eVLBI etc. Chet Ruszczyk 11/2/11 US VLBI Technical Meeting, NM
Connectivity • Correlators • USNO (600Mbps) • Haystack (10Gbps ? ) • Antenna’s • Arecibo • GGAO (?) • Kokee (KPGO) • Mauna Kea (NRAO) • Westford (?) US VLBI Technical Meeting, Socorro
Equipment • RDBE’s • Generate • 2 / 4 / 8 Gbps • UDP / IP • Network ready • eVLBI • Storage nodes • Burst mode recorders • MarkX’s US VLBI Technical Meeting, Socorro
eVLBI • What can this mean? • Standard eVLBI approach used today • Real time • Intensives • Non-real time • e-transfers • burst Mode • Use of the cloud resources • Temporary storage • Computation resources US VLBI Technical Meeting, Socorro
Next Steps • V Series impact • vdif format • Conversion software to appropriate format • vtp • For Net to disk transfers? • real-time • non-real time • burst Mode • Is it used for disk to disk transfers? • non-real time • File transfer application? • tcp versus udp standardization US VLBI Technical Meeting, Socorro
e-transfer issues • Application requirement • US community does not have a standard disk 2 disk file transfer software • Tsunami (UDP based) • Issue with certain US ISPs • not a good neighbor based upon performance characterisitics • Alternatives • GridFTP • Difficult to install • Once installed GLOBUS (middle-ware software ) • Makes life easy • Nutscp • Engineering version only US VLBI Technical Meeting, Socorro
