ADONIS is a complex but user-friendly adaptive optics (AO) instrument for the European Southern Observatory 3.6-m telescope. ADONIS is composed of several interacting parts, including the astronomer. Multiple parameters innuence the system performance and they are diicult to handle by the astronomer. A multi-agent, distributed, and message oriented control system is designed. The communication ...

In this paper we summarize the best practices in design, implementation and deployment of the efficient on-the-job training system in the modern organization. Later the ADONIS on-the-job training system developed in our organization is presented. Although it was initially targeted at the simultaneous use by many small and medium size enterprises the ADONIS system with its distributed and scalab...

ADONIS is an adaptive optics user friendly instrument for the ESO 3.6-m telescope. The modal control technique is presented as a tool for optimizing the control of ADONIS. The perturbed wavefront is spread over a base of modes treated by the system in terms of their behavior with respect to the observing conditions (turbulence characteristics, anisoplanatic angle and star magnitude). This optim...

Adonis aestivalis (summer pheasant-eye) is an annual plant with a crimson flower, distributed in southern Europe and Asia. The plant has large buttercup-like blossoms and soft, fern-like leaves. It blooms in spring and is often found as a weed in cereal fields. Like other Adonis spp., the plant produces cardiac glycosides. It is used in remedies for mild weakness of the heart, especially when a...
