Characterising radio telescope software with the Workload Characterisation Framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a modular framework, the Workload Characterisation Framework (WCF), that is developed to reproducibly obtain, store and compare key characteristics of radio astronomy processing software. As a demonstration, we discuss the experiences using the framework to characterise a LOFAR calibration and imaging pipeline.

REP - chaRacterising and Exploiting Process component: Results of Experimentation
Software processes require continuous innovations to improve their quality and increase their maturity. Integrating process components, proposed in previous published works, to improve a process requires the formalisation of their informal description. This requirement stems from the need to understand and evaluate how adequate the process components are to the requirements of the innovation an...
متن کاملCharacterising approximate problem-solving by partially fulfilled pre- and postconditions
In Software Engineering, the functionality of a program is traditionally characterised by preand postconditions: if the preconditions are fulfilled then the postconditions are guaranteed to hold, but if the preconditions are not fulfilled, no postconditions are guaranteed at all. In this paper, we study how the functionality of a program is affected when the preconditions are only partially ful...

We present a framework for characterising hospital scenarios involving the patient chart, a binder containing the most recent and essential information about one or several patients in the ward (i.e. laboratory results, information about medications, and plans for further treatment). The paper-based chart is regarded as simple, efficient, and handy for mobile use by patient-care teams. However,...
متن کاملUsing Small Radio Telescopes for Very Long Baseline Interferometry
Throughout the summer development has continued on the next generation of the Small Radio Telescope for use as a Very Long Baseline Interferometry type interferometer. This paper discusses the difficulties with setting up this new interferometer and presents some results obtained using this small radio telescope interferometer. We used 3 small radio telescopes to form one baseline of about 5 me...
