The Vietnam National Space Center has recently established an observatory in Hoa Lac, near Ha Noi. The observatory is equipped with a 50 cm diameter Ritchey-Chrétien optical telescope. The authors report on first measurements illustrating its performance and demonstrate its excellence as a training[r]

The final level of detail needed to specify a model is its programmability. This describes the granularity at which the model interprets software elements of a system. At one extreme, pure hardware is specified and the model does not interpret software, fo[r]
