... We are developing a data reduction and analysis system DASH (Distributed Analysis Software Hierarchy) for efficient data processing for the SUBARU telescope. ... Moreover, we introduced a data reduction procedure cube ( PROCube ) as a kind of visual procedure script. ... DASH is, therefore, designed as an observatory system for astronomical data reduction and analysis, which cooperates with the SUBARU observation software system and the data archival system. ... DASH aims at open architecture. ...
... In addition, an 8-CPU Origin2000 is used for computationally intensive research projects (solar system dynamics, stellar atmospheres and numerical magneto-hydrodynamics) while access to Grid technology is provided via CosmoGrid ( www.cosmogrid.ie ). ... Armagh Observatory staff regularly receive awards of telescope time on national and international facilities, and research grants from various grant awarding bodies. ... Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, USA; . ...
... We then updated to PVCam 2.7.4.2, but we still see corrupt images if we don't close and reopen the camera after every exposure sequence, and the camera sometimes fails to respond to a trigger pulse. ... Close and re-init the camera, as follows: ... pl_cam_close(0) pl_pvcam_uninit() pl_pvcam_init() . ... power off camera . ... Call pl_exp_start_cont (to start a continuous exposure sequence into a circular buffer) with a circular buffer that holds too many images and you will hang your computer. ...

Winer Observatory P.O. Box 797, Sonoita, Arizona 85637-0797, USA . ... The building is about 106 ft. long by 26 ft. wide and is divided into two parts: a shop area to the north, 54 ft. long by 26 ft. wide with parapet walls containing the control room, and the observatory area 52 ft. long by 26 ft. wide. ... Shop Wall Counterforts . ... The shop roof is suspended between parapet walls, that is, the walls are higher than the roof, to permit the observatory roof to roll unimpeded over the shop roof. ...
... Software requirements . ... Further considerations are required on Mac OS X in relation to X11 and Qt (see below). ... ds9 stable version 3.0.3 works fine with SAS 7.0.0 . ... We recommend the installation of HEASOFT version 6.0 (HEADAS), since SAS 7.0.0 was built with that version (except for Mac OS X where version 5.3 was used). Some SAS tasks require perl . ... To work with this release of SAS on any Mac OS X version, the X Windows software or X11 (a.k.a X11R6) for Mac Os X must be installed . ...
