  1. EVLA Correlator CoDR P. Napier Overall EVLA Project Plan EVLA Correlator CoDR Nov 2, 2001.

  2. EVLA Project Status • Project currently funded by NSF for planning work. • Expect construction approval by National Science Board on 14 Nov., 2001. Funding expected at $ 5+ M/yr. • All areas of the project currently in requirements definition, design and prototyping phase. Transition phase compatibility a significant design driver. • Key requirement for this correlator review is to ensure that the requirements are complete and understood. EVLA Correlator CoDR Nov 2, 2001.
