards. We can now
offer customers the flexibility of working with an open-source Linux
operating system or a fully deterministic RTOS kernel."
Linux Product Support:
The Lynx BlueCat Linux will be based on Red Hat Version 6.1, containing the
Linux 2.2.5-15 kernel, and will be shipped with the Lynx open development
environment capable of creating variations of the embedded Linux operating
system, according to user requirements.
The BlueCat Linux development environment will support cross development of
Linux embedded applications using a PC running Red Hat Linux as the
development host.
To assure production-worthy quality and reliability, the BlueCat Linux
product will be qualified through the extensive automatic testing, quality
assurance and software refinement process used for the current Lynx
products.
Additionally, Lynx will extend Linux to include the industry-leading,
high-availability technology currently available in Lynx solutions.
In mid-2000, Lynx will release in LynxOS 4.0 a multi-threaded, full-featured
operating system, capable of running Linux applications for hard real-time,
embedded applications. This will extend the power and flexibility of LynxOS
to include portability of Linux drivers, protocol stacks and other software
applications.
The Lynx open development environment is now available with LynxOS 3.1, the
latest version of the Lynx real-time operating system, allowing Linux
applications developers to create real-time applications from within the
context of a Linux operating-system platform. Developers use the extensive
interactive development and debugging tools from Lynx while working on a
Linux-based workstation to cross compile on their chosen embedded
microprocessor.
Linux Technical Support:
Lynx is expanding its existing technical support, training and consulting
services to customers developing embedded software applications on Linux.
Consulting services are immediately available to extend the quality and
reliability of embedded Linux products from a recently expanded staff of
software professionals with in-depth knowledge and experience in embedded
software design, operating system design, and software development tools.
In January, Lynx will offer specialized training programs and the industry's
first long-term support program for embedded Linux.

Date: Wed, 15 Dec 1999 00:35:47 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Workstation Solutions First to Deliver Enterprise-Ready Backup and Recovery
System for Red Hat Linux
AMHERST, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 14, 1999--
Quick Restore Enables Central Administration of Heterogeneous Networks from
an Economical Linux Server.
Workstation Solutions, supplier of the flexible and easy-to-use Quick
Restore(tm) backup and recovery solution, today announced Quick Restore 2.6,
the first centrally administered, enterprise-ready,network backup system for
Red Hat(R) Linux servers and clients.
Linux-based Quick Restore backup servers can manage backup and recovery in
networks of Linux, Windows NT, commercial UNIX(R) and Network Appliance(tm)
systems. Quick Restore on Linux is seamlessly integrated with all other
platforms, allowing backup and recovery of UNIX, Windows NT(R) or Network
Appliance data to tape libraries attached to Linux servers.
"We chose Quick Restore because it can back up our Auspex(R) file servers to
multiple tape libraries, maximizing our equipment investment and keeping us
well within our backups windows," said Kirk Patton, System Administrator at
Advanced Micro Devices. "Now, the availability of the Quick Restore server
on Linux enables us to move to a Linux-centric environment, resulting in
significant savings in server hardware."
Linux, paired with economical Intel(R)- or AMD(tm)-based servers,provides a
low-cost alternative for enterprise backup servers. With over 10 million
users worldwide, Linux servers are popular as web servers and are
increasingly found in enterprise environments. The availability of a
rock-solid data protection application such as Quick Restore will advance
the acceptance of Linux in departmental and enterprise environments.
"This offering represents a strategic evolution in our commitment to the
Linux community, which started over a year ago with the availability of a
free Quick Restore client on Linux," said Jim Ward president of Workstation
Solutions. "With Quick Restore 2.6, users can now configure a heterogeneous
backup environment using Linux servers."
Quick Restore 2.6 also expands support for Network Appliance filers using
the Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP). Network Appliance users can now
back up NetApp filers to a centrally located UNIX or Linux backup server
with an attached tape library. With the addition of this new feature, Quick
Restore provides the broadest set of choices available for configuring a
Network Appliance backup environment. (Please see separate release dated
December 13, 1999 at http://www.worksta.com.(1))
Availability
Quick Restore 2.6 for Red Hat Linux 5 and 6 will be available in 30 days.
Linux single server licenses start at $2,500. Unlimited Linux client
licenses for Red Hat Linux 4.2, 5 and 6 are free. For additional information
on all Workstation Solutions products, please contact Workstation Solutions
sales at 800-487-0080 or 603-672-8600, via email at sales@worksta.com, or
