Statistical Software, Siftware and Astronomy

1997
This paper discusses statistical, data analytic and related software that is useful in the realm of astronomy and spaces sciences. The paper does not seek to be comprehensive, but rather to present a cross section of software used by practicing statisticians. The general layout is first to discuss commercially available software, then academic research

The Future of Software Systems for Astronomy

2013
What does the future hold for software systems for astronomy? Will the demand continue to rise for software tailored to ground-based observatories (e.g., AO software); or will it retreat? Will the promise of “software engineering” keep software projects on schedule and improve the end product? What market movers (gaming? social networking? smart phones?

Senior capstone: A software defined radio design for amateur astronomy

2013 3rd Interdisciplinary Engineering Design Education Conference, 2013
This paper describes a unique interdisciplinary Senior Design Capstone project to design and implement a Software Defined Radio (SDR) receiver that emulates the hardware-based NASA-specified Radio JOVE system. Radio JOVE receivers are used by amateur astronomers to detect and record Jovian radiation and solar radiation from the sun over the decametric ...

CASA, the Common Astronomy Software Applications for Radio Astronomy and VLBI: a Reference Summary

Astronomical Society of the Pacific Conference Series
CASA, the Common Astronomy Software Applications, is a user-friendly data processing software for the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) and Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and is often used also for other radio telescopes. CASA can process data from Single Dish, Aperture Synthesis, and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI ...

The Submillimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite Attitude Control Software Design

1995
The Submilimeter Wave Astronomy Satellite (SWAS) was selected for flight by NASA in 1989 as a part of the Small Explorer (SMEX) program. SWAS's primary science objective is to conduct high spectral resolution surveys of galactic molecular clouds. The SWAS Attitude Control System (ACS) is three-axis controlled, zero momentum stabilized, and is capable ...

Improving the Astronomy Software Ecosystem: Work Done, Work Needed

Astronomical Society of the Pacific Conference Series
In the past dozen years, the ecosystem around astronomy software has seen great changes, including improved infrastructure for creating, managing, indexing, storing, and archiving code, more journals in which to publish software, and better citation methods and citation tracking of computational methods. What changes are coming? How can we build on the
