Data Provenance and Management in Radio Astronomy: A Stream Computing Approach [PDF]
New approaches for data provenance and data management (DPDM) are required for mega science projects like the Square Kilometer Array, characterized by extremely large data volume and intense data rates, therefore demanding innovative and highly efficient

The Gamma-Ray Astronomy Database: 1990-2002 [PDF]
I review five missions (SIGMA/GRANAT, the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory, BeppoSAX, the Interplanetary Network, and the High Energy Transient Explorer) which have contributed to a golden age of discovery in gamma-ray astronomy. The data from many of these missions and experiments have been archived and are available to the public to analyze.

The Universe on a Desktop: Observational Astronomy Simulations in the Instructional Laboratory [PDF]
Though the value of hands-on learning has long been recognised by educators, it is difficult to design laboratories in astronomy classes that present realistic astrophysical techniques to undergraduate students.

Kepler Bonus: Light Curves of Kepler Background Sources
NASA’s Kepler primary mission observed about 116 deg ^2 in the sky for 3.5 consecutive years to discover Earth-like exoplanets. This mission recorded pixel cutouts, known as target pixel files (TPFs), of over 200,000 targets that were selected to ...
