Participation list
I'd like the meeting participants to send e-mail to Mel Wright
and myself in order to have an attendance list for practical matters.
Agenda main items so far:
project news (BG ? 15 min ?)
report on Calibration PDR meeting (RL+others members having
participated) and implications for software requirements (1h ?)
progress on HLA (JS) (1.5 h)
offline requirements (1.5 day)
High Level Analysis news
Joe Schwarz mentions that the analysis find (in agreement with
the computer group management) that they need two more weeks to
get a better draft to be submitted for review. This provides an
occasion to present and discuss that draft to the SSR Committee
at the Berkeley meeting.
Discussion on pipeline and off-line requirements work
Steve plans to use the status of comments at the end of this week
and prepare another draft before the Berkeley meeting. But you
may go on sending comments and reply to comments after...
As several commenters stated the draft is now mainly a long wish
list, we have to start stating relative priorities. These will be
used both as a guide towards time order of implementation and as
input data for the computer management to negociate with
candidate package providers. Steve will try to include some
priorities in the next draft (to be discussed in Berkeley).
There should be a more precise definition of the different
pipelines. In particular the various tasks of the Calibration
pipeline should be sorted, grouping together items requiring
immediate feedback (telescope calibration) and short term
feedback (processing of phase and amplitude calibrators...). This
will be done by F. Gueth and P. Schilke.
The inclusion of a few simple block diagrams would be useful.
It is felt that Use Cases at this point will describe the
interaction of the various packages together and will rather be
prepared by the Analysis Group.
One should mention the calibration state of the data when input to
the pipelines (like correlation coefficients as opposed to
temperature units) and what processing has been done before
data is made available to the pipelines.
The section on 'Common Algorithms' should contain e.g. a short
description of what is computed and how with proper reference to
relevant publications and memos. R.L. proposed to write such a
thing for atmospheric modelling needed e.g. for temperature scale
calibration.
Any Other Issues
We did not discuss next phone meeting. August 1st?
