... The calibration pipeline that was used for the IUE final archive, NEWSIPS, is being ported to IRAF. ... A new spectral image processing system (NEWSIPS) was constructed for a final, archival reprocessing of the IUE data archive. ... The ported pipeline will enable recalibration from the raw data or from certain intermediate stages, will allow for different choices of reference files, and will accommodate the use of more appropriate processing techniques at intermediate stages. ...
