This is a comprehensive user guide for the PlanePlotter virtual radar software program that receives and decodes live digital position reports from aircraft and plots their positions and movements on air traffic control type charts. PlanePlotter provides a radar-like display of not only local aircraft but aircraft around the world that are transmitting the digital messages in the ACARS, ADS-B and HFDL formats. PlanePlotter plots aircraft positions, altitudes and times decoded from the message traffic that it receives including embedded position reports, AMDAR reports and ADS reports contained in ACARS messages and ADS-B position reports received by a variety of virtual radar boxes including the Kinetic-Avionic's SBS1(tm), AirNav System's RadarBox(tm), the PlaneGadget Radar and the Mode-S Beast virtual radar receivers. The book has some 300 pages and includes 200 illustrations and diagrams. The latest edition covers the functions of Multilateration, Beamfinder and Conditional Expressions.
The Linux Programming Interface (TLPI) is the definitive guide to the Linux and UNIX programming interface—the interface employed by nearly every application that runs on a Linux or UNIX system. In this authoritative work, Linux programming expert Michael Kerrisk provides detailed descriptions of the system calls and library functions that you need in order to master the craft of system programming, and accompanies his explanations with clear, complete example programs. You'll find descriptions of over 500 system calls and library functions, and more than 200 example programs, 88 tables, and 115 diagrams. You'll learn how to: –Read and write files efficiently –Use signals, clocks, and timers –Create processes and execute programs –Write secure programs –Write multithreaded programs using POSIX threads –Build and use shared libraries –Perform interprocess communication using pipes, message queues, shared memory, and semaphores –Write network applications with the sockets API While The Linux Programming Interface covers a wealth of Linux-specific features, including epoll, inotify, and the /proc file system, its emphasis on UNIX standards (POSIX.1-2001/SUSv3 and POSIX.1-2008/SUSv4) makes it equally valuable to programmers working on other UNIX platforms. The Linux Programming Interface is the most comprehensive single-volume work on the Linux and UNIX programming interface, and a book that's destined to become a new classic.

Throughout the ages flags have been a means of cultural and national identity, communication, and a means of representation for groups and associations. Compiled by a leading authority this book is a definitive and exhaustive visual reference to international flags, from the largest countries to the smallest states. Split into two sections, the first part of the book presents a fascinating overview of the history of flags, from the 3rd century BC to the 21st century. The second section covers over 600 flags in current use, including a continent-by-continent examination of countries, territories, organizations, individuals and causes. Lavishly illustrated, this book is both a stunning reference book and an invaluable resource. Fascinating and compelling, it offers historical, geographical and political insights into one of our most ancient forms of identification and communication.
