... If your workstation can run any of the standard data reduction systems, it can run Draco. ... The Draco source files and executable will require about 20Mb of disk space. Draco is written in Common Lisp, specifically Allegro Common Lisp 4.2 beta by Franz, Inc. The distribution includes an executable image, so you don't need a Lisp system at your site.

... The pinhole simulation program is a computationally and memory intensive task. ... A parallel version was developed instead, to enable distributed processing on a cluster of workstations. The program makes use of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard for parallel processing, implemented as an API (Application Programming Interface) to the Local Area Multicomputer (LAM) programming environment developed at the Ohio Supercomputer Center. ...

... There are compelling reasons for the pulsar community to utilise a standard data storage format. For example, standardisation of file formats significantly decreases the amount of effort required to integrate new instruments into the analysis chain. ... Accordingly, we have defined PSRFITS as a standard FITS-based format for pulsar data files. ... For example, the first line of Processing History HDU contains information about the data acquisition program and the initial structure of the file. ...

... Standard-star files, however, must also have the standard photometric values (in place of the rough MAG column). The column label should be the usual name of the magnitude or index in the column, e.g., V or U-B or c1; see Table . ... MIDAS table files do not distinguish between upper and lower case in column labels. Thus, while it is possible to use 'u-b' as a column label for the uvby system, it cannot be distinguished from 'U-B' by programs or MIDAS procedures that read these files. ...
