  1. EVLA Postprocessing Algorithms EVLA Advisory Committee Meeting, March 19-20, 2009 • Bob Dickman and Frazer Owen • New Mexico Operations

  2. Algorithm development working group (I) • The EVLA project is well-positioned to deliver both its hardware and its data to the archive • As part of its responsibilities, the CASA group is prepared to deliver the algorithms necessary to analyze most EVLA data sets (cf. Brian Glendenning’s talk) • However, the development of certain post processing algorithms unique to the EVLA is a significant general challenge, especiallythose required to reduce low-noise, wide-field, low frequency data sets • Despite progress (see talks by Bhatnagar & Rau and by Rau), essentially, no one has yet worked out how to do this efficiently with very large, high fractional bandwidth data set March 19, 2009 EVLA Advisory Committee

  3. Algorithm development working group (II) • An algorithm development working group has recently been established by NRAO • to support and focus the development of the most challenging algorithms • The goal for these special algorithms is to deliver them at a pace to match the schedule on which EVLA hardware capabilities will be delivered to the community • The group will: • define the needed algorithms development plan, at first just EVLA • coordinate with Algorithm Developers who will have a fraction of their functional time assigned to algorithm development • monitor the progress of the algorithm standard package implementation • organize commissioning by SciStaff • review feedback from the community • The group’s work will be coordinated with that of CASA March 19, 2009 EVLA Advisory Committee

  4. Initial staffing: ADWG • Project Manager: Gareth Hunt • Project Scientist: Frazer Owen • Contributing members will include: Bhatnagar, Moellenbrock, Golap, Myers, Kogan, Greisen, Cotton, Fomalont, Reid, Uson • Oversight committee: Hunt, Owen, Butler, B. Glendenning March 19, 2009 EVLA Advisory Committee
