Other Sessions
| Session Description and Goal | Plenary or Required Participants | Length | Requester |
|---|---|---|---|
| Authentication and Authorization: convey what is feasible technically, what policy implications that has, and state of current prototype | Plenary? | ? | James Basney |
| OCS Middleware: further refine ICDs | "Principal System Software Interactions" Group | 4 hr? | Gregory Dubois-Felsmann |
| Engineering and Facilities Database: define responsibilities and technical details of replication of "verbatim" copies of EFD | Dave Mills | 1 hr? | Donald Petravick |
| Visualization: work with Camera team on improving current visualization system | Unknown User (jjt) | 2 hr? | Unknown User (xiuqin) |
| Wavefront estimation: The T&S group have developed a wavefront estimation code which we plan to incorporate into the DM stack as part of 02C.04.03 (PSF estimation). Discuss its current state, what work remains to be done, and how best to proceed with integration. | Sandrine Thomas, Unknown User (schandra) | 2 hr? | John Swinbank |
| End to End Computing Support for Observing: walk though of capabilities/expectations on 1) "quick look" capabilities provides by the T&S project, 2) uses of the commissioning cluster, and 3) L1 processing system. | TBD S&T people, someone to represent observing staff | 2hr? | Donald Petravick |
| Networks: Review current contracts and schedules, recent LSE-78 updates, Network Operations and Management Plan, Network End-to-End Test plan. | Chip Cox (only available after 11am on 2/24) Other FIU people remotely (need videocon support) Julio Ibarra, Jeronimo Bezerra , and Heidi Morgan Optionally Camera people who are in town for JTM (Mike Huffer, Tony Johnson), | 3 hr | Jeff Kantor |
| Virtual Observatory: Talk about current strategies and whether we should take a more focused approach on standards involvement for Summer16. | John Swinbank, Unknown User (ciardi), Mario Juric, Jacek Becla plus anyone else interested | 2 hr | Tim Jenness |
| Unicode: I would like to re-assess the lack of requirement for using Unicode in LSST. In the 2020s (and now) unicode is an accepted part of life and it seems strange that we will be unable to include names and math symbols in observing logs and processing logs. | OCS representative, SQuaRE representative, John Swinbank, Jacek Becla | 2 hr | Tim Jenness |
Python3 Migration: I would like to start planning the python3 migration of the DM software so it can be integrated into the Summer16 development plan. | John Swinbank, Simon Krughoff, Jonathan Sick | 2 hr | Tim Jenness |
Documentation & Technical Communication Tools Spearheaded by DM. This session will review the new doc and web publishing work by DM, with the goals of: seeking adoption by other groups, coordinating with the project communications, and setting goals for Summer16 development. Topics will be:
| Anyone in other groups working on technical communications and software documentation. Members of DM are especially invited to give feedback on S16 planning. Of potential interest to: Beth Willman, Unknown User (suzanne), Zeljko Ivezic, Unknown User (schandra), Peter Joachim | 1+ hr | Jonathan Sick |
| Naming: This may sound like a tongue in cheek request, but it would be good if we could spend a bit of time trying to come up with a name for the software that DM is writing. We have Qserv, Firefly, SUIT but we don't have anything for the science pipelines. This makes it hard to develop branding. | Anybody who would have an opinion. | 0.5 hr | Tim Jenness |
