TCTAP C-034 The Poseidon Trident

Topex/Poseidon Satellite Altimetry

A recently developed multiresolution estimation framework offers the possibility of highly efficient statistical analysis, interpolation, and smoothing of extremely large data sets in a multiscale fashion. This framework enjoys a number of advantages not shared by other statistically-based methods. In particular, the algorithms resulting from this framework have complexity that scales only line...

Matrix Bidiagonalization on the Trident Processor

This paper discusses the implementation and evaluation of the reduction of a dense matrix to bidiagonal form on the Trident processor. The standard Golub and Kahan Householder bidiagonalization algorithm, which is rich in matrix-vector operations, and the LAPACK subroutine _GEBRD, which is rich in a mixture of vector, matrix-vector, and matrix operations, are simulated on the Trident processor....

9 N ov 2 00 1 WEAP 034 CONVERTING EQUIPMENT CONTROL SOFTWARE FROM PASCAL TO C

The equipment control (EC) software of the GSI accelerators has been written entirely in Pascal. Modern software development is based on C++ or Java. To be prepared for the future, we decided to convert the EC software from Pas-cal to C in a first step. Considering the large amount of software, this is done automatically as far as possible. The paper describes our experiences gained using a Pas...
