Starlink Software - a Grid and Web enabled future using Globus?
The rapid development of AstroGrid within the UK community has made it important that as much existing data analysis software as possible is made “Grid aware”. With the geographical dispersion of resources on the Grid, web-interfaces (known as “portals”) to applications and utilities are likely to became increasingly prevalent. This paper describes preliminary work done by Starlink in these are...
متن کاملData processing software for radio astronomy
In this paper ongoing software projects among the European radio astronomy observatories are reviewed. In particular, I report on the progress in the ALBUS project which aims to enhance the data products, as well as the tools for radio astronomy data processing. In particular the capabilities of ParselTongue will be discussed. This is a programmable Python interface to classic AIPS that is now ...
متن کاملTrends in Software for Large Astronomy Projects
Current 8-10m ground-based telescopes require complex real-time control systems that are large, distributed, fault tolerant, integrated and heterogeneous. New challenges on the horizon (laser guide star, adaptive optics, 30–40m class telescopes) will bring increased complexity, where requirements cannot be cleanly isolated due to component coupling within the control and acquisition chain. More...
متن کاملSoftware for producing trichromatic images in astronomy
We present a software package for combining three monochromatic images of an astronomical object into a trichromatic color image. We rst discuss the meaning of \true" colors in astronomical images. We then describe the di erent steps of our method, choosing the relevant dynamic intensity range in each lter, inventorying the di erent colors, optimizing the color map, modifying the balance of col...
متن کاملStatistical Software, Siftware and Astronomy
This paper discusses statistical, data analytic and related software that is useful in the realm of astronomy and spaces sciences. The paper does not seek to be comprehensive, but rather to present a cross section of software used by practicing statisticians. The general layout is rst to discuss commercially available software, then academic research software and nally some possible future dire...
